eliminates job site clutter the metal fastening strips also function as the vertical reinforcing for the concrete together forming a composite action and eliminating the vertical reinforcing bar common to other reinforced concrete wall constructions the composite relationship with the metal fastening strips partially embedded within the concrete is structurally more efficient than utilizing conventional reinforcing bar resulting in my system being 50 stronger with 35 less concrete than conventional reinforcing method thereby reducing the amount of concrete needed and proportionally the cost of the concrete the elimination of the vertical rebar further reduces material cost and installation labor conventional reinforcing bar is typically limited to two horizontal reinforcing bars that are placed within a continuous concrete beam at the top of the wall a lower concrete beam at the bottom of the wall acts as a base and a connection point to the slab or foundation whereupon the wall is constructed before the concrete is poured the foam in the walls acts as a form for the concrete and after the concrete is placed the foam provides highly efficient insulation an air and water infiltration barrier and a mounting surface for interior and exterior finishes such as drywall plaster stucco stone bricks or siding the wall is also an excellent sound attenuator with these innovations a safe quiet long lasting concrete structure can be built economically and in less time.
