ICF Weather Resistance
We are living in a world where weather patterns are definitely changing. Storms are getting stronger and they’re popping up in new places that haven’t experienced them before, so using traditional building methods against non-traditional situations doesn’t make a lot of sense (we might argue that traditional building methods weren’t that great against traditional situations, but we digress). Take a look below at some more in-depth information on how ICF holds up under pressure.
