I was a believer in using truss wire when installing other ICF’s but now that I’m using the Fox Blocks ICF I have been convinced by contractors that it is not necessary.
Remove Costs on your ICF Project
Two proven areas to remove costs are corners and truss wire.

SHOP BUILDING AND GARAGE
The project was built to create a sound and visual barrier between the neighboring home after a section of trees on the side yard that joined the two properties was cleared.
BARKING DOG VINEYARD AND ESTATE
Old-World Style Home and Vineyard Prove ICF Resilence. Noble materials like custom heavy-timber structural trusses, rafter tails, and outlookers give the home a natural ranch look, while hand-cut, locally sourced, natural stone accents provide a solid footing and timeless durability.
WHITEWATER CROSSING CHRISTIAN CHURCH
Fox Blocks provided a structural system that allowed the existing church to be expanded.
The Fox Block Interlock
When the Fox Blocks interlock was designed our Engineering staff made the choice not to focus on being within 1÷2” to 1” from the building dimension but to give the strongest interlock possible.
