Our construction company AustroCasa offers free technical advise and consulting for building ecological and energy saving houses. The AustroCasa Construction System uses high density rigid polystyrene to obtain the monolithic concrete wall. Unlike framed construction, there are no cold spots or bridges in this permanent cover of insulation. The polystyrene blocks have a very good insulating value. AustroCasa's complete insulation cover and the monolithic concrete wall eliminate air-infiltration and drafts in the structures. To control inside humidity and insure a controlled supply of fresh air within the structure, For obtaining the best ambient inside, AustroCasa buildings should be equipped with an air exchange system. Because of AustroCasa's superior efficiency, heating and air conditioning equipment can often be safely downsized by 20-25% (compared to equipment needed in ordinary framed structures) for homes or commercial structures. For this type of structures, engineering studies show that, under wind loads, a 15 cm AustroCasa concrete wall is 2 to 8 times stronger than a typical framed wall. In the laboratory tests, solid concrete walls was proven to be the best protection against flying debris created by winds as high as 300 km per hour, when compared to conventional framed walls or hollow concrete block walls. The expanded polystyrene insulation in the ICF (Insulating Concrete Form) system does not support the growth of Aspergillus versicolor and Stachybotrys chartarum strains of mold. The solid concrete in ICF wall makes it the most affordable choice for permanent resistance to fire. Interior concrete walls have long been recognized for the protection they provide to the adjacent rooms and outside perimeter walls offer that same resistance to natural wildfires. Engineer's studies confirm that the addition of the insulating forms does not affect a concrete wall's Fire Ratings. Our high efficiency structures are acknowledged by most insurance firms to have the lowest possible risk for major damage from winds, fire and earthquakes. Standard building blueprints do not have to change to build with our system, because all types of window and door schedules can be incorporated into the building's design. AustroCasa system allows building contractors to construct all types of angles and flexible design.
