Step 3: Pay attention to the thickness of large outdoor screen panels

 

• Thickness selection: The thickness of large outdoor screens made of weathering steel directly affects their strength, durability and aesthetics.
• Thickness and strength: The thicker the screen, the higher its strength, the better its wind and pressure resistance, especially in large outdoor environments, which can better ensure its stability. Thickness and durability: Thicker weathering steel plates can better resist the influence of the external environment and extend their service life.
• Thickness and cost: As the thickness increases, the cost will also increase accordingly. Therefore, when choosing the thickness, it is necessary to consider strength, durability and budget comprehensively.

Common thickness selection suggestions:

• Below 3mm: Suitable for indoor decoration or small-area outdoor screens, light and beautiful, but relatively weak in strength.
• 3-5mm: Suitable for general outdoor environments, taking into account both beauty and strength.
• Above 5mm: Suitable for large outdoor screens or high wind pressure areas, with high strength and good durability.
