The Breakdown • Condo Resort located on Norris Lake in Andersonville, TN • First of Four High-Rise Condominiums • ICF Exterior Shell & Interior Load Bearing Walls • 50,500+ sq. ft. wall area • 53,000+ sq. ft. floor area • Concrete Plank Floor
Cold Weather • Biggest Challenges • Increased Concrete Curing Times • Temperature reached 21.8° F. • Engineering Research • Shield Engineering • Insulated Concrete Forms Cure Faster • Real-World Testing Shield Engineering provided extensive research including core-drilling, environmental curing, and compression testing in order to prove their results
Cold Weather The above chart depicts the compressive strength of concrete exposed to the environment as used in traditional forms as compared to concrete placed in ICFs. The concrete in the ICF reached 50% of its compressive strength in about 3 days where traditional formed concrete took more than 7 days.
It’s What’s Inside that Counts! • Luxury Condominiums • 10’ Vaulted Ceilings • Solid Granite Countertops • Fully Furnished • ICF’s provide noise reduction from nearby marina & neighbors • $249,000-$499,000
