Thats amazing

This looks amazing -- do you know any builders doing this on the west coast (California)? I haven't been able to find a manucturer serving the West coast but I can't see any reason this wouldn't work.

Just imagine how fast you could build a whole house with precast concrete, instead of the traditional wood framing :P

Yes you could!

From the POV as someone who barely knows construction, my concern with these walls are with how each unit is connected. It looks like it's a combination of good bolting and some sealant. If used in a basement setting, wouldn't the sealant need to be replaced ever so often, and how would you do that underground? Or am I misunderstanding this?

Does superior walls ever figure in for a brick ledge with different height grades?

@AddisonHomes 8 ай бұрын

Absolutely! This is part of the wall design. Brick ledge can be added anywhere and at any height on the exterior of the wall - stepping down with grade.

What holds them from falling over? its so fast . do they get bolted down ?

@AddisonHomes 4 ай бұрын

They are temporarily supported with brackets until they are bolted together.

Looks great. Why not build the entire house with those walls?

@AddisonHomes Жыл бұрын

It can certainly be done stacking the walls but becomes more challenging with exterior finishes unless you leave the walls concrete. It also involves attaching the floor system on ledgers inside the wall. On this particular house the top floor is a bonus room in the trusses and superior currently cannot build gable end walls. An all superior wall house would bee mighty robust however!!!!

As far as I know they also have another product called AG (Above Grade) precast concrete walls, so it can be done. With the restrictions that AddisonHomes mentioned.

At ~6;15 the narrator says that these panels have wire mesh. I wonder if that is true. I've watched several of superior walls manufacturing videos and have yet to see wire mesh installed in any of them.

The walls have rebar in each precast stud that is tied to the rebar in the top and bottom bond beams. Steel "eyes" welded to reinforcing wire are tied back into the rebar at the top and bottom bond beams. Welded wire mesh can be specified in the outer layer of concrete but is generally not required. The concrete mix used cures at 5,000 psi or greater and is typically fiber reinforced. Hope this helps to clarify!
