Under­stand­ing new build­ing codes is cru­cial for con­struc­tion pro­fes­sion­als and home­own­ers alike, espe­cial­ly with the increased fre­quen­cy and inten­si­ty of hur­ri­canes and tor­na­does.

Improv­ing prof­its with­out sac­ri­fic­ing qual­i­ty — the ulti­mate goal of all home­builders. Here are five alter­na­tive build­ing meth­ods that can improve your net prof­it mar­gin by sav­ing time and mon­ey.

As builders and buy­ers look to con­tin­u­al­ly fight ris­ing costs, mak­ing small changes and minor sub­sti­tu­tions, as a way of val­ue engi­neer­ing, can large­ly impact the final cost of a build.

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

The prop­er R‑value of base­ment walls will pro­duce ener­gy-effi­cient, durable, healthy, and com­fort­able homes. Learn what R‑value your base­ment walls should have.

Con­crete is a ver­sa­tile and durable con­struc­tion mate­r­i­al that is pre­dom­i­nant­ly used in both com­mer­cial and res­i­den­tial struc­tures. It’s essen­tial to under­stand con­crete’s ther­mal prop­er­ties, specif­i­cal­ly its tem­per­a­ture lim­its, to opti­mize its strength and dura­bil­i­ty.
