Abstract
Static behaviour and failure modes of single-span lightweight sandwich panels are well known in general and several design guidelines and recommendations have been published concerning the determination of the resistance values for the design. At intermediate supports continuous sandwich panels are loaded by high bending moments and transverse support reactions simultaneously, which leads to nonlinear interactions between the stresses caused by the bending moment arid support reaction. The interaction failure modes have not been introduced on acceptable level in the current recommendations. The paper presents experimental and analytical results concerning the static behaviour and strength of the intermediate support area and further, makes proposals of new calculation models for the serviceability limit state design and reports important findings for the ultimate limit state design of continuous sandwich panels.

Design Models of Continuous Sandwich Panels
Static behaviour and failure modes of single-span lightweight sandwich panels are well known in general and several design guidelines and recommendations have been published concerning the determination of the resistance values for the design. At intermediate supports continuous sandwich panels are loaded by high bending moments and transverse support reactions simultaneously, which leads to nonlinear interactions between the stresses caused by the bending moment arid support reaction. The interaction failure modes have not been introduced on acceptable level in the current recommendations. The paper presents experimental and analytical results concerning the static behaviour and strength of the intermediate support area and further, makes proposals of new calculation models for the serviceability limit state design and reports important findings for the ultimate limit state design of continuous sandwich panels.
