Icf Pitched Roof Systems
We are using insulated concrete form for our roofs as well.
Icf pitched roof systems. The builddeck floor roofing decking system is a lightweight stay in place insulating concrete form icf made of expanded polystyrene eps and used to construct a solid monolithic insulating concrete floor and or roof decking system. Perhaps the most obvious is disaster resistance. Each home was designed and constructed using an icf wall system and lite deck icf roof system. Icf roofing systems poured integrally with the walls provides the most secure attachment.
However in big wind events such as tornadoes and hurricanes roofs have proven to be a significant weak point. Three of the homes featured a gable roof design one a hip design. Ideal for use in commercial and residential construction quad deck combines the strength security and reliability of reinforced concrete with the energy efficiency fast. Icf walls have a well established track record of surviving natural disasters.
A concrete slab will protect belongs and occupants from hurricanes and tornadoes and is completely fireproof. With modern foam decking systems even complex roof designs can be created. Topping an icf structure with a concrete roof has a number of advantages. You can also build a safe room using any kind of concrete roof system for lifesaving protection.
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. The two homes with longer spans required 10 lite deck system the two shorter spans used 6 lite deck.
