SPECIFICATION AND PROCUREMENT / FIELD NOTE 39
Honeycomb Panels vs Aluminum Composite Material
Both products can have metal faces, but their cores and assembly details differ. Product labels alone cannot establish equivalence for structural, fire or appearance requirements.
What to check on your project
Compare exact skins, core, build-up, fabrication, attachment and project documentation on one sheet. Include finished rather than nominal panel dimensions when comparing mass or cost. Ask how each option treats visible edges and cutouts.
