Has anyone worked with poly block construction. I talked with someone
from Mobile, and spoke very highly about it. Supposedly, you are able
to obtain an R-value of 50, and great wind properties (500mph) and not
a large amount of cost difference (in compared to trad. 2 *6 framing).
He mentioned how easy it is to work with, however. I hear it is
becoming popular post Katrina. I am in Houston, and I haven't heard
much about it locally.
