What is an ICF Foundation? ICFs are foam bricks, much like interlocking Lego blocks, that are reinforced with rebar and then filled with concrete. In Vancouver, the two main advantages of the use of ICFs include: increased energy efficiency and strength.
🎥 Watch the Site Tour to learn how our expert team at Averra Developments work with Vancouver ICF to combine precision with sustainable building practices to create the strongest, most efficient foundation system available.
Architects, Engineers and Builders will find this foundation system to be the most efficient in today’s market. MPHD enables the simultaneous pouring of footings and ICF walls, resulting in a stronger foundation without cold joints. This saves thousands in labour and concrete pumping costs while reducing the foundation’s embodied energy.
The ICF Monopour system completely replaces traditional footing lumber with a cost-effective, capillary-breaking fabric: resulting in the driest basement possible. In just four days, our three-man crew installed 200 feet of footing and the 9-foot high R-24 wall form.
✅ Key Benefits:
- Eliminates cold joints for stronger foundations
- Reduces labor and concrete pumping costs
- Achieves R-24 insulation value
- Creates the driest possible basement environment
- Significantly reduces embodied energy
