About ICF

What is ICF?

 

Insulating concrete formwork (ICF), is an insulated in-situ concrete system of building that is very quick to construct and offers significantly higher levels of performance than that available from slower, more traditional approaches to building. From the time of ordering a timber frame to arrival on site, we would have the ICF complete.


ICF is based on hollow lightweight block components that lock together without intermediate bedding materials, such as mortar, to provide a formwork system into which concrete is poured. The block is formed of sheets of insulation materials, normally expanded polystyrene tied together with plastic or steel ties

.

Fresh concrete is poured into the forms built up to 3-metre-high as a complete wall. Once the concrete wall is set, it becomes a high-strength concrete frame structure with the formwork remains in place as thermal insulation, providing u-values ranging from the standard 0.30 w/m²k as required by the current Building Regulations down to 0.11 w/m²k – ideal for zero energy buildings Star Level 6 in the Code for Sustainable Homes. The building process is quick, tidy and precise, with lower equipment requirements than alternative methods.
