Dr. Joseph Colaco discussed the development of Foam Based Single Family Housing Systems. Conventional homes are built with wood, using "stick-built" ballroom framing. But several builders are using foam to build homes.
Dr. Colaco presented results from wind and seismic tests, and calculations on energy savings on the FAS/CLEAN home.
For example:
Microstone - Foam with fiber reinforced shins
FAS/CLEAN - Uses SIPS panels made by Thermasave
HCI - AmHome - Uses concrete columns and beams within the foam.
