Ancillary Products for Insulating Concrete Forms
Reward Wall Systems has designed these patented products in order to further enhance the ease of construction when using ICFs.
xLerator®
There's no comparison between xLerator and the pre-bent or bent-in-field rebar reinforcement used by traditional methods. This patented design is a one-piece wire reinforcement that simply drops into the pre-formed slot in Reward's ledge and taper top form.
No tying or lapping is required reducing labor costs and time-consuming delays. It's fully engineered to properly address ledge loads and galvanized to protect against corrosion which can lead to reduced capacity of the concrete. Available exclusively from Reward the xLerator is the only ICF ledge reinforcement system to meet ACI 318 guidelines.
The ledge and taper top form reinforced with xLerator can support an allowable service load of 1700 plf.
U.S. Patent Number 7437858
tieKey®
Reward Wall Systems tieKey® is the only patent-pending ICF masonry anchor in the market, designed to hold the veneer to the wall to resist lateral loads as according to building codes.
This unique patent-pending design is available in hot-dipped galvanized or stainless steel. It is an easy to install, cast-in-place, adjustable masonry tie anchor embedded into the concrete wall formed by the ICF. This product is designed to provide the strength and security required when installing brick or stone veneer finishes.
Reward's tieKey is part one of a two part system; Reward's ICF masonry anchor and any standard wire tie. The masonry anchor is inserted through the ICF as the wall is constructed. The wire tie is installed by the mason contractor as the masonry facing is constructed. The tieKey® has been tested for tension and compression strength by an independent laboratory to verify its capacity to resist lateral loads.
