Insulated Concrete Form (ICF) is formwork for concrete that stays in place as permanent building insulation for energy-efficient, cast-in-place, reinforced concrete walls, floors, and roofs. It applies to residential, commercial & industrial buildings. <br /> <br />Polycrete® Big Block ICF the largest on the market. At 16 square feet of wall, its large size & simple design result in a fast and economical installation process. <br /> <br />Polycrete® Big Block the only system on the market that resist to a lateral pressure 1600 lbs/sq ft during concrete pour . <br /> <br />Buildings made with Polycrete® offer many benefits compared to conventional methods. <br /> <br /> The ease of installation of our ICFs combined with their performance make the Polycrete® choice an easy decision. <br /> <br />The secret to ICF installation is to have everything level - horizontally and vertically. Some techniques and tools are available to help builders. Corner guides (90° and 135°) are installed early to insure perfectly plumb corner alignment. <br /> <br />The Polycrete scaffolding system is used to access upper ICF courses but also to help align the ICF walls prior to and after concrete pour. <br /> <br />All materials used in a Polycrete® ICF wall bring thermal insulation performances above all required standards. <br /> <br />In order to maintain our superior quality, the Big Block manufacturing process is closely controlled by Polycrete®. <br /> <br />All Big Block products are manufactured on Polycrete® equipment and no contract manufacturers are employed. <br /> <br />Call today for more information: +1 780-266-8446 <br />www.polycrete.com/en/bigblock
