Does Logix ICFs cost more than traditional construction methods?

Is there any height restrictions with the number of storeys which can be built?

 

No, you can build buildings to any height using Logix ICF's. Once at the 6th floor there needs to be a fire breaker, and then another every floor from there on.

How fast can Logix ICFs be built?

A three metre high wall can be poured full of concrete in a day and, on a medium sized build, you should be able to build a floor a week.

Can basements be built with Logix ICFs?

 

Yes, Logix ICFs come in 4 core widths allowing concrete walls up to 254mm thick to be created.
