ICF con­struc­tion for com­mer­cial build­ings has sky­rock­et­ed over the past few years. ICF ben­e­fits rang­ing from sound insu­la­tion to dura­bil­i­ty to build­ing strength and dis­as­ter resis­tance have piqued a lot of inter­est for builders and archi­tects. But it has some scratch­ing their heads, mis­tak­en­ly think­ing ICF is more expen­sive and then won­der­ing, ​“Is ICF con­struc­tion cost worth it?”

Debunk the most com­mon ICF home prob­lems myths and uncov­er the real facts about insu­lat­ed con­crete form con­struc­tion and per­for­mance.

Build­ing a new home starts with a series of tech­ni­cal choic­es that define long-term per­for­mance.

Con­crete pump­ing has changed the way con­trac­tors place con­crete on job sites. Rather than haul­ing heavy loads in wheel­bar­rows or rely­ing on cranes and buck­ets, a con­crete pump deliv­ers liq­uid con­crete through a sys­tem of hoses, pipes, or booms — direct­ly to the point of place­ment.

Exte­ri­or wind dam­age is respon­si­ble for 25% of all home­own­er insur­ance claims. That doesn’t include the inte­ri­or loss­es that occur when dam­aged win­dows and roofs let rain wreak hav­oc inside. While we can’t pre­vent wind­storms, we can lessen their dam­age by plan­ning home designs with wind-resis­tance as a top pri­or­i­ty.

Build­ing a den­tal office involves metic­u­lous plan­ning, both in terms of design and finances. One of the most com­mon ques­tions that aris­es is, ​“how much does it cost to build a den­tal office?” The answer can vary sig­nif­i­cant­ly based on sev­er­al fac­tors, includ­ing loca­tion, size, and cho­sen mate­ri­als, but know­ing the most impor­tant para­me­ters can help keep costs in line. This arti­cle delves into the spe­cif­ic com­po­nents and expens­es asso­ci­at­ed with build­ing a den­tal office.

ICFs have been used with great suc­cess for projects such as hotels, the­atres, mul­ti-sto­ry res­i­den­tial, office, retail, mixed-use retail, edu­ca­tion­al projects and all man­ner of pub­lic works and fed­er­al mil­i­tary appli­ca­tions. How­ev­er, some peo­ple argue that Steel Fram­ing is best for com­mer­cial con­struc­tion, so we decid­ed to get to the bot­tom of the ICF vs. Steel Fram­ing face-off.
