SIPs are a structural building system constructed of a solid core of foam insulation with laminated skins of oriented strand board (OSB) or plywood. The foam core provides a high insulation value (R=4 per inch), while the laminated skins contribute to the system's overall rigidity, strength, and dimensional stability.

Wall and Roof Panels are factory designed and precut specifically for each project. Typical panel packages include all required panels, support members, fasteners, sealants and panel layout drawings.

Advantages of SIP Construction:

• Savings up to 60% of heating/cooling costs
• Superior structural strength/ straighter walls
• Fast Construction - reduced labor costs
• Precut panels - less jobsite waste
• Environmentally responsible - build Green
• Quieter and more secure home
• 15 times tighter than conventional building
• Qualify for energy efficient mortgages

Basement and Below Grade Foundation Panels consist of 5/8" treated plywood laminated to both sides of 7 3/8" expanded polystyrene insulation. 5-ply treated glulam studs 4' o.c. complete the structural wall system. Basement floor panels are also available.

Other SIP Applications:

• Insulated shops, garages, and storage buildings
• Retail stores and shops
• Schools, churches, and public buildings
• Light commercial and manufacturing Facilities
• Agricultural livestock buildings and arenas
• Clear span buildings up to 100' wide using SIP/GLULAM technologies
