Building Process
ICF construction is less demanding to build with owing to its modular design. Less skilled labor can be employed to lay the ICF forms though careful consideration must be made when pouring the concrete to make sure it consolidates fully and cures evenly without cracking. Unlike traditional wood beam construction, no additional structural support other than temporary scaffolding is required for openings, doors, windows, or utilities though modifying the structure after the concrete cures requires special concrete cutting tools.
