Modularised wall panels are increasingly used in building and construction. A new double-skin composite (DSC) wall system technology uses clinch seams to combine two roll-formed open section profiles into a hollow steel shell that is then filled with a light-weight concrete foam and can provide a fire-rated DSC solution for use in commercial and high-rise buildings. One important material parameter for the application is the panel performance in wind loading. This study presents a first fundamental analysis of the structural behaviour of the new DSC wall panel relevant to wind loading. For this, 3-point and 4-point bending tests combined with in situ camera analysis are performed and complimented with the analysis of seam strength and the concrete material parameters. The experimental results provide the first experimental evidence that the aerated concrete core material of the DSC panel only has a minor effect on the wall performance in bending. Most of the bending loads are absorbed by the tensile and compressive deformation of the steel outer shell and the shear deformation near the clinch seam. In this way, failure at maximum load is not initiated by concrete cracking but by steel sheet buckling or a mixed failure mode that combines steel buckling and seam opening.
