This design has been adapted by Design Basics and Eco-Block to use the Eco-Block Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF) foundation and wall system. The square footage of this design may differ from from the original plan as designed due to design considerations in adapting this design to the ICF product.
One of the fastest growing sectors in the construction industry around the world is Insulating Concrete Forms (ICFs). These forms, which are made of Expanded Polystyrene (EPS), are used to build reinforced concrete walls for both residential and commercial buildings.
Once the forms we manufacture are erected, concrete is poured in. After the concrete has hardened, the forms stay in place and become the insulation for the walls.
ICF's offer many advantages to traditional block or poured foundations and wall framing. To learn more about this building system, click here or on the "alternative construction" link at the top of the page.
