TYPES OF
TECHNOLOGIES
STICK FRAME (STEEL OR WOOD)
•Steel is lighter yet “dollar for dollar” structurally stronger than other framing
materials like wood, concrete and block
•Steel provides the highest strength to weight ratio of any building material
•Steel is 100% recyclable and is the most recycled construction material on
earth
•Steel is non-combustible (NFPA statistics show that wood is the third most
commonly first-ignited material).
•Steel is insusceptible to termites and other pests
•Steel does not rot, warp, split, crack or creep
•Steel is dimensionally stable (steel is straight, does not expand or contract
with moisture content).
•Steel is made of nearly 75% recycled material
•Steel can be erected by a low-skill level work force
•Steel has nearly limitless design flexibility •Steel’s spanning
capabilities exceeding 100’ can virtually eliminate load bearing walls
to create large open spaces

What Is SIP Technology
•“SIP” stands for “Structural Insulated Panel”, used in the construction industry for
building walls, floors and roofs.
•Typically made of two outer layers of structural sheathing material separated by an
insulating foam core
• 90+% of market uses Expanded Polystyrene foam, or EPS,
about R-3.7/in .We use Polyurethane foam, about R-7/in A SIP is a
superior product and replaces “stick-built” wall systems and
traditional insulation methods
•“Stick-built” method invented 1833
• Some disadvantages of “stick-built” include:
• Large use of dimensional lumber
• Inefficient insulating methods
• “Wavy walls”
• Often out of plumb/square
SIPS ADVANTAGES
•Ease of construction
–Homes can be dried-in in just a few days –or less
–Uses existing tools already on worksite
•Lower cost of home ownership
–Superior insulating properties
•Opportunity to reduce size of HVAC
•Offers comfortable, quiet living
–Potential to pay-off construction loan sooner
•Less expensive to assemble compared to stick-built
–Potential for significantly lower energy bills
•Environmentally friendly
–Allows for a VERY clean worksite
–Typically uses quickly replenished lumber products (OSB)
–Eliminates most use of dimensional lumber
–Most manufacturers uses CFC-free insulating agents
–Helps to qualify for Energy Star, HealthyBuilt and LEED Cert. homes
SIP ADVANTAGES (CONT)
• Manufactured in maximum 4ft wide increments and a variety of heights
–Allows for simple manual installation
–Small size minimizes site impact
–Lower cost, lower impact delivery and placement –“we can often be finished before they get their crane
in place!”
–Custom configurations often include
• Electrical conduit and junction boxes can be installed prior to foaming
• Framing for windows, doors (installed, or not), beam pockets, etc.
• Typically do not require any nails or screws to hold the panels together,
significantly increasing the speed of
assembly
• Connecting joints can be embedded in the foam on the vertical panel edge
•Allows for continuous envelope of insulation
–One uninsulated sq.ft. Of a typical wall can reduce effective R by around
40%
•A single 9’ 2x4 stud = more than 1sqft of R4 wall
–A stick-built wall is typically ~ 23% solid wood, with R=3.5 for 2x4 stud
•2 story home with 50ft side walls will have more than 600 sqft of R-4 wall reducing effective R by ~3040%!!!
•Typical SIP is most often divided by solid studs of wood or steel, allowing thermal
wicking of substantial volume over entire envelope.

BUILDING A SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITY
We will not pretend to have the solution to all the problems. But What we can do:
1. Creative input into your existing conditions and propose proper areas for new communities. This will requiere
evaluating the existing infrastructure as well as soil conditions and access. It will also require estimating methods of delivery and
erecting.
2. Design proper facilities and homes. These should be permanent and easily adaptable to expansion. We have started with a
central shared community area and located families homes around it to create a town feeling. We have also considered the limited
construction equipment available. All of the new facilities and residences can be erected with a small team of local workers with
minimal training or equipment.
3. Low impact or effects due to environments. We have taken all of the environmental conditions into consideration in order to
construct permanent facilities that are resistant to moisture, earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, and other harsh environment factors.
Our building system was developed for exactly this type of environment. And our team is experienced in training local residents to
build safe structures.
4. Adaptable to different regions. Our panelized system is easily adapted in the field and can be easily expanded to fit any needs
that may arise. This is extremely important in this environment. Expansion is a necessity. Our modular system makes this simple.
5. Building communities not just a housing project. Our system incorporates many sustainable features that help the residents to
live a high quality life in a real community. Our goal is to improve the quality of life permanently rather than a temporary fix.
6. Economic development programs that create jobs! Our goal is to build a manufacturing plant in Haiti and train and employ
50-100 local Haitians to work in the Factory. There will also be the need to employ 50-100 more Haitians for construction. This will not
only create many jobs, but will also help to create a sense of ownership with the locals when it comes to these projects.
