Hello:
Looking for a material with the following characteristics:
1 Able to withstand about 350 degree F temp for 1 hr.
2 Excellent thermal insulated properties
3 Low elasticity (able to withstand strains applied by earthquake (8.9 Richter & XII Mercalli))
4 ~1/2 inch thick an comes in 4’x8′ to 4’x16′ sheets and can be cut with a saw and is durable
5 Can be attached to steel studs or trusses with screws and somewhat malleable
6 Light in weight and surface is paintable
7 Will not decompose (not biodegradable)
8 Cost less than utility grade plywood or cheap fiberboard
“Ask and thou shall receive”
Thanks

That's one hell of an earthquake you're expecting there in Oklahoma. Joe H
*I think this material was discussed before the Y2K crash. Too bad it's lost forever.
*sounds like drywall?
*Drywall ain't lightweight, nor does it come in 4 1/2" thick sheets.Sounds a lot like some sort of ridgid foam product (being lightweight, 4 1/2" , able to withstand 350 degrees for one hour, lightly malleable, and non decomposing)I have to agree, you sure are looking for a mighty strong earthquake in Oklahoma!So, is this a real product, or just one of those "wish I had it so I could show it off" sort of things?Just wondering'...James DuHamel
*Try this site: http://www.afsonl.com/products/09000/09700/09770.kemlite.010.a9.htmlThis company, Kemlite, makes plastic and plastic/wood panels (Kemlite panels) of many thickness and colors that are used as wall coverings in tractor trailer trailers, electronics workshops, etc.I don't know about the cost.
*Post is confusing... He means characteristic number 4 is that the material is approximately (~) 1/2 inch thick.
*The material you're looking for is in a vault in area 51.Ed. Williams

Hi Joe,
Been told that there's more quakes in Ok. than in Ca. They are just deeper so that there is not a lot of rockin that you mortals can can
feel. Quite a few years (35) have elapsed since I was involved in the building industry and I thought they had advanced like the technology
industry. Guess not!
By the way, I live in Ok. at the present time but am planning on building a house in Ca.
culater Thanks for the comment

*You snooze,You loose! Sorry for SHOUTING.
*It is drywall with added traits of #'s 2,3,& 6
*Hello James,4 ~1/2" should read #4 ~1/2" thick sheetsPlease read earlier reply.A product with those traits can be made, but I'm not sure it would be legal.Again, please read earlier reply.Thanks for your comments
*Hi Walter,Sorry for the confusion. There was 8 characteristics. The fourth (4) one started with a number(~ 1/2). The orgianal message was in a table format which would not have presented the confusion.Thanks
*Joe,Thanks for the suggestion. You are a problem solver which is an admiralble trait. It also made me start to think of some other possible solutions.
*Hi Ed,Why do you say vault in area 51? You know it is in area 31. Been there and seen it already.culater

Ken,
Do you have to tell everybody? We were told to keep that quiet until it's time for the take-over. You were there for that meeting.
Geez.....some aliens have such big mouths.
Waiting for orders,
Ed. Williams
*Ken,You might also try looking at the Thomas Register online at http://www.thomasregister.com (I think that,s the address).Since they list virtually all manufacturers of nearly all products, you may find their site useful.Joep.s. I know that Area 51 uses much higher-tech materials than we are discussing here.

Hi Joe,
Are you aware of any practical way to use aerogel in home insulation? What about
in sky lights and bathroom windows and has in been cleared up enough for use in
regular windows?
I ran across an insulation on the the net called Icynene. Think it is a trade name for
polyicnene A lot of claims are made, but is it a useable product?
In what part of the country do you reside?

Ken - Sounds like super Tectum board ...
remember tectum ... How about tectum made from spun aluminum fibers bound with epoxy - would probably stand up to almost anything.

From a Canadian builder.
I'm always in search for a material that will. Try this one: FiberBond Fiber re-inforced Gypssum Wallboard Panels from Louisiana Pacific 111 SW Fifth Ave. Portland OR 97204-3601. They claim fire resistance exceeding that of 5/8 board with impact and insulating qualities. To increase thermal gain use foil underneath or Para Paints new Radiance heat reflective paints or for fire resistance use a fire retardent paint which may also be used under the radience product.
