Some of the products that we offer for use on your new High Efficiency home is the walls provided by NuForm Building Sysytems. These systems offer you the chance to not only have Short Term Efficiencies but more importantly
Long Term Savings.
NuForm Building Systems™ consist of rigid extruded polymer components that serve as the finished formwork for a variety of concrete walls including bearing, non-bearing, retaining, and foundation wall applications. This patented wall system is available in a variety of sizes, shapes and colors to meet every building need, from the simplest enclosure to complex architectural designs. Window and door openings and jambs are easily incorporated. Insulation and electrical raceways can be built-in. Assembly is simple, and finished interior and exterior walls are ready for immediate use.
"Prepared to order and assembled on site, our finished wall system offers remarkable advantages in both short-term efficiencies and long-term savings across a wide range of building solutions." Call us or Contact Us for an estimate today.
Product Line
| The building system is comprised of four standard product types. Each consists of a number of components such as boxes, panels, joiners, corners, and starters, and a variety of accessories such as jambs, casings and crown moldings. |
| • |
RBS4 (4"-100 mm) - 4" concrete wall; retaining walls and light commercial (e.g. car washes). The RBS4 is generally designed as a load bearing wall. |
| • |
RBS4 - foam-filled walls and roof, reinforced with steel, are used for telecommunication buildings.
|
| • |
RBS6 (6" - 150 mm) - 6" concrete wall; used for large scale projects, commercial, industrial, institutional and agricultural applications.The RBS6 can be designed as a load bearing or non-load bearing wall.
|
| • |
RBS8 (8" - 200 mm) - 8" concrete wall; used for commercial, industrial, institutional and agricultural applications. The RBS8 can be designed as a load bearing or non-load bearing wall. The RBS8 is generally used where walls with higher load capacity are required.
|
| • |
RBS8i 8"- 200 mm) - 6" concrete wall, with 2" factory installed polyurethane insulation; used for commercial, industrial, institutional and agricultural applications where thermal efficiency is a requirement. The RBS8i can be designed as a load bearing or non-load bearing wall. |
Efficiency
Buildings built with RBS walls benefit from both the thermal mass of concrete and the air tight characteristics of the RBS wall system.
RBS4, RBS6, and RBS8 walls, when insulated with 2 ½" (64 mm) of rigid insulation on the exterior, have a minimum R-value of 22 (RSI 3.82). The RBS8i wall assembly has a minimum effective R-value of 22 (RSI 3.82), in cold climates. Thermal performance, when insulated with 3 ½" (89 mm) of rigid insulation on the exterior, can exceed an R-value of 45 (RSI 7.93) in hot climates.
Earthquake Tornado and Hurricane Resistance
NuForm Building Systems™ products have undergone rigorous laboratory testing and survived real-life disasters around the world.
Earthquake:
| • |
Proven test performance under extreme seismic conditions. |
| • |
Structures remain safe during earthquake as concrete is encased in a polymer shell. |
| • |
RBS survived the Kobe Earthquake in 1995, and was used to rebuild structures following devastating earthquakes in the Sakhalin Islands (Russia), Mexico, Turkey and India. |
Hurricane, Typhoon & Tornado:
| • |
Concrete filled walls provide a shelter against flying debris. |
| • |
System can be designed to suit any wind loading conditions. |
| • |
System has been used for "safe rooms" in tornado alley in Oklahoma |
| • |
System has withstood hurricanes in the Caribbean (e.g. Luis) and typhoons in the South Pacific (e.g. Paka) |
