Research by Texas Tech Wind Sci­ence and Engi­neer­ing Research Cen­ter has demon­strat­ed that ICF walls bet­ter pro­tect occu­pants of hous­es from wind­blown debris, than frame walls. Being hit by wind­blown debris is the most com­mon cause of injury dur­ing tor­na­does.

Under­stand­ing insur­ance is key when build­ing a new home — for both home­own­ers and builders.

We have found it to be a waste of time and ener­gy to attempt to off­set or stag­ger the block as in the pho­to to the left. By cre­at­ing a ver­ti­cal stacked seam you will be more accu­rate with the job dimen­sions and will increase your prof­it by gain­ing effi­cien­cy.

Many con­trac­tors ask us the same ques­tion: Is ICF more expen­sive than CMU? Here’s why ICF walls are less expen­sive than CMU and offer bet­ter ben­e­fits.

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).

Prop­er­ty man­agers are real­iz­ing the cru­cial role of thor­ough build­ing main­te­nance in pro­tect­ing prop­er­ty val­ue, func­tion­al­i­ty, and safe­ty. This arti­cle explores the essen­tial com­po­nents of build­ing main­te­nance man­age­ment and empha­sizes the impor­tance of using inno­v­a­tive build­ing solu­tions for sus­tain­able, safe, and well-main­tained prop­er­ties.

Fox Blocks donat­ed Insu­lat­ed Con­crete Forms (ICF) to the Habi­tat For Humanity’s 30^th Annu­al Jim­my and Ros­alynn Carter Work Project. The vol­un­teers and mate­ri­als donat­ed by Fox Blocks will help rebuild the home of Elmer Lamberson’s whose home was lost in Super­storm Sandy.
