Excellent. This is why we go to your pool and concrete workshops. An invaluable community of really nice people.

THANK YOU! Fire, flood, and wind damage are not discussed enough when we use ICF. Home insurance is becoming outrageous in cost. This construction needs NO home insurance. We just need to get the mortgage banks and insurance companies to create special exceptions for ICF homes.

Please do quick video on the general process/workflow from the perspective of a GC or owner-GC from deciding if an ICF roof is right in your case. A updated cost breakdown would be interesting as well. I am based in Arizona so I am curious if ICF roofs are worth it out here. Thank you so much for your videos and when I am ready for a pool kit I will def be giving you a call!

If I had built a rectangle house I'd be living in it already. Hindsight 20/20, lol.

I wish we had a floor plan view. I wish we had a better look at the foundation. I wish you would use Helix Steel in a new ICF pour.

What is the sq ft cost and R value for a roof like this? With ICF walls AND roof the thermal mass and sound deadening must be off the charts.

on a project this size how come you aren't using fiberglass rebar

What is the roof pitch on this? My current drawings have a 12-3 pitch on the roof because we were planning on doing standing seam, but now I'm pretty hot on ICF for the roof as well. In your opinion do you think 12-3 is too steep for concrete or should we reduce it a bit?

@cuttingedgehomes9251 2 ай бұрын

I would reduce it if it’s possible, 3/12 is asking a lot more of your concrete crew, meaning more guys more money and more chances of something going wrong, all that said 3/12 is possible just gonna be harder finding the labor!

32" in 40'. So like 0.8 in 12 or 6.67% slope. So far the water runs off it fine. Every day there are fewer drips as the Xypex reacts with the water. The whole roof is being watered down 5 times a day for over a week. Only one very small crack so far.

No safety perimeter rails required during the pour? And didn’t see any sleeves for plumbing vents? Other then that, this looks awesome!

@logoschristianacademy6044 2 ай бұрын

Sleeves for plumbing vents are through the walls. Fortunately, no one fell off the roof.

Why don't people put a metal roof on top of the ICF roof to prevent leakage and water damage? Wouldn't that be a good safeguard?

@cuttingedgehomes9251 2 ай бұрын

It would be fine, it’s just way more expensive and difficult to attach than simply doing tpo, we’ve done it on the shaw hollow project, I’ve got videos on it, but standing seam is more expensive than tpo and in most cases you need to fir out the roof first or take significant steps to attach it to the concrete:). So we do it but the reasons are usually architectural, if waterproof is only desire tpo makes way more sense:)

how is this compared to TJI in terms of cost?

@cuttingedgehomes9251 2 ай бұрын

Considerably more, but no comparison in quality when going for net zero or passive home

extremely interested in this build, & would love if Don would reach out! loads of similarities with my plans; simple rectangle, southern gain, calculated shade, fastfoot, fox block & window bucks, low-slope ICF roof. this is far larger, although i'm planning 4 separate dwelling designs (about 3,800sqft total), and 2 of them are 2-story. have some odd ideas/plans for semi-passive heating/cooling. i'm 3hrs from your plans in Angel Fire, Aaron... what's my chances of contracting with ya? lol

@@logoschristianacademy6044 Hey, what an awesome build. Congrats. I am interested in doing something similarly designed as mentioned above by Ivan. Please do a follow up video with @cuttingedgehomes9251 at the next phase. Do you have any social medias where you are posting updates yourself? Would like to follow along. Also, could you share your ideas for your floorplan and maybe the dimensions of those massive windows and overall dimensions. Im guessing 40x150? But thanks and keep up the DIY it is pretty inspiring.
