Quad-Deck: Insulating Concrete Forms for
Floors, Roofs, and Tilt-Up
QUAD-LOCK - The most versatile Insulating Concrete Forming System
Build
nearly unlimited wall widths, 3 different insulation values, corners,
angles, T-walls, columns, pilasters, brick ledges, and radius walls, using just
a few standard components.
Panels made of Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) and Ties made of High Density
Polyethylene (HDPE) create a Concrete Form that will accommodate vertical and
horizontal Reinforcing Steel as required. Temporary bracing is usually required for vertical
and horizontal alignment only. Filling the cavity with concrete will create solid
concrete walls with 2-4 hour Fire Resistance Ratings (FRR). The EPS Forming System will stay in place
and turn into the best insulation available today, saving you energy costs for
the lifetime of the building.
Five different wall widths are available (nominal concrete widths of 12" [300mm],
10" [250mm], 8" [200mm],
6" [150mm], and 4" [100mm]) and
can be combined with the
Quad-Lock Extender Tie to add 12" [305mm] to any standard cavity size.
Three insulation values are possible, giving you the
choice of
true R-Values of 22, 32, and 40 h*ft²*°F/BTU / U-values of 0.28,
0.20, and 0.15 W/(m²*K).
The Quad-Lock System encompasses these components:
Panels made of EPS, available in 2 thicknesses (2¼"
[57mm] and 4¼"
[108mm]) and with optional Fastening Strips
Ties made of High Density Polyethylene (5
standard lengths plus Extender Ties and Brick Ledge Ties)
These components will allow you to assemble all concrete forming for your
walls, including corners, arches, any angles, columns and pilasters, as well as
T-Wall connections. Transport and storage costs of Quad-Lock are substantially
lower compared to pre-assembled block systems. Ordering and keeping track of
inventory is easier (you would need at least 45 different parts to do the same
with pre-assembled blocks). The Excel™-based Quad-Lock Estimating program makes it quick and easy
to calculate all materials needed for your job and the cost.
Quad-Deck
is a high-quality ICF for suspended concrete
floors and roofs and can also be used to easily
form walls for Tilt-Up applications.
