Frequently asked questions

Camber wall panels

Meets all IBC 2018 & 2021 codes, including most stringent seismic and structural specs.

- Rated for 170 mph winds
- 50 pound snow load
- Engineered for Southern California seismic loads Ss = 2.3

SustainMix ie. Camber Conrete

Fiber reinforced 4000 concrete mix with rebar reinforced during printing for added strength.

- 2 #4 rebar section in top header
- 2 #4 rebar sections in bottom plate
- 1 #4 rebar in each 2 inch wide stud
- 1 #4 rebar through center support

Dimensions

Total wall width is between 5.5 and 7.5 inches thick with face layer between 1.5 - 2 inches thick.

Concrete studs on the backside are similar to traditional framing dimensions (2x4, 2x6, 2x8… etc).

Same dimensions and spacing as traditional framing, (ie. 16 or 24 on center) allowing for use of similar construction materials (ex. Same insulation, etc.).

Exterior finish

Our walls are printed face-down into molds which allows us to replicate practically any type of exterior finish (lap siding, brick, board and batten, etc.). Walls can be colored during printing, or post printing with stain or concrete paint.

Installation speed

Just how fast?

Our panels are engineered with a 4k - 5k max weight to ensure traditional telehandler capacity. Panels have J-bolts placed throughout the header to allow jig attachment for lifting. Each panel has labeling for placement instruction. Once delivered, all panels can be placed in a day or two (based on home size).

Footing attachment

Camber wall panels are attached to the footings with either a bolt or weld plate. In situations where plates on footings were not installed in the correct location, titan anchors and plates can be used.

Roof joist attachment

J-bolts are placed at the top of each wall panel during printing to allow for the installation of a treated 2x6 top plate. With the treated top plate attached any approved roof joist bracket that meets your local code can be used to secure your roof joist.

Windows

Wall panels have built-in headers to every wall. Headers comprise of two #4 rebar sections that span the entire length of the wall on the top of the wall. This allows for window openings up to 7' with no additional engineering required. Windows are trimmed with treated 2x6 boards with tapcon anchors which allows for window attachment the same way you attach with traditional framing.

Doors

Built-in headers to every wall with 2 #4 rebar pieces spanning the entire length of the wall at the top. This allows for door openings up to 6 feet wide with no additional engineering required. Door openings are trimmed with treated 2x6 boards secured with tapcon anchors, which allows for doors to be attached the same way as with traditional framing.

Electrical

Spacers / inserts are placed in each stud during printing to quickly run electrical lines.

Plumbing

Studs can be cut to allow for plumbing lines.

Up to two studs can be removed in any wall to accommodate running of plumbing lines without adding additional structural support. If additional studs need to be cut a structural plate or rod can be added to studs to provide additional strength.

Vapor barrier

We apply Deco20 waterproof barrier with ASTM E 96 - permeability rating of 0.102 perms. This places it at the threshold of Class I and Class II barriers. Class I requirement is 0.1 perms or less and Class II is 0.1 - 1.0 perms.

Corners

Utilizing interlocking corner method, makes for only a 3 inch portion of exposed concrete that doesn't have the exterior finish. This is easily covered with traditional corner trim boards.

Wall interlocking

Walls are adjoined together with bolt plates.

Top plate

J-bolts are placed during printing to allow for installation of a treated top plate. With a top plate, roof joists can be attached using any approved traditional joist brackets that meets code.

Polymer

Polymer is laid on the last layer of printing to allow for traditional drywall attachment.

Face-down printing

Patent pending - filed May 11, 2022 - allows us to print a studded wall that resembles traditional framing dimensions (2x4, 2x6, etc.) and spacing (16” or 24” on center) offering familiarity to subcontractors.
