| Abstract | The purpose of this study is to develop artificial log composites with light-weight andlow thermal conductivity properties, and to demonstrate the production of prefabricatedmodular home. The artificial log composites were designed and produced with fivedifferent types of pipe including: polyvinyl chloride pipe (PVC Pipe), PVC pipe reinforcedwith recycled paper pulp cement core, recycled paper pulp cement reinforced with waterplastic bottle core, recycled paper pulp cement reinforced with PVC pipe core, and recycledpaper pulp cement reinforced with round bar steel. The physical, mechanical, and thermalconductivity properties of the artificial log composites were investigated and compared tocommon building materials in the market. Then the proper artificial log composites wereselected to produce the prefabricated wall panels for demonstrating the production ofprefabricated modular home. From the results, it found that the artificial log compositesfrom recycled paper pulp cement reinforced with PVC pipe core was the proper compositematerial which possessed good properties and low cost. It was produced and installed onprefabricated modular homes easily and rapidly and could follow the expected work plans.The total cost of the prefabricated modular home was 11,415 Baht/square meter. Finally,this artificial log composite is a new alternative material for producing modular homes inthe commercial business. |
