In Italy, the landscape of current building regulations is particularly broad and articulated. The matters governed by the regulations in force concern the following sectors:
- Energy savings and comfort
- Structural safety
- Construction product regulations
- Construction site safety
Each operator in the sector therefore finds themselves, for their own area of competence, having to balance very different needs, which concern the individual aspects mentioned above. And each regulation contains many prescriptions whose compliance is not always immediate. Consider the new technical standards on constructions that regulate not only anti-seismic safety, but also the thickness of concrete covers, the durability of artifacts, fire resistance, etc.
With traditional systems, it is difficult to simultaneously guarantee the various necessary requirements, both due to execution issues inherent in old-fashioned methods, and because these methods were developed when current regulations did not exist.
With the ICF ITALIA construction system, designers and executors can sleep soundly, as the company, as part of its research activities, has developed its products paying particular attention to these new requirements which, if neglected, can give rise to problems of various nature.
Therefore, by using ICF ITALIA panels, it is possible to construct buildings IN COMPLIANCE WITH NEW REGULATIONS: energy-efficient, safe, and quiet.
In other words, for all types of ICF ITALIA panels, the performance that the finished wall will have is known, without the possibility of error in either design or execution.
