BuildDeckTM Floor and Roof Decking System
The BuildDeckTM System is a lightweight, stay-in-place Insulating Concrete Form (ICF) made of Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) and used to construct a solid monolithic insulating concrete floor and/or roof decking system. BuildDeckTM is perfect for site-cast or precast concrete floors, roofs, decks, and walls for commercial, industrial and residential uses. BuildDeckTM provides structural integrity through reinforced concrete while providing comfort and sound mitigation through superior EPS insulation.

According to current building codes, most homes do not provide adequate protection from tornadoes, hurricanes and other disastrous conditions. As a result homes built especially in disaster prone areas need the extra protection from such disastrous conditions.
|
When building a new home or business using BuildBlock® complete monolithic concrete wall, floor and roof systems you will create an envelope of protection against natural disasters and turn your entire structure into a safe haven. If you live in an existing structure and are looking for the added protection that a safe room provides - BuildBlock® and BuildDeckTM provide the perfect solution to disaster proofing your existing home or business.
BuildDeckTM Above Ground Safe Room Benefits
- Safe rooms provide protection from injury or death caused by natural disasters.
- Extensive testing by Texas Tech University and other wind engineering research institutes has shown that walls and ceilings constructed with ICFs will withstand the impact of tornadoes and hurricanes.
- BuildBlock® Safe Rooms are a completely sealed, temperature controlled, comfortable, dry, and safe place to protect your family during a disaster.
