Describe the use of the building: Casual Dining location

SIP wall thickness: 8" EPS
SIP roof thickness: 10" EPS

Significant time savings: 7 man crew + crane errected the structure in 11 days of actual SIP install, 13 days for full dry in.

SIPs is a relatively new construction method for this area and the project benefited greatly by involving a local engineer who was crucial in reducing the amount of steel and other structural elements during a significant redesign and helped push changes through L.A.'s rigid building code, permit, and inspection process.
