  • A few weeks ago I traveled to Nashville to deliver a load of fox blocks icf and build deck icf roofing to Gerry Carron who was one of our very first attendees to our training. Gerry has been doing great with ICF Pools in the area and recently decided to take on his first ICF Roof! It went great and gave me a chance to highlight a Cool product that can get icf decking to your job a lot cheaper than some of the traditional options.

    How do you finish the top ? Waterproofing ?

    6” walls, 4” roof slab plus the 8”concrete beams. 10 yds total. The house roof goes over this room so no waterproofing or thermal transfer issues to worry about. I have used lite deck with good results also. From a contractor’s perspective, build deck is great because you can keep blocks in stock instead of ordering job specific lengths.

      What's the cost per ft?
      How do you install hardwood floors over it? Can you use MgO panels as a subfloor? Would hydroponic heating go inside the concrete?

    This is an awesome way to build a building, I would love to have one of these someday and I think it would save a fortune on home insurance, I know it would because I wouldn’t pay what I’m paying now

    It may be good to save on the "cost to ship litedeck" but what you showed (concrete touching the metal) is no good when it comes to thermal conduction. Those metal channels will be at the same temperature as the concrete roof.

    Great to hear you’re going to do a video of each block type and roof type. Don’t forget to do one on Nudura XR35 as there are very few videos on it.

      The XR35 has a long corner too, unlike the standard Nudura short corner.

    Curious as to how the roof is water proofed. Thanks.

    How many yards for the pour ? What's the wall thickness ?

    Do you know of any ICF houses getting hit by tornadoes and if so how they did?

    Are there any good architects that can help me get a plan set up for a small 3 story home with a basement for my little mountain plot? Thanks in advance, love these videos

    If you set aside the cost to ship litedeck, what product would you rather work with?

      Still depends, my amish crew set a 6,000 sq ft roof of insuldeck(effectively same as lite) in 4 hrs recently, total rectangle nearly flat pitch, super easy, but if I was in a harder to reach job site like angel fire without my A team, and a more complex layout I’d prefer one of these modular blocks as they are easier to handle with a small crew

    Ball park.. what's that cost per foot and market cost for concrete and labor?

  • @gracefaith6699
    @gracefaith6699 Місяць тому

    Probably just as much added costs for the metal, glue and labor to assemble as the shipping. Besides, a full length piece offers less trouble during a pour and Probably more energy efficient. If costs of shipping is that of a big deal, then I would just retrieve the material myself. I prefer full length pieces myself and would not want this system.

    • @cuttingedgehomes9251

      You need a literal semi, the extra glue is less than a hundred bucks and the full length stuff is over double the cost, but ok
