Insulating Concrete Forms<br />

The Easiest Way to Support your <strong>Green</strong> Roof<br />

What if you could build in less time, save on operating costs<br />

and be green? With <strong>Quad</strong>-<strong>Lock</strong> you can.<br />

�<br />

�<br />

No susceptibility to water damage<br />

Lower appetite for energy – high R-values / zero air infiltration<br />

Faster construction time; forming and insulating in one step<br />

Extensive lifecycle – concrete buildings last hundreds<br />

of years<br />

No air infiltration – superior indoor air quality<br />

for occupants<br />

Disaster resistance – safety and<br />

security<br />

Lower costs for operations &<br />

maintenance<br />

40% less concrete is<br />

required<br />

No CFCs, HCFCs, no off-gassing<br />

With a concrete substrate, there is little or no change to the structural<br />

design to add a green roof...<br />

Why <strong>Green</strong> Your Roof?<br />

Lower stormwater runoff – 65 to 94%<br />

Reduce the size of stormwater detention tanks<br />

Reduce CO2 production, increase oxygen<br />

Double the service life of the roof<br />

Reduce the urban heat island effect<br />

Save on heating and cooling costs<br />

Reduce or eliminate roof drain systems<br />

Reduce noise<br />

Enhance the urban setting<br />
