Wall Panels Arrive

This afternoon the Thermapan Structural Insulated Panels arrived. This is what we will be using to make the basement and main floor walls. They arrived on a flatbed and the driver had a very cool forklift that came off the side and placed them on the site for us.

The panels have foam insulation between OSB sheets, and go into place much quicker than stickframe construction. And there is no need to vapour-barrier, and your siding goes directly on the exterior, and drywall directly on the interior.

Here is a link to the official site where there are videos of them being installed.
