Services Provided
Formworks
building, inc. is
a full service company specializing in the design
of highly efficient and self-sufficient structures. Our thin-shell
structural engineers routinely work with owners/builders and/or
professional contractors to ensure the resulting Formworks structure
is of high quality. Formworks structures,
built from our patented building-system components, have been
erected from coast to coast.
The Formfast2 and Polysecure4 systems have been designed to be constructed by any contractor of the homeowner’s choice. Many homeowners have acted as their own contractors. Formworks Building has worked with husband/wife teams that have put these kits together without complications or previous building experience. Our company is committed to each and every one of our projects from start to finish. Our staff will be available to assist homeowners throughout the building process.
Formworks can
review its extensive library of plans for features,
ideas, and configurations to help you decide
on a concept that works best for you. We want
to see you get the most out of your site and
achieve the best structure for your needs. Formworks registered
engineers can assist you with certified structural
and construction drawings. When additional state
certification is needed, Formworks has
associate engineers in most states.
For a detailed description of planning, designing, and constructing a Formworks home,
we recommend our book, THE
GUIDE ($24.95). THE GUIDE covers
cost analysis, finance planning, basic design, and construction sequence for
a Formworks home.
Also included are several sample plans.
In 1987, Formworks was
the only publicly available non-military shelter system allowed to participate

system has also won the United States Department of Energy award for energy innovation |
