The 3D Structural Panel
Hefty Homes are built with 3D Structural Panels, otherwise known as SCIP (Structural Concrete Insulated Panels). This innovative construction product was created over 45 years ago in Austria by the EVG Company and today is used all over the world.
This thermo-acoustic insulated panel construction system is hurricane-safe, earthquake-safe, fire-safe, and termite-free. Extremely versatile the system is built with prefabricated stay in place panels that are easily configurable, simple to erect, and fast to construct.
The components of the 3-D System are environmentally "Green" and will assist any project in "LEED" certification. Its extraordinary design, flexibility, ease of installation, versatility of application and astonishing strength are changing the way the construction industry sees the future.
At the heart of the individual panel is a super-insulated energy efficient core of rigid expanded polystyrene (EPS) sandwiched between two-engineered sheets of eleven-gauge steel wire-mesh face sheets that are welded together with the aid of 9-gauge cross wires that diagonally penetrate the interior foam to create a single monolithic structure. The diagonal cross wires are positioned 4 inches on center creating multiple strength-enhancing wire trusses in each panel. When concrete is applied, by any method, the panel becomes a structural load bearing insulated wall system - a THREE-DIMENSIONAL lightweight panel that is one of the strongest building materials you can find.
The two steel reinforced concrete faces provide tensile and compressive strength. The EPS core separates and stabilizes the cement faces against buckling under edgewise compression, torsion or bending. It also functions as a thermal and acoustic insulator protecting your privacy while keeping you cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. The system offers a cost-effective building alternative to traditional building methods. It is the ultimate answer for home owners and businesses who wish to create a truly hurricane-safe, earthquake-safe, fire-safe, and termite-free structure that lasts indefinitely – easily spanning multiple generations.
