3 P-02 Introduction Ezylite Astrix inorganic panel with characteristics of 100% Asbestos free, non-toxic, odourless, noncombustibility, corrosion resistance, acid-base resistance, insulation, sound and thermal insulation and honeycomb interior structure. Astrix panel is truly a lightweight wall cladding designed for all fire and acoustic rating needs, a 50mm Astrix panel achieved FRL 120/120/120, in accordance with AS/ and Non - Combustible AS/1530, 1. Astrix panels are designed with Tong $ Groove (T&G) joining system placed on the long ends for easy installation, a team of two installers can install between SQM per day without the use of heavy lifting machines or special cutting tools. The weight of a 600 x 2100 x 50mm is approximately 18 kg per panel, which is under the lifting limits endorsed by work safe Vic. Efficiency - Sufficient, predictable strength, durability and stability - Resists moisture, decay and bio-contamination - Non-toxic and non-hazardous to occupants and installers - Able to be installed efficiently and effectively, does not negatively impact on the eco systems and none of components are harvested or mined. - All components are reclaimed or recycled materials from other industries. - Does not require damaging maintenance, operations or disposal practices Applications All fire rated wall applications Highly recommended for acoustic wall applications.

4 Material Properties P-03 Thermal Properties. tested in accordance with AS/NZS , provide a value of R-3.0 in a system combining with R-2.2 fibreglass batts, making it excellent thermal efficiency with huge savings on energy bills. By increasing cavity and R value on fibreglass batts the efficiency will increase significantly. Acoustic Properties Acoustic testing achieved Rw 63+ Ctr 51, with R-2.2 Fibreglass batts on timber frame lined with 10 mm Plaster board and 50 mm.

9 P-08 Expansion Joints NOTE: Install and render to rough side of panel only Control joints must be installed to allow for structural movement. Allowance for movement must be made through the frame, Control joints must be installed at all construction joints in the building and at the following locations: Expansion joints should be placed over windows, doorways, and no more than 5 min and Max 6.00 meters apart. Horizontal expansion joints should be placed between levels to allow movements and shrinkage of floors. The details below are location of expansion joints on walls with windows and doorways.

11 P-10 Coating System 1.1 Rendering (Ezylite Panels Must be coated after installation) It is the renderer s responsibility to use the appropriate compounds in the coating system sufficient to eliminate cracking of the joints under normal building settlement conditions. We recommend the use of Haymes, Quickcote or Dulux, other brands have not been used or tested on Ezylite products, and therefore we do not recommend the use of other brands. 1. Trowel on Patch approx 1 mm thick over joints then place 100mm wide alkaline-resistant 5mm weave fibre-glass mesh 160g/m2) over wet rendering. Apply aluminium angle beads to all external corners including window and door openings. Apply a 2nd layer of patch over fibreglass mesh while patch is still wet. (Allow drying time Min 24 hrs) refer to manufacturers specifications for drying periods. 2. Render entire board surface with polymer modified acrylic render Quickcote flexi patch/ Quickcote wet patch, or similar, at a minimum of 2mm thick. 3. The mesh is to be trowelled into the surface of the wet render, positioned just below the surface. Under no circumstances should the mesh be fixed to the walls and render applied over it. Overlap all fibreglass mesh sheets a minimum of 50mm. 4. Ensure the entire surface is level (taking into account the joint). Make sure that the joint is not proud of the remaining surface. Apply a second coat if the outline of the joint and fixings is not eliminated. 5. Apply trowel-on texture/colour to entire surface, Please note: all coatings must be applied and maintained in accordance with the coating manufacturer's instructions Apply by roller (or mix in with colour when trowelling) sealer to entire wall. The sealer protects the colour fading and waterproofing of wall.
