Please answer each question with as much detail as possible to help in the judging process.Describe the end use of the building: This is a Single Family Home, built over piles in Monroe County, close to open ocean.

How did SIP construction help you get this job? Due to the location of this project, salty environment, high exposure to wind and humidity that surrounds buildings in Monroe County (The Florida Keys), the contractor wanted to use a material able to be thermal resistant, with high performance in moisture conditions and energy efficient. The system reduced the time of construction on the General Contractor, labor costs and finishes.

SIP wall thickness and core material: 6 3/4" High Impact MgO SIPSSIP roof thickness and core material: 8 1/2" MgO/ Plywood SIPS

Describe the benefits of using SIPs on this project. Did SIPs help save time, labor, construction costs, or energy? This project is located in the Florida Keys, where labor costs are very high and typical concrete structures cost over $100 a SQ.FT. The MgO SIP System was able to meet all of the hurricane code requirements in the highest wind zone in Florida and saved the builder substantial cost over the typical construction.

Describe any innovative design elements or structural engineering involved: This home located in the Florida Keys, Hurricane Coastal Impact Zone, was designed for 180 MPH Hurricane force winds and uses the Innova High Impact MgO SIP Panels, which are tested and approved for plus 200 MPH winds.

Please list any certifications the project received, such as ENERGY STAR, LEED, National Green Building Standard, WELL, Passive House, Green Globes or local green building programs. Only list certifications that are completed: N/A

Describe the HVAC system used on the project: Rheem Split Unit 1.5 Tons
