At least one intermediate plate 353 may be installed between the first support plate 351 and the second support plate 352, and the intermediate plate 353 may be disposed parallel to the first support plate 351 and the second support plate 352. The support rib 354 may be disposed perpendicularly to the first support plate 351, the second support plate 352, and the intermediate plate 353 and connect the same, and a plurality of the support ribs 354 may be spaced apart from each other at intervals.

[0062] In addition, a plurality of scratch grooves 356 extending in a height direction of the wall may be formed in the second support plate 352 disposed on the outside. The scratch groove 356 may have a triangular cross-section and may be formed during an extrusion process.

[0063] The maximum width W11 of the scratch groove 356 may be 1/100 mm to 1/10 mm. The hollow panel 350 made of polycarbonate has excellent physical strength, but has low Vickers hardness. Accordingly, the hollow panel 350 is vulnerable to scratches, and the durability of the outer surface is weak. However, when the scratch groove 356 is formed in advance, external damage due to scratches may be minimized and surface strength may be improved.

[0064] Hereinafter, a wall according to a fourth embodiment of the present disclosure will be described.
