You are invited to a live site tour of the world’s first Monopour Heavy Duty (MPHD) ICF Foundation. The home, designed by Robert Blaney Homes, is being built by Averra Developments, one of the premiere Net Zero Home Builders in Vancouver since 2007. 

Architects, Engineers and Builders will find this foundation system to be the most efficient in today's market. MPHD enables the simultaneous pouring of footings and ICF walls, resulting in a stronger foundation without cold joints. This saves thousands in labour and concrete pumping costs while reducing the foundation's embodied energy.

The Fastfoot® footing system completely replaces traditional footing lumber with a cost-effective, capillary-breaking fabric: resulting in the driest basement possible. In just four days, Averra's three-man crew installed 200 feet of footing and the 9-foot high R-24 wall form.

Proper Excavation

Averra supplied a dead-level excavation with a 4" drainage layer. String lines were set up for accurate location of the ICF walls.

Spray Paint Layout

Averra team sprays the center of footing and outside of ICF on the drainage layer.

Fastfoot footing layout

Fastfoot® footing form is unrolled over the spray paint. Nudura ICFs are installed directly over the Fastfoot®. 

Monopour HD Brackets

Once two courses of Nudura blocks are locked together, MPHD brackets are screwed in place 5' on center.

Drill adjust walls 

Using a level and laser, the walls are lifted to accommodate the footing depth. 

Bracing the walls 

Once walls are 6' high, Zont bracing is installed and the ICF wall is staked in its exact position. 

Work to be done

Next week Averra will install the final course of ICF, attach the Fastfoot® footing form to the ICF bottom edge, and install the insulated window bucks, ready for your site visit on January 14th.
