SIP Building Insights & Green Construction Blog

Jon Golz explains the advantage of an Enercept Thermal Post which results in a solid envelope of insulation and provides continuous insulation to virtually eliminate thermal bridging.

Using SIPs instead of a typical stick frame structure, you can reduce labor costs by up to 55 percent; reduce construction materials at the job site, and have fewer callbacks – all help shorten construction time.

The quick construction of SIPs results in a faster return on your commercial investment. Commercial builders who are new to this method are often surprised at the ease and speed of erecting a SIPs structure.

Thermal bridging is a result of conductive materials that allow heat to bypass insulation. In standard construction, these conductive materials include wood in the form of studs, top plates, headers, rafters, or any material other than insulation that connects the inside to the outside. Again, a thermal bridge is a gap in the insulation that forms the thermal envelope of the structure.

The strength of construction is one of the biggest arguments in favor of panel construction over traditional wood framing. When you hear about panel buildings surviving hurricanes and earthquakes while their traditionally framed neighbors shatter into sticks, you must take notice.

Building a new SIP home gives you the opportunity to incorporate the needs, wants, and design features you are looking for to make it your dream home.

Structural insulated panels, or SIPs, are fantastic in helping you get enclosed faster and can reduce your temporary heat cost this winter.
