One proven way that design teams can deliver a virtually airtight, low-embodied building envelope is by integrating structural insulated panels (SIPs) during the planning stages of a project.
The industry’s most prominent offsite construction awards program, the Building Excellence Awards showcase outstanding residential and commercial projects that demonstrate the design flexibility, long-lasting energy performance and resiliency of structural insulated panels.
As industry professionals are challenged to deliver comfortable, healthy and more resilient structures, the offsite construction awards program recognizes outstanding residential and commercial projects that use structural insulated panels in walls, roofs and floors to create a nearly impermeable building envelope
Although SIPs often are used as the primary structural elements in light commercial buildings, many project teams also use the panels as skins over metal structural frames
USG Structural Panel Concrete Roof Deck is the first and only FM approved noncombustible structural panel sheathing in accordance with FM Standard 4472 for use in low-slope roof systems.
