Concrete construction expertise
Considering a concrete floor or roof? Share your proposed Insuldeck system with Penna and discuss the layout, supporting construction, and coordination needed to define the work.
Penna Construction · Field work
System introduction
Insuldeck is used in concrete floor and roof construction. It serves a different role from ICF wall construction and must be considered within the building’s complete structural design.
The starting point is the proposed use: where the system sits, what supports it, and how it connects to the surrounding construction. Available plans and engineering details help make that discussion specific.
Bring Penna the current drawings and identify the floor or roof scope you want considered.
Floor and roof applications
01
For a proposed floor, share the layout, spans, support conditions, and intended use. Identify openings, changes in level, and connections to the surrounding structure. The construction discussion should reflect the specified loading requirements and the details provided by the project’s design professionals.
02
For a proposed roof, share the structural layout alongside the wider roof design. Drainage, waterproofing, penetrations, and any intended use above the structure all need coordination. A concrete roof remains part of a complete assembly. Its structural construction does not replace the need for properly designed waterproofing and drainage.
Key planning information
01
Show the distances to be spanned and the walls or other construction that provide support.
02
Identify stairs, services, and other planned openings so they can be considered with the structural layout.
03
Provide relevant sections and connection details, including changes in elevation or transitions to adjacent construction.
04
Explain site access and when the floor or roof work is expected to fit into the wider build.
Construction sequence
Temporary support, reinforcement, openings, and access for concrete placement need to be considered together. The construction sequence also affects when subsequent trades and building stages can proceed.
Share the latest drawings and identify any outstanding design decisions. This helps clarify the scope being discussed and the information needed before pricing and scheduling.
Connected construction
Where a project combines ICF walls with a concrete floor or roof, review those systems together. Their support conditions, levels, and connections need to align with the complete structural design.
Even if you are inquiring about only one part of the work, include the related drawings so the construction discussion has the necessary context.
Service questions
No. The ICF service described on this website concerns wall construction. Insuldeck concerns concrete floors and roofs.
Yes. Identify the particular scope you want considered and include drawings showing the supporting and adjacent construction.
Yes. Waterproofing and drainage remain necessary parts of the complete roof design.
Include the project location, proposed floor or roof use, plans, structural details, support conditions, and anticipated schedule.
