Near Claremont, about 50 homes were destroyed.
This was the only home left standing, “Even though
the home needs extensive renovation, all of our
possessions are intact” said the owner, Mr. Bruce.
Testing has shown ICFs' ability to withstand
200 mph+ winds.
• Structural integrity• Exceptional versatility• Fire Protection• Safety & Security
• Concrete in ICFs cure to 50% stronger than in removable forms
• Virtually maintenance-free wall system
• Long term maintenance = Reduced operating costs!Reduced operating costs!

STC RATING
Conventional wall = 36 to 38.
6” ICF wall = 57
25- Normal speech understood quite easily and
distinctly through a wall
30- Loud speech understood fairly well, normal
speech heard but not understood
35- Loud speech heard but unintelligible
45- Loud speech not audible, 90% of statistical
population not annoyed
48- Barely audible
50- Inaudible, very loud sounds such as a stereo
are faintly heard
• Structural integrity• Exceptional versatility• Fire Protection• Safety & Security• Soundproofing• Thermal Barrier
• Save 50% to 80% in Heating/Cooling Expense
• Lower Insurance Rates
• Fewer Equipment Maintenance costs
• Reduced HVAC Requirement
