内容简介

This is the ultimate guide to cutting-edge construction methods. Draft-defeating, quiet, energy-efficient, strong, durable, lightweight, easy to cut and piece together, stably priced, and offering design flexibility - it's no wonder ICFs are being used in construction at a briskly growing 30 per cent a year. If you want authoritative, detailed answers on whether insulating concrete forms are right for your business or project - on what it's like to work with them - on how they perform - on installation or post-installation trades work - you've come to the right place.Look inside for: the business and technical facts you need to make pro or con decisions about ICFs; construction process details, including plumbing and electricity; first-hand, from-the-site reports on working with ICFs; comparisons of ICFs in commercial and residential construction; and getting a good ICF crew; estimating ICF jobs; tips from the pros on marketing - working with building officials, architects, engineers, and more; future trends in ICF construction; and, training and supplier information. It is supported by the Insulating Concrete Form Association.
