Insulated concrete forms for floors and roofs quad deck uses unique technology to create an energy efficient and quality insulating concrete floor and roof system.
Roofing over insulated concrete forms.
Each home was designed and constructed using an icf wall system and lite deck icf roof system.
Since 1945 they have been manufacturing the only reinforced insulated concrete forms that does not use foam or polystyrene.
Cost was 19k material only for simple low pitch 44x32 plus overhangs all the way around.
Durisol insulated concrete forms are the original icf system.
Foam sheet insulation is typically used above the roof or below a concrete slab poured over a deck.
Three of the homes featured a gable roof design one a hip design.
Insulated concrete form walls are constructed by pouring concrete into hollow pre formed panels which are most commonly made of expanded polystyrene or extruded polystyrene foam.
