Because Quality and Speed Matter
Certificate
An evaluation report (or certificate) is a document that presents the findings,
conclusions, and recommendations from a particular review. ICC-ES reports verify
that building products, including new and innovative ones, comply with code
requirements. ICC-ES reports provide information about what code requirements
or acceptance criteria were used to evaluate a product, and how the product
should be identified, installed and much more.
What’s in an ICC-ES Evaluation Report
ICC-ES Evaluation Reports from ICC Evaluation Service® are the most preferred resource
used by code officials to verify that new and innovative building products comply with
code requirements. The ICC-ES Evaluation Reports provide information about what code
requirements or acceptance criteria were used to evaluate the product, how the product should
be installed to meet the requirements, how to identify the product, and much more. ICC-ES
Evaluation Reports are divided into eleven major areas.

2.0 USES
Sample Structural Adhesives are used in the factory
fabrication of laminated sandwich panels supporting loads
in addition to the panel weight. See Table 1 for product
names and applicable facing and core materials.
3.0 DESCRIPTION
The Sample Structural Adhesives are one-part, moisturecured, urethane adhesives. The various adhesives within a
series have different working and curing times to
accommodate different manufacturing operations, as well
as variations in temperature and humidity. The adhesives
are brown and have a liquid specific gravity of 1.15.
They are available in 5-gallon (18.9 L) pails, 55-gallon
(208 L) drums and 2400-pound (1090 kg) totes. Storage
temperature for unopened containers is to be between
50°F and 75°F (15.6°C and 23.9°C). Containers are to be
stored indoors, protected from any water contact and out of
direct sunlight. The adhesives, when stored in unopened
containers, have a shelf life as given in Table 2. The
adhesives are to be used immediately once the containers
are opened, or are to be protected with a blanket of dry
nitrogen when standing unused.
SSA
According to ISO/IEC 17030 (developed in part by ICC staff), a third-party mark of
conformity is a protected mark issued by a body performing third-party conformity
assessment, indicating that an object of conformity assessment is in conformity
with specified requirements. Because of the rigor in its process and requiring more
than the minimum outlined in the applicable ISO standards, ICC-ES marks are the
most widely accepted and recognized around the world, and the preferred choice
by code officials and government regulators – allowing them to instantly approve
products for installation with confidence and peace of mind.
CSI Division Number––ICC-ES Evaluation Reports, and the building products represented
in them, are organized according to the Construction Specifications Institute’s (CSI)
Masterformat system.

4.1 Design:
The Sample Structural Adhesives are Type II, Class 2,
structural adhesives in accordance with the ICC-ES
4.2.2 Preparation and Application: Surfaces being
bonded are to be clean and dry. Dust, oil, grease, water,
paint and other contaminants are to be removed prior
to application of the adhesive. The adhesive must be
applied in accordance with the adhesive manufacturer’s
recommended installation instructions using the type of
applicator specified in Table 2. The adhesives are to be
applied at ambient temperatures between 60°F and 105°F
(15.6°C and 40.6°C). When the adhesive is applied to
wood, the moisture content of the wood is limited to a
maximum of 12 percent.
To ensure adhesion, the laminated sandwich panels
are to be placed under pressure in accordance with
the adhesive manufacturer’s instructions. For adhesives
applied by bead applicators, the sandwich panel
manufacturer must employ a means to verify that complete
coverage of the panel with the adhesive has occurred after
adhesive application and panel pressing are done.
5.0 CONDITIONS OF USE
The Sample Structural Adhesives described in this
report comply with, or are suitable alternatives to what is
specified in, those codes listed in Section 1.0 of this report,
subject to the following conditions:
5.1 The adhesives are used, applied and cured in
accordance with this report and the adhesive
manufacturer’s published instructions. In the event of
a conflict between the installation instructions and this
report, the more restrictive governs.
5.2 Use of the adhesive is limited to sandwich panels
specifically recognized in a current ICC-ES evaluation
report, and evaluated in accordance with Section
4.0 of the ICC-ES Acceptance Criteria for Sandwich
Panels (AC04).
5.3 Based on creep test results, the maximum allowable
design shear stress for the Sample adhesives, when
ICC-ES Evaluation Reports are not to be construed as representing aesthetics or any other attributes not specifically addressed, nor are they to be construed
as an endorsement of the subject of the report or a recommendation for its use. There is no warranty by ICC Evaluation Service, LLC, express or implied, as
to any finding or other matter in this report, or as to any product covered by the report.
