With a com­bi­na­tion of high- tech build­ing mate­ri­als and stream­lined ener­gy renew­al sources, net zero ener­gy build­ings are per­fect exam­ples of the ​“waste not, want not” con­cept.

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.

ICF’s ben­e­fits are mas­sive, rang­ing from cost sav­ings to dura­bil­i­ty, high qual­i­ty and easy instal­la­tion. If you want to learn how to save mon­ey on your next project, keep read­ing.

An audi­to­ri­um isn’t just a room with seats — it’s a space designed to shape sound, sight, and com­fort for every occu­pant. Prop­er audi­to­ri­um archi­tec­ture bal­ances acoustics, sight­lines, ener­gy effi­cien­cy, and occu­pant com­fort to cre­ate an invit­ing, high-per­form­ing space.

Fox Blocks announces that their ICF wall assem­bly passed the ICC 500 required Mis­sile Impact test used to deter­mine com­pli­ance of storm shel­ter and safe room design and con­struc­tion from fly­ing debris in severe high-wind weath­er events.

As cli­mate change becomes a greater issue, archi­tects are under increas­ing pres­sure to design sus­tain­able, yet high-per­for­mance build­ings. In this blog, we go over some effec­tive strate­gies you can use dur­ing the design process to enhance your building’s ener­gy effi­cien­cy

The need to incor­po­rate sound­proof­ing fea­tures in the exte­ri­or walls of today’s homes and build­ings has increased in recent decades. Urban­iza­tion, pop­u­la­tion growth, and an increase in air, rail, and high­way traf­fic all have con­tributed to a wide­spread esca­la­tion of noise pol­lu­tion.

Any sus­tain­abil­i­ty con­sul­tant will tell you that a building’s insu­la­tion is a cru­cial part in con­struct­ing an ener­gy-effi­cient, high per­for­mance home. Choos­ing the right mate­r­i­al and insu­la­tion method for a build ensures home­own­ers will have a sus­tain­able build­ing enve­lope for the life cycle of the home.
