The strength, flexibility, and energy efficiency of Quad-Lock walls make sense for all exterior walls. • How high can I build? Multi-storey structures can be built with Quad-Lock, one storey at a time. Each storey is stacked 8′-12′ high [2.4-3.6m] and poured in 2′-4′ lifts [60-120cm] in a continuous pour. • Do the forms stay on after the concrete is poured?
