10+1 BENEFITS OF THE ISB® BUILDING SYSTEM
- Rapid Construction: The ISB® Building System enables rapid on-site construction and installation, with the modular building time for a single-storey residential building of 100 m2 being just 10 working days once the host structure is completed.
- Versatility: It allows for the construction of multi-storey office and apartment buildings of up to four levels, catering to various architectural needs.
- Roof Options: The system supports the construction of both flat roof and high roof structures, offering flexibility in design and functionality.
- Adaptability to Climate: With a wide range of structural layers, the ISB® System is adaptable to local climatic conditions worldwide, ensuring suitability for diverse environments.
- Global Availability: Required raw materials are readily available worldwide, and manufacturing and building tools are easily transportable. Consequently, the technology can be applied globally, regardless of location.
- Versatile Applications: The system is highly adaptable for attic and additional storey construction, as well as for traditional renovations and upgrades, offering solutions for various architectural projects.
- Earthquake Resistance: Engineered for earthquake resistance, the ISB® System is suitable for constructing new buildings in earthquake-prone areas and for reconstructing disaster-stricken regions, ensuring safety and resilience.
- Comprehensive Construction: Both floor and roof constructions are integrated within the system, providing a holistic solution for building projects.
- Compatibility with Existing Structures: The ISB® Building System can be seamlessly integrated with existing structures, facilitating renovations, extensions, or additional storey constructions with ease.
- Wind-resistant: Thanks to the sized monolithic reinforced concrete frame structure, another advantage of the technology is the possibility of sizing for wind loads.
- +1. Economic advantage from the construction perspective: Due to the technology’s low cost and structural wall thickness, the builder can expect a lower gross construction cost and/or a larger net usable area (sales price).
