GFRC Advantages Commercial Construction Light Weight with panel systems less than 20 pounds per square foot of wall. 1/5 the weight of precast, ½ the weight of granite. The GFRC and GFRC panel framing space can be utilized to contain the primary building insulation and vapor barrier. This allows the insulation and vapor barrier to be continuous and not broken by the floor slab or building columns. Interior finishes can be attached directly to the GFRC framing utilizing 1 5/8 furring creating more interior room usage space. GFRC can provide the same look and feel of architectural precast, limestone, sandstone, granite, terracotta, andtravertine travertine. Prefabricated panels complete with insulation and vapor barrier will speed construction and provide quicker building envelope dry in, resulting in faster completion of interior work. Cost effective. GFRC can provide these advantages with a cost competitive price as compared to architectural precast and generally less expensive than limestone, sandstone, granite, terracotta and travertine.

Architectural Uses of GFRC New Construction New Buildings Building Additions Renovation Re cladding Historical Restoration
Vapor Barriers and Insulation Unitized Panel Construction: GFRC offers choices for all designers for location and performance of the buildingenvelope. Vapor barriers and insulation can be contained within the GFRC panel framing, system leaving floor space for occupant use. With over 25 years in exterior cladding building performance we can help design a system that works for any building
LEED Considerations Precast panels limit job site congestion & waste. Fewer Trailers on site (15 20 panels/trailer) reduces congestion & simplifies logistics. Lightweight GFRC panels use less material, and saves energy and fuel in transport. Lighter panels translate to lighter building structure. Panels can be contoured and windows deeply recessed for built in sun shading. Panel framing can be pre insulated to achieve high R value.
