Each and every time I am at a SIP construction site I find myself in awe. Last week I wasat a SIPconstruction site in Boulder, Colorado and once again I was amazed as I watched the installation crew standing R-Control SIP panels. They were prepping panels in one area and installing them in another. They were working on the second story wall panels and I arrived just in time to see the framing crew put the finishing touches on an 8’ x 14’ panel that was for a gable end wall.
Four guys carried the wall into position and stood it up very quickly. The panel was set in place and towered 14’ high above the first floor panels. 10 minutes later the second 8’ x 14’ panel was being set in place. I was at the jobsite for an hour and watched multiple R-Control SIP panels being fabricated and set in place. Still to this day, I am impressed at how quickly the panels can be installed. I talked with the framing crew and it was their first time installing R-Control SIP panels but they seemed to have gotten the hang of it very quickly.
