Designing with ICF for Maximum Architectural Flexibility

Welcome to Amvic ICF, where innovation meets practicality in construction. Our Design Guide serves as an essential resource for building structures within the Republic of Ireland that fall under the “Consequence Class 1” classification, as outlined in Table 6 of The Irish Building Regulations Technical Guidance Document Part A. 

This comprehensive guide is tailored to support builders, architects, engineers, and construction professionals in specifying wall thickness, reinforcement, and construction details for projects utilising the Amvic Insulated Concrete Formwork System.

For projects outside the scope of this guide, consultation with a Chartered Structural Engineer is recommended to ensure compliance and structural integrity. It remains the responsibility of supervising construction professionals to adhere to all requirements outlined in The Irish Building Regulations Technical Guidance Document Part A.
