Pour
It On!
 Concrete is used for an exceptional range
of projects, from smooth finished interior floors to pilings for massive
bridges.
We are used to seeing it around houses - as sidewalks or driveways.
But what about pouring an entire house with concrete walls? Using
our Conwall Building System of insulated concrete
forms you could do just that.
As sturdy and long-lasting as it is, concrete is
one of the most flexible building materials available.

PervaRock - Pervious Concrete:
the New Way to "THINK GREEN"
Pervious concrete pavement is a unique and effective means to address important environmental issues and support green, sustainable growth. By capturing stormwater and allowing it to seep into the ground, porous concrete is instrumental in recharging groundwater, reducing stormwater runoff, and meeting U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) stormwater regulations.
In fact, the use of pervious concrete is among the Best Management Practices (BMPs) recommended by the EPA-- and by other agencies and geotechnical engineers across the country-- for the management of stormwater runoff on a regional and local basis. This pavement technology creates more efficient land use by eliminating the need for retention ponds, swales, and other stormwater management devices. In doing so, pervious concrete has the ability to lower overall project costs on a first-cost basis.

The Secret is in
the Materials
The four primary ingredients of concrete are:
However, to change selected characteristics of concrete and expand
on its usefulness, we use a variety of additions:
In addition, various reinforcements make
concrete even stronger, more stable, longer lasting and noise-resistant
than it already is! |

Concrete is the Right Approach
 Concrete
offers a number of benefits
|
|
Competitive Cost:
Concrete has relatively low installation, maintenance and replacement
costs. |
|
|
Low maintenance: Concrete is
easy to clean and doesn't require resealing and resurfacing. |
|
|
Long Lasting: Buildings over 100
years old are still in use, and a concrete drive will last twice
as long as an asphalt drive. |
