Upper floor coloured slab now set and ready for SIPs.
The brown upper floor slab has been poured. Tomorrow the bottom plates will be anchored down so the wall panels can be placed.
Simon is installing the stairs to the upper floor. Installation of the wall panels and then the roof trusses should finish the week off nicely.
Hambro and Heating… the warm floor option!
The Hambro truss system allows an easy span of the upper floor slab. Less labour and building materials meets RDC’s green building practices.
The upper floor ready for the slab pour on Monday. This will be the last hydronic layout Ralph Kinnis will have to do. Now we have to wait for the working system to feel how the amazing the performance will be.
Insulspan panels make RDC’s ‘Green building’ list.
Insulspan panels easily installed on the main floor. The deck and floor package has been attached and is ready for the slab pour.
Insulspan SIPS walls on the rise!

Dave Stevenson of Insulspan (on the left) is onsite giving the best of SIP installation advice to the RDC crew. Thanks for your great tips Dave, amazing customer service!
Insulspan SIP panels are easy to install. Caulking and place each panel from one corner, working around the building perimeter. Each floor takes a day to place and secure. Wall insulation is in each panel, which will reduce labour costs on insulating the walls later.
Insulspan SIP panels ready for top plate install, then securing to the bottom plates.
Simon Babin enjoying the view through the living room window opening. All in a day’s work. Merci beaucoup Simon.
