Spandrel panels have been devised to sit in a cold roof space between two dwellings to create an acoustic separation and fire resistance between properties. They are made on-site in our factory and delivered on Bartram’s own fleet of lorries
Bartram spandrel panels are generally made with TR26 timber, nail plated and covered with a fire-resistant plasterboard or a Fermacell board.
A spandrel panel design is generally determined by the architect and manufactured in accordance with the STA (Structural Timber Association, of which Bartram are Gold members) and the TRA (Trussed Rafter Association, of which Bartram are also members). Spandrel panel products are also supplied with lifting straps integrated into the manufacture, for ease of maneuvering.
Spandrel panels provide a 60-minute firestop using either 15mm Fermacell board or two layers of 12.5mm fireproof plasterboard. They can be supplied as either:
A whole panel (depending on height and weight for transport and maneuverability); or
Two panels butted together (strip joints would be required in the same material and thickness of the spandrel covering).
Acoustic Spandrel Panels should meet sound regulation requirements set out in The National Building Regulations, following their guidance on robust details.

Gable spandrel panels are constructed on-site similarly to standard spandrel panels, however they are covered with a structural sheathing board and a breather membrane on the outer side.
These types of spandrel panels are designed to minimise the need for working at height. Gable restraint straps are used to fix the gable panel into place once craned into position.
For more information about the gable panel restraint system, please refer to this detailed guide.
