ICF Technology Overview
NUDURA Integrated Building Technology
NUDURA patented locking mechanism
4” form unit
6” form unit
8” form unit
10” form unit
12” form unit
Available in 4”, 6”, 8”, 10” & 12” core thickness
Features and Benefits Web design provides full 1 ½” fastening strip
8’ Standard Folding Form Units
8’ long
45 ° / 90° Form Units
Radius Wall Forms
Gable End Walls
Radius Topped Windows
Radius topped openings can easily be formed into NUDURA’s walls using a number of different methods
Note: Refer to 3.7-34 in the Installation Manual
Standard footings are installed according to applicable building codes and engineering requirements.
Stepped footings are easily accommodated with the flexibility of ICF construction.
Footings installed…
Form units are stacked similar to building blocks to the required building dimensions.
Block are set…
Reinforcing rebar is placed according to the design requirements into notches provided by the webbing.
Reinforcing Rebar added…
Window and door “Bucks” or frames are placed in the wall.
“Bucks” can be created using several different material options.
Wall openings installed…
Electrical Installations Rough-In for electrical work is accomplished in various ways
Plumbing Installations Up to 1 ½” PVC pipe with coupler
in most flat wall systems
Rough in same as electrical
Mechanical Penetrations
Alignment Systems NUDURA’s Alignment System is made up of four components
Box channel
Adjustable diagonal brace
Guard rail post
Cat walk bracket
NUDURA’s Tall Wall Alignment Solution
Brick Ties and Flashing
Load Bearing Beams and Columns
Load Bearing Imbeds and Beam Pockets
Floor and Roof Truss Attachments
Completed Walls
Concrete Placement
Concrete placement rate should not exceed 4’ of lift per hour (per ACI 304 and CAN/CSA A23.1 for proper placement of concrete)
Factors that affect speed of concrete placement:
Slump of concrete Size of aggregate Air temperature Concrete temperature Rebar size and spacing Concrete mix design
Waterproofing Below Grade
Apply the waterproofing membrane below grade.

Building Green Starts With NUDURA
• NUDURA is manufactured from recycled or recyclable material
•NUDURA Buildings produce little waste during the construction process and all waste is 100% recyclable
•NUDURA Forms emit no CFC’s or HCFC’s
•NUDURA Forms are manufactured under strict guidelines using only processes that are non-ozone depleting
•NUDURA’s unique technological design reduces waste during the construction process reducing the amount of waste sent to landfills.
Fire / Flammability Resistance Non-combustible self extinguishing materials Mandatory flame retardant in all foam plastic insulation (bromine)
Flame spread 5 Smoke Developed 300 (from UL File R5817(A))
Code dictates all foam plastics be protected with a thermal barrier Exteriors of multi storey buildings must be protected from flame
propagation Flame ignition temperature of 698°F and self ignition temperature
of 806°F in accordance with ASTM D1929 Concrete core provides a fire resistance rating of up to 4 hours.
