What is the Concrewall System?
The Schnell Home Concrewall system is an industrial solution for structural reinforced concrete walls. Prefabricated EPS panels, covered with zinc-coated steel mesh and connected by 3D connectors, create a reinforced framework for buildings.
Panels are assembled on-site and finished with shotcrete or poured concrete,
forming walls, floors, roofs, and staircases with superior performance in
strength, insulation, and seismic resistance.
This system is designed for rapid construction, energy efficiency, and long-term durability,
while complying with international building codes for residential, commercial, and industrial projects.
Types of Panels
Single Panel
Bearing structures up to 3–4 stories, partitions, and short-span floors. Finished with shotcrete on both sides.
Double Panel
Two connected panels with poured concrete core. Suitable for multi-story buildings where higher structural strength is needed.
Floor & Roof Panels
Variable thickness panels reinforced on-site. Used for slabs, roofs, and stair landings.
System Advantages
Lightweight
Reduced seismic mass, easy handling.
Energy Efficient
High thermal insulation lowers costs.
Fire Resistant
Internationally certified fire performance.
Earthquake Resistant
Tested in full-scale seismic simulations.
Versatile
Applies to walls, roofs, floors, stairs.
Storm Resistant
ICC-500 hurricane & missile resistant.
Technical Data
Raw Materials ▼
EPS (Expanded Polystyrene): Density 15–30 Kg/m³, compression resistance up to 180 KPa, thermal conductivity ~0.034–0.040 W/mK, fire reaction Class 1.
Steel: High-strength galvanized steel wire (FTK > 600 MPa), tensile strength 600–750 N/mm² depending on diameter, zinc coating ~60 g/m².
Structural Plaster Mix ▼
Applied ~3 cm thick on both sides of single panels. Recommended mix per m³:
- Cement: 350 kg
- Sand (0–5 mm): 1600 kg
- Water: 160 L (adjust per humidity)
- Polypropylene fibers: 1 kg/m³ (optional, to prevent shrinkage cracks)
Performance Tests ▼
- Compression load capacity: up to 70 tons (supports 6-story structures).
- Earthquake test: Full-scale 2-story building in Indonesia resisted 40 tons lateral force.
- Fire resistance: Certified at Western Fire Center Inc. (Kelso, WA).
- Storm & missile impact: ICC-500 & FEMA 361 compliant, resistant to 225 mph hurricanes.
- Thermal insulation: U-values between 0.56 and 0.30 W/m²K, depending on panel type.

Sustainability & Cost Savings
Schnell Concrewall delivers faster, more affordable, and eco-friendly construction. Studies show up to 50% faster build time and 30% cost savings compared to traditional RCC frame with brick infill.
With high thermal performance and lower embodied energy, these panels reduce energy bills and carbon emissions — making them a smart long-term investment.
U.S. Certifications & Resilience
Schnell panels (SCIP) produced in the U.S. through Fortified Structural Solutions are approved for use in **Miami-Dade County** and meet all **NOA requirements**.
These panels have passed **hurricane debris missile impact tests** simulating 200 mph winds, and comply with **ICC evaluation reports**, ensuring they meet rigorous U.S. building codes.
Their strength also helps reduce insurance premium costs, as insurers favor structures with greater resistance to natural disasters.
Applications Worldwide
Schnell Home panels are used in residential, industrial, commercial, and public buildings. From affordable housing to multi-story apartments, schools, and resorts.
