Over the years SIPA members have worked extensively with USDA's Forest Product Laboratory, DoE's Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Home Innovation Research Labs and APA – The Engineered Wood Association to build the knowledge base on the structural properties of SIPs. Click below for the official reports on these multi-year studies. Most of this SIP product research can also be found at the Forest Products Laboratory website (fpl.fs.fed.US).
Additional groups such as Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) and the rigorous California Public Utilities Commission have tested the energy performance of whole buildings made with Structural Insulated Panels.
