A few sur­viv­ing hous­es caught the eye of media out­lets around the world, seem­ing­ly untouched by Hur­ri­cane Michael’s destruc­tion. What made these hous­es dif­fer­ent?

Democ­rats and Repub­li­cans came togeth­er recent­ly to intro­duce the HOMES Act in Con­gress that would pro­vide rebates up to $8000 to home­own­ers who invest in ener­gy sav­ing per­for­mance improve­ments to their homes

ICF Con­trac­tor Don Cole­man with ICF Spe­cial­ties gives the low­down on work­ing with Fox Blocks’ insu­lat­ed con­crete forms.

Dur­ing a severe weath­er event, the most crit­i­cal fac­tor for increas­ing the chances of a building’s sur­vival is pro­tec­tion of all the open­ings to the out­side. Once the wind enters the struc­ture, the pres­sure changes lead to dis­as­trous results.

We built a test wall 440 feet long x 9′-4″ tall with 24 turns, with no brac­ing or strap­ping, to test the 90 degree blocks with con­crete.

Just one way to attach your floor sys­tem to the side of a Fox Blocks wall when build­ing with Insu­lat­ed Con­crete Forms for mul­ti­ple sto­ries of con­struc­tion.

Two proven areas to remove costs are cor­ners and truss wire.

Take a tour with us through the Gym­na­si­um Bour­gade Hill­man High School in Phoenix, AZ.

We know esti­mat­ing for an ICF project can be daunt­ing if you don’t know where to start, so we’ve cre­at­ed this help­ful video tuto­r­i­al.
