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.

Insu­lat­ed Con­crete Form Man­u­fac­tur­er Fox Blocks brings its new­ly devel­oped web-based BIM tools to a forum focused on Fed­er­al Asset Man­age­ment.

The build­ing indus­try has seen a rel­a­tive­ly recent trend of archi­tects, design­ers, and home­own­ers mov­ing away from ener­gy con­sump­tive forms of con­struc­tion and the imple­men­ta­tion of more sus­tain­able, less expen­sive con­struc­tion meth­ods.

The NRM­CA is a mem­ber­ship orga­ni­za­tion for the con­crete indus­try and is a lead­ing indus­try advo­cate that pro­vides infor­ma­tion and updates to its mem­bers about the lat­est tech­niques, mate­ri­als and tech­nolo­gies.
