ICF SLAB
Insulated raft foundations, also known as insulated slab foundations or raft slabs, are a type of foundation used in building construction. They consist of a large, reinforced concrete slab that sits on top of a layer of insulation, which is typically made of expanded polystyrene (EPS) or extruded polystyrene (XPS) foam.
ENVIRONMENTAL
INSULATION
The purpose of the insulation layer is to reduce heat loss through the foundation, which can help to increase energy efficiency and reduce heating costs. This can create a full envelope of insulation around the structure. Insulated raft foundations are often used in areas with cold climates, where the ground can freeze during the winter. Because the foundation sits on top of the insulation, it is less susceptible to frost heave than traditional foundations that are built directly on the ground. In addition, the insulation can also help to prevent moisture from penetrating the foundation, which can help to prevent damage from freezing and thawing cycles.
GREEN
The Popular Choice for Sustainable Foundations.
Insulated raft foundations are a popular choice for developers who are looking to construct energy-efficient, durable buildings that can withstand the rigours of harsh weather conditions.
Insulated Raft Foundation systems are suitable for all construction methods from ICF to timber frame and traditional block work.
