Innovations in Exterior Wall Construction: What You Need to Know
For gen­er­a­tions, the con­struc­tion of exte­ri­or walls has fol­lowed tra­di­tion­al prac­tices that have pri­mar­i­ly involved wood or steel fram­ing. These meth­ods have been the back­bone of res­i­den­tial and light com­mer­cial con­struc­tion, by pro­vid­ing shel­ter, sta­bil­i­ty, and a cer­tain lev­el of insu­la­tion.

How Much Does an ICF Foundation Cost?
When it comes to build­ing a stur­dy, ener­gy-effi­cient foun­da­tion for your home, insu­lat­ed con­crete form (ICF) tech­nol­o­gy is rapid­ly grow­ing in pop­u­lar­i­ty. By pro­vid­ing supe­ri­or insu­la­tion, an ICF foun­da­tion can sig­nif­i­cant­ly reduce heat­ing and cool­ing costs. Build­ing an ICF foun­da­tion can also be eas­i­er and less labor-inten­sive than tra­di­tion­al con­struc­tion due to the light­weight mate­ri­als involved. How­ev­er, the ini­tial cost can some­times be high­er than tra­di­tion­al con­struc­tion meth­ods, so how much does an ICF foun­da­tion cost?

Maximizing Energy Efficiency and Comfort with Insulated Concrete Forms
Ener­gy costs keep climb­ing, mak­ing insu­la­tion ener­gy effi­cien­cy more impor­tant than ever. Build­ings that lose heat in the win­ter and trap it in the sum­mer waste ener­gy and dri­ve up util­i­ty bills.
