“Fox Blocks and Habi­tat for Human­i­ty have a grow­ing rela­tion­ship, built on our com­mon inter­est in pro­vid­ing home own­ers with well-built homes that are ener­gy effi­cient.”

Build­ing an ICF house allows for the appli­ca­tion of many types of exte­ri­or fin­ish­es. The choice of exte­ri­or fin­ish comes down to your per­son­al deci­sion, cost, and local styles.

ICFs have been used with great suc­cess for projects such as hotels, the­atres, mul­ti-sto­ry res­i­den­tial, office, retail, mixed-use retail, edu­ca­tion­al projects and all man­ner of pub­lic works and fed­er­al mil­i­tary appli­ca­tions. How­ev­er, some peo­ple argue that Steel Fram­ing is best for com­mer­cial con­struc­tion, so we decid­ed to get to the bot­tom of the ICF vs. Steel Fram­ing face-off.

Cre­at­ing durable struc­tures that endure time and nature is a cru­cial aspect of mod­ern con­struc­tion. Ensur­ing sta­bil­i­ty, strength, and stur­di­ness involves more than mate­r­i­al selec­tion — it requires a grasp of con­struc­tion sci­ence.

Fox Blocks presents the fol­low­ing out­line designed to help project man­agers maneu­ver the com­mer­cial con­struc­tion process from start to fin­ish.

Fox Blocks sug­gests these thir­teen tips that build­ing own­ers and project man­agers should con­sid­er before build­ing a com­mer­cial build­ing.

This arti­cle will out­line the impor­tance of con­struc­tion work­flow in com­mer­cial projects, the process­es that often take the most time dur­ing con­struc­tion, the ben­e­fits of using ICF and how specif­i­cal­ly Fox Blocks’ ICF can help save time and costs on your next project.

Today, there are many voic­es mak­ing waves in build­ing codes and green/en­er­gy-effi­cient design; none are more impor­tant than the views of local offi­cials that vote on hun­dreds of pro­pos­als to change the Inter­na­tion­al Ener­gy Con­ser­va­tion Code (IECC).
