How to Build Multi-Story Buildings Faster
Whether it’s a high-rise res­i­den­tial apart­ment build­ing or a com­mer­cial com­plex, the quick­er a mul­ti-sto­ry build­ing is con­struct­ed, the soon­er it can start gen­er­at­ing rev­enue.
How does the ICF block get secured to the foundation?
The ICF blocks are held in place with either low expan­sion spray foam or a met­al starter track. The bracing/​alignment sys­tem, typ­i­cal­ly installed after the 4th course of block, also sup­ports the ICFs in place. Once the con­crete is in the wall there is no con­cern with the forms mov­ing. The con­crete is con­nect­ed to the foot­ing with rein­forc­ing dow­els.

This own­er-builder want­ed an attrac­tive, afford­able relax­ation spa that he could build him­self on week­ends. He designed the project to repli­cate a wine bar­rel pro­trud­ing from the ground, invit­ing one and all to enjoy a glass and stay awhile.
