The Business Case for Building Multifamily Buildings with Concrete Webinar (Free)

Hosted by the National Ready Mix Concrete Association | Build with Strength

AIA-CES: 1 HSW LU (1 Hour) | 1 PDH | 0.1 CEU

This presentation provides insight on the economic benefits of building multifamily residential buildings with concrete using Insulating Concrete Forms (ICFs). Combining the strength and durability of reinforced concrete with high performance rigid insulation, ICFs provide ideal solutions for developers of apartments, condos, hotels, dormitories and assisted living facilities. ICFs are remarkably cost competitive with wood frame construction on a first cost basis and offer operational cost savings through lower energy bills and reduced insurance costs. ICFs offer fire resistance and noise reduction qualities, important features with substantial cost saving. The presentation provides guidance on areas where ICFs can reduce construction schedules further improving the bottom line. Cost comparisons are presented to demonstrate how building with ICFs can increase your return on investment from a first cost perspective and long-term income strategy.
