Curved Caps Raise Corrugation StrengthConstruction concept increases strength-to-weight ratio of corrugated panels. Flat caps are replaced by curved caps in new concept for constructing corrugated panels. Geometry utilizes curved cap for wider cap/web attachment. Beading web prevents local buckling in web while allowing maximum separation between cap strips. Geometry offers significant weight saving over conventional geometry for wide range of loading.
