Build in Australia.
Design for
the Project.
Building well in Australia requires more than choosing a construction product. Climate, site conditions, architecture, structural engineering, building performance and the applicable project framework all need to work together. ISB® provides a building platform that can be integrated into that project-specific design and delivery process.
Different conditions.
One project-specific response.
Australia contains very different climates, landscapes and site conditions. A residential building solution should therefore respond to the project rather than assume that one specification is appropriate everywhere.
Design for the location.
AUSTRALIA
Design for performance.
The project determines the final solution.
Quality starts
behind the finish.
Building quality begins long before visible finishes are selected. It starts with structure, envelope design, thermal and acoustic performance, engineering and the technical details that influence how the building performs throughout its life.
Thermal Performance
The building envelope can be developed around climate, insulation strategy, orientation and project-specific performance requirements.
Acoustic Performance
Wall-system configurations can be assessed against the acoustic performance objectives defined for the individual project.
Reinforced Concrete Structure
Project-specific reinforcement and concrete work together with the ISB® permanent formwork elements to create the engineered structural system.
Building Envelope
Walls, openings, interfaces, insulation and climate strategy are coordinated as parts of one building rather than isolated product choices.
Windows & Openings
Window specification, glazing, shading and installation details form part of the overall comfort and building-performance strategy.
Engineering & Detailing
Foundations, wall junctions, floors and structural interfaces are resolved through coordinated, project-specific engineering.
One building system.
Project-specific compliance.
The ISB® system becomes part of an Australian project through project-specific architecture, engineering, documentation and assessment. The applicable pathway depends on the building, location, jurisdiction and the regulatory requirements relevant to that project.
Bring the system together.
PROJECT
Deliver it through the right pathway.
From an idea to a building in Australia.
A project does not need to begin with a complete professional team. It can start with a site, an architectural idea, a development opportunity or simply the decision to explore whether ISB® is suitable for the building.
Define the Project
Location, building type, programme, design objectives, performance expectations and development priorities.
Site & Opportunity
Review the site, planning context, access, climate and other project-specific conditions relevant to the design.
Architecture
Develop the building around site response, orientation, spatial requirements and architectural intent.
ISB® Engineering
Integrate structural logic, element planning, reinforcement and technical interfaces into the project.
Project Framework
Coordinate the applicable NCC, State or Territory, planning, approval and professional requirements for the individual project.
Construction Preparation
Coordinate production information, site logistics, builder workflow and project documentation.
Build
Deliver the building through the project builder and coordinated technical support.
Completed Building
A project-specific Australian building developed around its defined architectural, structural and performance objectives.
You don't need to assemble everything yourself.
Bring an existing architect, engineer, builder or development partner — or begin with the project itself. The project team can be structured around the opportunity while professional responsibilities remain with the appropriately qualified specialists involved.
Design the Building
Architecture, spatial planning, site response and integration of the building system from the beginning.
For Architects →Structure the Opportunity
Spatial efficiency, development strategy and a coordinated route from opportunity through design and construction.
Developers & Investors →Build the System
Element assembly, reinforced concrete construction, production planning, technical detailing and project support.
For Builders →
One system.
One real project.
The Catral Villa in Spain demonstrates how ISB® building technology can move from architectural design through structural engineering, system planning and project coordination towards a real residential development.
The system is the starting point.
The building is project-specific.
Engineer for the building.
Work through the applicable Australian project framework.
Build the complete project — not just the wall.
