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.

Factors That Impact Cost When Building a Commercial Retail Building
Con­struct­ing a com­mer­cial retail build­ing is a sig­nif­i­cant invest­ment that comes with its own set of com­plex­i­ties. Var­ied fac­tors can impact the over­all cost of build­ing a retail build­ing, each con­tribut­ing to the final price tag.
Is a vapor barrier required on the inside face of an ICF wall?
No. The char­ac­ter­is­tics of an ICF wall with the mass con­crete and the EPS insu­la­tion pro­vide the required vapor per­me­ance to meet build­ing code require­ments as a vapor bar­ri­er.
