ICF (Insulated Concrete Forms)
Spec Resources Inc. is now a distributor of insulated concrete forms (ICF). ICF is an innovative building system that builds stronger, safer, quieter, energy efficient and environmentally friendlier homes and structures. Insulating Concrete Forms are formwork for concrete that stays in place as permanent building insulation for energy-efficient, cast-in-place, reinforced concrete walls, floors, and roofs.
The forms are interlocking modular units that are dry-stacked (without mortar) and filled with concrete. The forms lock together somewhat like Lego bricks and serve to create a form for the structural walls or floors of a building. Reinforcing steel (rebar) is added before concrete placement to give the concrete flexural strength, similar to bridges and high-rise buildings made of concrete. Concrete is pumped into the cavity to form the structural element of the walls.
