1. Full Product Description HulaSign panels consist of two sheets of aluminium, bonded to a polyethylene core. The panel is available in a range of polyester paint finishes in both standard and custom sizes.
More versatile HulaSign can be used in all forms of signage: • Exhibition stands • Illuminated signage and light boxes • Indoor and outdoor signage boards • Shop fitting and shop front design • POS displays • Directional and way finding signage • Show rooms More availability HulaSign is stocked in 1250 x 3000 x 3mm white panels with a skin gauge of 0.21mm. With a polyester finish these white panels are perfect for laminating, silk-screening or painting. HulaSign can be manufactured as large as 1500 x 5800 and is also available in 2mm thickness. Additional colours and finishes are available on request. Minimum order quantities are only 1000m2. More sense HulaSign is incredibly lightweight and yet surprisingly rigid. Add its superior flatness and it is a substrate that shouts signage. No longer will the signage be victim to warping, denting or general untidiness. HulaSign ensures that the print on the surface will fade long before the substrate does. More cost effective HulaSign leverages off the immense success of HulaBond, SA’s largest selling composite panel, to ensure that its prices are substantially cheaper than other imported composite panels. HulaSign can be used internally and externally, inland and at the coast. A versatility that ensures HulaSign will meet all your signage requirements. In addition, the product is fully recyclable thus reducing your carbon footprint as a user. More products NuKlip is South Africa’s only branded shopfront system; HulaBond is the biggest selling composite panel in South Africa; Coastal is a complete upmarket fenestration system; HBS also has a full range of engineering extrusions and flat sheet to compliment HulaSign.
1.1 Product attributes
L ightweight and rigid T he composite structure of HulaSign panels provides high rigidity at a fraction of the weight compared with the panels of single sheet construction. Flat surface T he painted sheet used in the construction of the panel undergoes a special tension levelling operation; ensuring panels are superior in surface smoothness and sheet flatness. Formability S haping of the panel is a straightforward process. The panel can be easily curved to tight radii using pyramid rollers or a brake press. Folding of the panel can be accomplished by routing through one of the aluminium cover sheets and most of the plastic core whereafter the panel can be folded by hand or using a simple folding tool. Machinability T he HulaSign is easily cut, punched, drilled and machined using standard woodworking and metalworking equipment. Polyester paint finish O ffers a high UV and weather resistance and is suitable for screen-printing, the application of adhesives and post-painting using the liquid spray technique. Vibration damping T he polyethylene core of the HulaSign exhibits excellent sound attenuation properties. The vibration loss factor on the panel is approximately six times better than an equivalent solid aluminium sheet. Technical assistance H BS products are fully supported. Further information and technical assistance are provided to address requirements on specific products.

2.2 Load deflection properties
Wind is a dynamic phenomenon. The fluctuations in the wind forces result in dynamic responses of the building. The magnitude of this response will depend upon factors such as the turbulence of the wind and the size, shape, weight, stiffness and dampening characteristics of the building and building elements.

However, for the majority of buildings the dynamic response effects are small and a static wind loading in which the wind forces are based on a peak gust speed will suffice. It should also be noted that wind-induced vibration of light, flexible roof structures or claddings could lead to loosening of fasteners and on occasions to fatigue failure, eventualities which can be easily prevented through good design.
