INSULATED CONCRETE FORMS
INSULATED CONCRETE FORMS ARE THE NEXT GENERATION OF BUILDING
WHAT ARE INSULATED CONCRETE FORMS?
Insulating concrete forms, or ICFs, are forms used to hold fresh concrete that remain in place permanently. They provide both structural reinforcement and insulation for the enclosed building. Benefits include:
Energy Efficient
When it comes to weather conditions, you can rely on insulated concrete forms (ICF) construction to help withstand the elements. These walls also help you achieve your net-zero goals by providing lifetime energy savings. Each insulated concrete form system is designed with energy savings and comfort in mind. The wall's thickness, or thermal mass, protects the interior of your home from drastic temperature changes outside. The foam insulation has a high R-value, which, along with the concrete, minimizes air infiltration. In the long run, the benefits of energy efficiency, disaster resistance, and durability can lower the cost of home ownership.
Quiet & SECURE
insulated concrete forms have massive concrete walls that provide a secure and sturdy feel, ensuring the safety of your family. Concrete has been tested and proven to withstand the devastating effects of hurricanes, tornadoes, and fires. In sound transmission tests, insulated concrete form walls allowed less than one-third of sound to pass through compared to wood-frame walls with fiberglass insulation.
FUNCTION & DETAILING
insulated concrete forms are made of double-insulated, steel-reinforced concrete. They are ready for your desired exterior and interior finishes and comply with tomorrow's building codes and design styles. You can design your home in any style and finish it with options like siding, stucco, or brick. Apart from the functional benefits of insulated concrete form (ICF) homes, they also add beauty to your space. Insulated concrete form systems can accommodate modern design features like cathedral ceilings, tall walls, and large openings. ICF has the potential to take any shape or form, providing an unlimited variety of curves and angles
Build better with Insulated Concrete Forms
Insulated Concrete Forms (ICFs) are the superior alternative to traditional building methods and materials.
BENEFITS OF Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF)
Unparalleled Comfort
The use of insulated concrete forms for walls helps to maintain a comfortable indoor environment and enhances the performance of a building. This is achieved by preventing moisture from entering, regulating air flow, enabling precise climate control and reducing noise.
Strength Against the Elements
Our ICF wall assembly meets and exceeds safety/resilience/durability requirements for Division 03 Concrete, Section 031119 ICF; Whole Building Design Guide (WBDG) Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) & FEMA-ATFP Federal Military and DoD Standards FEMA-ATFP.
Lifetime of Savings
The performance characteristics of our wall assembly can reduce a building’s heating and cooling cost dramatically (up to 50%) and puts Net Zero Energy goals within reach.
As a General Contractor we will work with you, to build or remodel your home, making certain it's just the way you want it.
