Protect Your Family: Build A Fire Resistant Home

Protect Your Family: Build A Fire Resistant Home

Fires continue to ignite across Los Angeles and Santa Barbara Counties.

House Fire

“Two sprawling wildfires tore through at least 4,500 acres in the San Gabriel Mountains on Monday, and only a canyon prevented the blazes from merging into one massive inferno, fire officials said.

The two brush fires broke out in Azusa and Duarte amid a blistering heat wave, forcing the evacuation of hundreds of homes and at least 750 residents.

The first blaze, called the Reservoir fire, was reported about 11 a.m. at Highway 39 in the San Gabriel Mountains, said Andrew Mitchell, spokesman for the Angeles National Forest.”

EcoSteel Homes Are Fire Resistant

EcoSteel significantly reduces the fire hazards posed by the many combustible materials common in most homes and offices today. Steel is a non combustible material and the panelized insulated panels of our fire resistant homes provide a resistant shell—protecting your home and values, as well they count with a fire sprinkler system installation in case of emergencies. Insurance rates may be reduced by using fire resistant structural materials such as steel.

Featured Project: Miami Modern Prefab

Miami Modern Prefab – The Tin Box: Pioneering the Future of Sustainable Architecture
Written By Kerissa Glentz

When EcoSteel client David Rifkind and his wife, Holly Zickler set out to build The Tin Box, they didn’t realize their project would become such a large public spectacle. This green design has since drawn the attention of neighbors and news channels alike; just one of many unintended consequences they have experienced by building their home from 100 percent recycled steel materials.

The couple and their design dream team had three major objections in mind; bring in social sustainability, ecological sustainability and mix it with top notch design quality. The result? A beautifully functional, economically manufactured home strong enough to withstand hurricanes, termites, mold, and any other growths typical of tropical living.

Let’s take a closer look at how EcoSteel helped produce this award winning residence:

Social sustainability: Located adjacent to public parks, The Tin Box serves to enrich the community by helping people see how simple energy conservation is, and how it can easily be achieved in normal day to day living. The house has also provoked local discussion about sustainable construction and site development strategies, in addition to providing an opportunity for building inspectors to study the successful use of steel technologies.

Ecological sustainability: The Tin Box was designed to use the least amount of energy and water possible. Not only during its construction period, but throughout the function of the home, an effort to “both reduce energy demand and replace fossil fuels.” Rifkind says. The home uses 100 percent recycled water gathered from steel rainwater cistern outside. The water is then run through three filters, a string filter, a UV lamp and a charcoal filter which purifies the water for indoor use.

Quality design: The home features a structural steel frame, with prefabricated panels which consume just one-seventh of the energy needed to fabricate a traditional home in the Miami area, making it ideal for solar and wind energy capability. With the durability of steel material from EcoSteel, also comes additional energy saving tactics-the strength of this unconventional frame keeps its stature safe from natural disasters and other harsh weather conditions.

From affordability to planted green roofing, this high-performance building is sure to have long lasting admiration. And with the goal of building a net-zero energy home, this couple get to reap the benefits of economic reward, as well as an abundance of personal gratification.

EcoSteel specializes in providing all-steel materials for economical and durable architectural development. We use 3D technology to bring our structural concepts to life, allowing our architect and builder counter parts to continue the design process by visually honing in on the specifications of each project.
