Save Money
Easier and faster to install, fewer men required result in lower labor costs.
Walls are over 70% lighter than traditional construction walls. Reduced line loads result in
significant savings on foundation material.
The most efficient system available on the market - normally does not require a crane.
|
| |
|
Save Energy
Energy Start Compliant panels provide effective R-value=33.
Insulating component (EPS) is infused between two opposing steel frames eliminating
thermal bridging between framing components.
Insulating properties of EPS remain the same for the lifetime of a structure, unlike traditional
fiberglass insulation which loses its efficiency due to compression, dust and moisture retention.

|
Save on Trades
4 steps in 1, no blocking, no cripple studs.
Pre-molded wire chases minimize time spent on electrical work.
EPS easily cut with hot knife minimizing time spent on cutting openings in studs for plumbing.
Perfectly straight walls and floors minimize the job of dry liners, cabinet installers, and tilers.

Save on Callbacks
Exceptional dimensional stability, precise engineering result in straight walls, no popped
nails, no cracks, no warps, no mildew, no moisture, no shrinkage, no expansion.
A composite of steel and EPS result in no mildew, no moisture.

Easy to Install
Detailed shop drawings are as easy to follow as lego instructions.
Minimal learning curve, no special skills or tools required.
Accel offers FREE training of your framing crue!
Standard panel weighs 45 pounds.
Ship-lap joints and included sheet metal self tapping screws allow for quick, easy, and precise
component connection.

| |
|
Easy to Modify
Panels are easily modified in-field with standard framing tools.
Panels can be reduced in size, window and door openings can be adjusted in-field if needed.
Extra insulating material (EPS) is provided to fill in any gaps resulted from in-field modifications.
Our engineers are available for assistance with any questions throughout your project, or with
handling of any special cases.

Tested, Approved
Over 25 years in the field, not hours in the lab give insulated steel panels competitive advantage.
Extensive structural testing has been performed by independent laboratories under ASTM E 72, C-518-76, E 96-80, E 119, E 90, E 413 to evaluate the structural integrity of the panels and to obtain building code compliance. The following tests are being regularly performed on all sizes of the panels: Axial Compressive Load Tests, Racking Shear Load Test, and Transverse Load Tests.
Approvals:
CC-ES (International Code Council Evaluation Services)
ICBO - (International Conference of Building Officials) under the Uniform Building Code - ICBO # PFC 4216
BOCA- (Building Offices and Code Administration) under the National Building Code - Research Report #9140

Save on Utilities
You will save as much as 50% on utility costs! Your structure will have effective R-Value of 33 (the resistance a material has to heat flow. Higher numbers indicate greater insulating capabilities. For example, in traditional 2x6 wood framed structures effective R-Value is 13.7)
Traditional stick framed structure will loose its insulating properties over time due to dust and moisture retention. Due to unique features of our insulated steel panels, your structure will remain as insulated in 20 years as on day 1!

Save on Insurance

Save on Termites
Termites have been around for more than 240,000,000 years. They are present in 49 out of 50 states causing more damage to American houses than tornados, storms, and hurricanes COMBINED and cost Americans more than $1 billion each year.
At Accel we use galvanized steel as a primary building component. Terminte DO NOT eat steel!
|
| |
|
Save on Maintenance
Due to superior dimensional stability your walls will not shrink, twist, move, crack; nails will not pop.
Since steel is not succeptible to humidity, there will be no mildew, no decay, no rotting, no creeping, no warping.
|
| |
|
Healthier
Tight construction of steel homes allows for the effective use of air filtration systems that reduce the effect of external and internal pollutants.
Because steel framed homes are 'tightly' constructed, air filtration systems can be used effectively, to combat problems such as asthma and allergies.
Due to the fact that our system does not promote growth of mildew, there will be no allergies caused by mildew.
|
| |
|
Quieter
Reduced sound conduction rates result in imporoved acoustics.
|
| |
|
Safer
Steel does not contribute fuel to the spread of fire. The insulating component is fire retardant (in case of fire, it will melt but it will not contribute to spread of fire). Both facts results in superior fire rating.
Steel frame structures are lightening resistant because steel framing provides multiple conductive paths to the ground. If your steel framed home should get struck by lightning, the electrical current will pass straight into the ground.
|
| |
|
Stronger
Due to the superior strength and dimentional stability of our building systems, your home will be safer in a hurricane, tornado, earthquake, or flood.
|

|
Resale Value
Statistically steel homes sell for more.
