Hi-Tech Building Systems
Corporation has revolutionized the construction industry by creating
the Armopanel™ panelized system, which is less expensive,
easier to use and more effective than other wall erection methods.
The Armopanel™ panel consists
of two polystyrene sheets (of standard size 48" x 96")
connected by means of metal meshes and plastic caps. The panels
are extremely light and can be installed within minutes by two
workers. Armopanel™ system
can be supplied pre-fabricated as 3-Dimensional formworks or as
an assembly kit of Armopanel™
system's components to be assembled into 3-Dimensional formworks
on the construction site. Furthermore, due to the interlock system
of Armopanel™ formwork, the project concrete walls can be
easily and quickly erected. The removable plastic caps, which
are included within the Armopanel™
formwork, facilitate the installation of any
|
interior drywall or exterior siding. You simply screw the siding
or drywall into the plastic caps at intervals of 8", 16"
or 24". If the exterior finish is stucco, removal of the
plastic caps and filling the cavities with adhesive serve as
additional mechanical anchorage for stucco. Therefore, the reliability
and durability of stucco is ensured and costs of maintenance
are significantly reduced.
ARMOPANEL™ GUARANTEES
THE SAFETY OF YOUR HOUSE
Walls built with Armopanel™
panelized system have a Fire Resistance Rating (FRR) of up to
4 hours depending on the concrete wall thickness. In the Armopanel™
system, plastic elements that facilitate the spreading of fire
are not present within the concrete. In addition, your house
will be protected from hurricane, tornadoes (winds of up to
140 miles per hour) and other natural disasters.
A HOUSE BUILT WITH ARMOPANEL™
OFFERS EXCELLENT COMFORT
Walls built with Armopanel™
panelized system provide excellent insulation (at least R20)
and superior noise reduction (sound transmission class varies
from 42 to 50). These benefits render your house quiet, cool
in the summer and warm in the winter. The Armopanel™
formwork contains no formaldehyde, asbestos and fiberglass.
Therefore, your home is both exceedingly comfortable and environmentally
friendly.

A HOUSE BUILT WITH ARMOPANEL™
IS ENERGY EFFICIENT |
|
Apart from the superior polystyrene
insulation offered by Armopanel™
system, the formwork is designed so there would be an air gap
between the drywall and the polystyrene board of Armopanel™
formwork. This feature causes the structure to be extremely thermally
stable and reduces utility bills by up to 70%. |
|
ARMOPANEL™
SYSTEM IS AN AFFORDABLE METHOD FOR THE ERECTION OF ANY HOUSE.
Armopanel™ is a cost efficient system
that allows you to save in the following aspects:
- The construction time is shortened by
up to 30%,
- Labor costs are reduced by 50%
- Less on-site equipment (such as scaffolding, bracing, welding,
crane etc.) is necessary, cutting equipment costs by up to 70%
- Lower insurance premiums by up to 20%
- Spending on maintenance and repairs is reduced by up to 70%
- A safe, well insulated and durable house will have a market
value higher by up to 15%.

ARMOPANEL™ CONCRETE
WALL SYSTEM
|
It is an innovative panelized
insulating formwork. The system is easily installed by interlocking
prefabricated panels. Each panel consists of two 50mm (2")
thick, high density, flame resistant sheets, which are made from
Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) or Extruded Polystyrene (XPS). The
sheets are connected by means of unique steel meshes and are fastened
by plastic caps. The meshes within the panel also facilitate installation
of vertical and horizontal reinforcement. The panels are lightweight,
easy to cut and have a safe and easy interlocking mechanism.
VERSATILITY IN DESIGN
Armopanel™ system
allows wall concrete thickness of 4", 6", 8", 10",
12" and /or 14"and is applicable to projects in the
residential and |
commercial spheres.
Apart from plain panels [of standard height 96" (2400mm)
and width of 48" (1200mm)] that are offered in H or V (add
on) designs, the Hi-Tech Building System Corporation offers a
variety of other panels for your construction needs: T-panels,
brickledge panels, foundation and industrial foundation panels.
In addition, corner panels are offered in a variety of angles:
90°, 120°, 135° and etc. |
COST EFFICIENCY
Unlike other ICF systems that have blocks of size 48"(W)
x 12"(H), 48"(W) x 16"(H),
48"(W) x 24"(H), the Armopanel™
ICF system utilizes panels with standard size of
48"(W) x 96"(H). Consequently, 8, 6 or 4 blocks are
replaced with 1 easily installable panel (see illustration below).
Labor costs are reduced, construction period is significantly
shorter, and the implementation of the project is much easier
when Armopanel™ panelized
system is used.

Armopanel™
system is the better choice for all your construction requirements.
It is cost effective, convenient and yields well insulated buildings
with higher property value. So, do not waste any more time and
money on other wall erection methods, and let Hi-Tech Building
System Corporation show you how easy and efficient construction
can be.
