In this video, we explore the structure and benefits of the wall systems in Concrete Insulated Panel (CIP) construction. We explain how Nevada pins and Pultruded fiberglass ties create a strong connection between the outer veneer and the structural concrete layers, eliminating thermal bridging and enhancing energy efficiency. Learn about the different insulation options, rebar grid layouts, and materials like Remesh and poly fiber mesh that reinforce the panels. We also discuss the wide range of interior and exterior finish possibilities, from smooth epoxy surfaces to etched concrete and custom graphic art, giving your home a unique and durable look. #GenerationalBuilding #ConcreteTechnology #BuildingBetter #concretewalls #customhomes #customhome #yyjconstruction #tiltup #yyjrealestate #energyefficienthomes #design #engineering #architecture #architect #durability

In this video, we discuss the logistics of transporting and installing concrete insulated panels for building projects. The ideal approach is to bring all equipment to the site and use the tilt-up method, which allows for on-site adjustments and minimizes the handling of panels. We also cover the option of building panels off-site and transporting them, though this adds cost and increases the risk of damage due to multiple handlings. For island projects, logistics become even more critical, with considerations for barge transportation and local concrete availability. Learn how we approach transportation and installation to ensure efficiency and minimize risks. #BuildingLogistics #ConcretePanels #concretewalls #customhomes #customhome #yyjconstruction #tiltup #yyjrealestate #energyefficienthomes #design #engineering #architecture #architect #durability

In this video, we break down the two primary methods for lifting concrete panels in construction: edge lift and face lift. Learn how edge lift anchors, hidden in the top of the panel, offer a faster, more efficient installation by hanging the panel plumb. We also cover face lifts, commonly used for two-story buildings, where the lifting points are visible in the finished wall. Discover how each method ties into the rebar and the role of crane size and engineering in safely lifting and placing panels. Whether you're looking for speed or specific design considerations, this video provides key insights into panel lifting techniques. #ConstructionLife #ConcreteSolutions #BuildingSmarter #concretewalls #customhomes #customhome #yyjconstruction #tiltup #yyjrealestate #energyefficienthomes #design #engineering #architecture #architect #durability

In this video, we explore the various insulation options for Concrete Insulated Panel (CIP) homes, focusing on EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) and XPS (Extruded Polystyrene). We explain the cost, R-value, and long-term performance of each, highlighting why EPS is our go-to for its cost-effectiveness and versatility. Learn how water absorption can degrade XPS over time and why EPS's open-cell structure allows it to maintain its performance. We also discuss how insulation thickness impacts energy efficiency, the role of vapor barriers, and how CIP systems offer superior airtightness. Plus, find out how we prevent pests and ensure efficient installations with custom-cut EPS panels.
