Non-Load Bearing Walls

What is CONFORM ? Patented Concrete Forming Technology

(CFT)

Components interconnect together to createa finished concrete wall

Rigid polymer components thatserve as concrete formwork for:– load bearing walls– non-load bearing walls– shear walls– retaining walls – foundation walls

The CONFORM Advantage

Integrated building technology

Solid concrete technology -“Built tough - built to last!”

Easy to design using our CFD (Conform Design) tool bars for AutoCAD

Unparalleled finishing flexibility

Fast-track construction

IntegratedBuilding

Technology The CF8i wall assembly has a minimum effective R-value of 22 (RSI 3.82) in cold climates

Maintenance-free walls that will not leak or rot, is resistant to UV degradation and to mold/mildew growth

Effective deterrent to termites and other pests

Since CONFORM is an integrated building system, it incorporates the insulation/air/vapor barrier within the wall envelope

The only solution that is:

Corrosion Resistant

Durable

Easy to Clean

Requires Minimal Maintenance

Constructs Quickly

Constructs Quickly

Every Building is custom made in our factory

All components are pre-cut and labeled for easy on site assembly or can be pre-assembled in 8’ sections for easy erection

Less skilled labor required on site

Cleaner overall work site

Occupy your building sooner

Design ofCONFORM Walls

CONFORM Walls can designed using the following methods:

“Stay-in-place” formwork designed in accordance with ACI 318, Building Code Requirements for Reinforced Concrete (USA)

Design of Concrete Structures (Canada)

Concrete Specifications

Minimum 20 MPa (3000 psi) – 28 day compressive strength – non freeze/thaw zones

Minimum 25 MPa (3500 psi) – 28 day compressive strength in freeze/thaw zones

Maximum 10 mm ( 3/8") aggregate (p-gravel)

Minimum 115 mm (4 ½") slump

Aggregate does not segregate due to inner webs of wall components

32’ High Wall

Easy to Design

Specialized Toolbar – CFD for AutoCAD

Can quickly draw a layout and automatically generate a 3-D isometric view and elevations

Can easily incorporate openings for doors and windows and/or any special fabrications that may be required

Information from the layout can be exported to a secondary software program to generate a parts list and cost information
