Insulated Concrete Solutions of
Kingston, Ontario supplied and installed a
combination of 6" and 8" IntegraSpec® ICF
walls for the exterior and select interior walls
of the Conservatory Pond Retirement Home. Special
EPS buck and header system only found with IntegraSpec® was
used for all window and A/C openings and steel
doors were preset into the wall before placing
concrete. Due to the unique independent panel
design exclusive to IntegraSpec®, an
Exposed Concrete Face (ECF) wall for the elevator
shafts using IntegraSpec® panels for one side only was constructed to
provide increased fire ratings to meet higher fire
code regulations.

Integraspec Gulfsouth of Fairhope, Alabama supplied and installed a very unique combination of IntegraSpec® brickledge, standard and corners panels with 6" spacers/webs to achieve this architecturally pleasing condominium. Not only were all of the exterior completed with IntegraSpec® but interior demising walls and garage pilasters were also completed using IntegraSpec® . The turrets were achieved by inverting the brickledge and combining with staggered straight panels. The balcony supports were also completed with IntegraSpec® scribed to a corbel shape, tension strapped to the exterior wall, then filled with concrete to create a monolithic and structurally superior building.
Mr. David Lindsey, BSci, BArch, NCARB, states “IntegraSpec® was the only ICF that was flexible enough to achieve the desired architectural design and details needed for this project”. The owners decided to use IntegraSpec® for the speed of construction, structural strength and cost saving when compared to conventional construction. This proved to be a wise decision after the devastating effects sustained by Hurricane Ivan in the coastal region of Orange County, Alabama. The Grande Caribbean withstood the powerful winds and flying debris with only minor damage to the turret roof.

Broome County, NY
PHCC.... (Earth
Preservers Award)
This award was received for
the use of IntegraSpec® ICF
and the energy efficiency consuming approx. 1/3
less energy than for
conventional construction. Using less energy
for heating and cooling results in greatly reduced
amounts of carbon and sulfur emissions which is
this premise upon which the Broome County PHCC
makes this annual award.
