A computational and empirical analysis of the thermal performance of insulating concrete formwork

The research presented in this EngD thesis focused on Insulated Concrete Formwork (ICF), a site-based, Modern Method of Construction (MMC). An ICF wall consists of modular prefabricated Expanded Polystyrene Insulation (EPS) hollow blocks and cast in situ concrete. The blocks are assembled on site an...
