The Insteel 3-D Panel System - Masonry
Exterior Walls
For those persons wanting a premium structure
we are experienced in building with
The Insteel 3-D Panel System ®
Houses using our system mimic the
solid masonry houses of Europe which last for centuries, not for a
few decades like the stick built houses which constitutes most all
of the local housing market. The system uses a core of modified
expanded polystyrene, flanked by steel wire mesh, which is connected
with galvanized truss wires. Once connected to form the walls, both
sides are coated with concrete. These walls are exceptionally
strong and they provide very high insulation and soundproofing
qualities. The strong solid masonry exterior is formed directly
with the foundation and floor slab, which makes the main structure
of the house monolithic. Couple this with the strength and precise
engineering of our steel framing in the interior walls and roof
system and you have a house that is practically storm proof. Houses
of this type construction have been the only consistent survivors in
hurricanes in Florida and the Caribbean. They have also proven
themselves during windstorms and earthquakes in the western U.S.
