Under­stand­ing insur­ance is key when build­ing a new home — for both home­own­ers and builders.

Con­trol­ling Com­mer­cial Con­struc­tion Labor Costs with ICF

Tech­no­log­i­cal inno­va­tion is chang­ing the way we live, and homes are no excep­tion. From light­ing and secu­ri­ty to air qual­i­ty and com­fort, sys­tems that once required man­u­al input are now han­dled auto­mat­i­cal­ly, adjust­ing in real time to meet chang­ing con­di­tions.

Ener­gy effi­cien­cy in homes is vital for both eco­nom­ic and envi­ron­men­tal rea­sons, which is why builders have robust tools like the HERS Index and Ener­gy Star rat­ings to gauge and improve the ener­gy per­for­mance of build­ings.

Ther­mal con­trol defines the long-term com­fort and effi­cien­cy of every home. As ener­gy codes tight­en and build­ing sci­ence evolves, insu­la­tion per­for­mance is under more scruti­ny than ever.

In this arti­cle, we’ll explore flood proof home con­struc­tion using inno­v­a­tive mate­ri­als and tech­niques, with a focus on insu­lat­ed con­crete forms (ICFs).
