Intro to Structural Insulated Panels

Intro to SIPs
Saturday April 10, 2010
9:30-10:30 FREE

We have now been designing, cutting, installing and building with SIPs (Structural Insulated Panels) for 20 years, and we still like them. In fact, we like them even better now. Come hear what we have learned in twenty years, what has changed, how to best use SIPs in your building projects, how to cut, move lift and install SIPs in a hands on and practical discussion. We will also address how to detail a SIP installation to ensure a long lasting, airtight, energy efficient enclosure. Learn how the International Residential Code’s (the official building code of Maine starting in 2010) prescriptive method makes code-compliant building with SIPs easy and how the Code has recently acknowledged SIPs superior structural integrity with a significant addition to the 2009 IRC. We will tell you the reason that R-Control SIPs continue to be our brand of choice after two decades and over a million square feet of installations. Slides and a quick tour of a small SIP structure will complete the picture of this proven building technology which continues to thrive in today’s environmentally scrutinized residential building climate.
