Comparing Costs of Concrete Block vs Wood Frame Construction and a Better Alternative to Both
The Backbone of Modern Construction: Steel Reinforced Concrete Walls
Get Quicker Winter Construction with ICF
Are Poured Basement Walls Better than CMUs for Below-Grade Construction?
The Fox Blocks Energy Stick
How do you improve an Insulated Concrete Form wall that already out-performs most wall systems in all climates? You move the concrete mass toward the living side of the wall.
The Advantages of ICF over CMU Construction
Concrete masonry units (CMU) and insulated concrete form (ICF) walls have several features in common: energy-efficiency, durability, and good indoor environmental quality (IEQ). However, ICF is quicker and easier to install compared to CMU, which saves time and money.
