Insulating Concrete Form Manufacturers Association

With ICFs, a small team of carpenters can easily build a house foundation without needing specialized workers. Unlike traditional methods where you have to set up forms, place rebar, pour concrete, and remove the forms, ICF construction simply involves stacking blocks until reaching the desired height. Rebar placement is straightforward due to the unique webs in the ICF blocks. Once the concrete is poured, the forms remain in place, providing insulation, air and vapor barriers, and furring strips all in one. nexgenicf.com #1-877-669-4423 Quad-Lock Building Systems IRMCA - Indiana Ready Mixed Concrete Association Insulating Concrete Form Manufacturers Association #engineering #rebar NRMCA Group https://lnkd.in/gJ8JJnrR

We have known for a century how to build buildings to resist tornadoes, but have chosen not to, partly because of a mostly untested intuition that doing so would be impractical or too costly. In part of the US study Natural Hazard Mitigation Saves, my colleagues at ImageCat Inc. cast doubt on that intuition, finding that above-code wind design in the US would save far more than it costs. Here's a 13-minute video summarizing a recent benefit-cost analysis of a Canadian approach to above-code wind design. Like ImageCat and possibly others, I find that Canada can afford wind-resilient homes and that building them would cost Canadian society far less in the long run to own wind-resilient housing, as opposed to the least-first-cost, life-safe designs we build now. https://lnkd.in/gGwPhyek

In partnership with #NRMCA’s Build With Strength program, Ozinga became the first to pour low-carbon concrete for a new Will County Habitat for Humanity #ICF duplex in Elwood, Illinois. We thank Logix Brands Ltd., AMC Foam Technologies Inc., BASF, Andersen Concrete Pumping, American Concrete Pumping Association and Insulating Concrete Form Manufacturers Association for helping make the completion of this project possible! Concrete Delivery Professional Jorge Vieyra also shares his significant experience working with the company delivering #concrete, wishing he had chosen this path much sooner.
