Want to lower project costs and enjoy a faster build \"\"cycle all while improving the quality of the finished product? Of course you do. HercuTech\u2019s HercuWall<\/a>, the poster child of reNEWable Living Home 2018, makes it possible.<\/p>\n

The Product<\/strong><\/p>\n

HercuWall offers the durability of composite concrete construction without the need for steel rebar. The product comes with a water and vapor barrier, and it is dust free, impervious to mold, and unappealing to termites.<\/p>\n

Each HercuWall kit is computer generated and precision cut to meet product specifications, including casings for windows and doors. Upon delivery, block masons and framers can quickly and easily assemble the prefabricated panels\u2014each weighing 40 pounds or fewer–without any modifications on the site. Builders can enjoy less mess, no wasted materials, and reduced worksite clutter.<\/p>\n

Completed HercuWall products came in a range of insulation value ratings, including R-20, R-29 and R-33. When supported with energy efficient windows and adequate HVAC units, HercuWall can reduce energy costs by 40-60 perce\"\"nt. The performance of the product does not diminish over time, resulting in long lasting durability and comfort.<\/p>\n

Now for the information that you\u2019ve been waiting for: HercuWall is competitively priced with block and wood framing. The prefabricated kits make it quick and easy to assemble, reducing the labor and time needed. HercuTech cites that a 2,400 square-foot production house can be installed in 2.5 hours and concrete placed in two more hours with a crew of five.<\/p>\n

According to the HercuTech website: \u201c<\/strong>Experts predict that this type of construction will have higher resale value than conventionally built structures.\u201d<\/p>\n

Live Applications<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are several completed residences in Arizona<\/a> as well as the Meritage Homes reNEWable Living Home<\/a>, a partnership with BUILDER Magazine. The reNEWable Living Home showcases groundbreaking products in sustainable building. HercuWall helped the model house achieve optimal energy efficiency.<\/p>\n

Meritage Homes has five additional HercuWall projects in queue, all based in Orlando.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe intent moving forward in Orlando is to continue to prototype up to five more homes to further identify operational efficiencies such as streamlining lead times, installation, and costs associated with Hercuwall,\u201d says Thaddeus Lynch, vice president of purchasing at Meritage Homes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
