1.
After creating a reinforced structural concrete slab foundation
for the home, aluminum forms (8-foot plus tall) are erected
creating 4-inch reinforced concrete walls with 2 inches of
insulation on the exterior and 6-inch concrete floors/ceilings.
2. Electrical boxes, conduit, plumbing, and mechanical sleeves
are cast in place.
3. Concrete is poured into the wall and deck forms. In just
one day, the reinforced concrete is sufficiently cured and
forms are removed. Work begins on the second level if a two-story
structure. Walls, ceilings, and stairs are placed monolithically.
4. Because the finished interior concrete walls and ceilings
are so flat and smooth, drywall is not needed. Walls and ceilings
are plastered, sanded, and painted.
