In 2019, con­struc­tion indus­try trends wel­come advance­ments in build­ing meth­ods and mate­ri­als; how­ev­er, the indus­try still strug­gles with ongo­ing labor short­ages.

Whether you desire to build an above-ground or below-ground pool, you can enjoy the design flex­i­bil­i­ty of ICF pool con­struc­tion.

No, the EPS has no struc­tur­al capac­i­ty to sup­port any loads. Wood sill plates must achieve the required bear­ing from the con­crete with­in the ICF. A wood plate that can­tilevers ¹⁄₃ over the EPS and bears ²⁄₃ on the con­crete is allow­able. This can be done with a min­i­mum 2 x 6 plate. If a 2 x 4 plate is required, a taper top form should be used to extend the con­crete under the plate.
