The standard structural insulated panel (SIP) – as its name suggests – is the typical configuration. This SIP is composed of the foam insulating core sandwiched between two OSB facings and bonded with urethane glue. SIPs are used as load-bearing walls and as roof insulation. SIPs can be used to completely enclose a home or building and can partition individual rooms if desired.
