Drawbacks of Stick Frame Construction
- The quality of the home is directly related to the skill of carpenters building the home.
- Lumber supply is often dependent upon outside suppliers and prices are volatile and hard to predict.
- Stick Frame construction requires expensive skilled labor.

Stick Frame Construction Is Obsolete!
Stick Frame construction is the most popular type of housing system in the US and Canada, however, wood building techniques have remained relatively unchanged for the past 100 years.

Wood is Subject to Rot and Infestation by Insects
“Termites cause more damage to homes in USA than fire, floods, storms and tempest combined.” -The Fumapest Group
Far Superior to SIP Construction
The U.S. Department of Energy in speaking about Structural Integrated Panel (SIP) construction says:
“Improper installation may reduce many of the benefits of SIPs.”
“Fire safety (and insect problems) are two major concerns that are common when building with SIPs.”
“...Rodents may also become a problem when building with SIPs.”
ReZist-It Has None of Concrete Construction's Technical, Cost or Thermal Issues

- Concrete isn’t a logical solution for World Housing and disaster relief due to limited resources.
- Concrete has many good qualities, however, making changes to the structure once it has been poured is difficult.
- Concrete has to be mixed properly otherwise it can cause serious long term structural problems.
- A concrete home can be expensive.
- Concrete is a poor insulator and unless the structure is correctly designed with complicated and expensive solar and mechanical analysis the structure will act as a heat sink and can increase energy costs. A properly designed building requires the addition of large amounts of glass and insulation, increasing costs
