Quad-Lock Residential Project Profile - The Woods at Royal Bay
Victoria, BC
- This 2925 sqft ranch-style home including a
walkout basement has been chosen by BC Ready-Mixed Concrete
Association (BCRMCA) to be the 2005
'Home with a Difference' for
Greater Victoria. The Woods at Royal Bay, a three-phase
development that will comprise single family homes, duplex lots,
town homes, a school and a park site. When complete, the home
will be used as a model home, sales centre and construction
office for
Bayridge Builders.
Construction began in June 2004, and is scheduled to be complete
February 28th, 2005. Built to R2000 standards, the exterior walls were
built with Quad-Lock Insulating Concrete Forms. The concrete home will
be taken one step further to include coloured and etched concrete floors
complete with radiant in-floor heating.
Quad-Lock homes are:
- Healthy: Quad-Lock walls dramatically reduce outside noise
creating a quiet peaceful indoor atmosphere. Airtight Quad-Lock
walls reduce air infiltration, create a mould-free environment and
eliminate drafts and cold spots, thereby giving the occupants not
only greater control over the quality of the interior air, but a
level of comfort not found in traditional wood framed homes.
- Safe: Quad-Lock walls offer a 3-4 hour fire rating
- Energy and Cost Efficient: Energy savings (heating and cooling)
are documented to range from 40-70%
This home was part of BCRMCA's Home with a Difference promotion and
open houses which offered a great way to find out for yourself why and how
Quad-Lock should be part of your next building project.
