Build Strength
SIPS are lightweight (approximately 25Kg/m2) making them easier and quicker to assemble on site. However SIPS are also noted for their superior strength. SIP buildings are capable of withstanding extreme climate and weather conditions.
Once completed, a SIPS structure forms a monolithic shell which is up to seven times stronger than a conventional timber frame structure. This provides a building with a very robust and solid feel which can be indistinguishable from a traditionally constructed building once complete. Heavy foundations are not required once again reducing cost and time.
