Insulation - Small and Large

The Endura Wall System™ consists of three components, each one with multiple functions in the wall’s performance:

1. Block - is the primary structural element; however, it also has dramatic thermodynamic properties in its design which features off-set webbed cross-members and a middle linear wall. The offset webs constrict heat flow across the block. The middle wall also increases compressive strength.


2. EPS Inserts - are installed as the block is set with one set interlocking the block. These not only effectively insulate the wall, but also help produce the impressive STC 61 sound rating of the system.


3. Surface Bonding - is applied to both sides of the block. It unifies the block into a solid wall panel as well as creating a water-proof and airtight surface. As such, it is also impervious to termites, insects, rodents, and other pests. The fact that it has the same expansion- contraction coefficient as the block also reduces the possibility of cracking. It becomes a part of the block.

Two #4 rebar are generally used for the horizontal and vertical reinforcement grouted bond beams.

The system is cost competitive with any other form of comparable conventional wall, yet delivers a final product that is far superior “dollar for dollar” than any other product.

The final “Endura” building has the following characteristics:

• Up to 70% energy efficient
• A 4-hour fire rating
• Sound performance rating of STC 61
• Structural integrity (up to 160 mph wind loads, withstands tornado rated wind bursts, highest seismic rating)
• Water proof and airtight (no drafts)
• Termite, insect, ant, spider, rodent proof
• Does not foster mold problems
• Virtually maintenance free
• Aesthetically can be finished with almost any look

It is not only incredibly cost effective, especially on a life-cycle basis, and super-energy efficient, but it is also a “green” building system. Its environmentally friendly nature is demonstrated in a multiplicity of ways:

1. Energy savings in production, installation, performance
2. Durable
3. No emissions
4. Raw materials and components are “green” rated
5. No mold

The fact that it is a “heavy-weight” system lends it to being highly culturally accepted outside of the U.S. and Canada as well as being structurally strong, durable, and thermodynamically efficient as a passive heat sink.

It lends itself to almost any design.

It can be used in single- or multi-family residential, commercial, industrial, agricultural, governmental, church, school, medical, and other institutional construction.

It is constructed rapidly with quickly trained labor.
