The foundation
of the Weingartens' house is not your typical one. Special forms,
called ICFs -- insulating concrete forms, were used to hold the
concrete, which was mixed on-site to ensure proper hardness. It
took over 90 yards for the entire house -- up to three trucks at
a time in tight quarters. The Weingartens added two inches of foam
to the outside of the insulated forms, as well as the slab, just
to be thorough.
