At Total Integrated Panel Systems (TIPS) we manufacture a product that dramatically improves the energy efficiency of the structures it is utilized in, while at the same time saving time and money through a reduction in the standard materials needed for construction. Our patented TIPS system will make your next project come together faster and in a stronger and more versatile way.
There are a variety of design options to hold panels in place. There can be connections at the footing, slab, between panels, and at the roof diaphragm. It just depends on what the engineer feels is needed based on controlling forces.
Thanks for your question. Because the EPS is eventually covered by concrete, structures built with this system will have at least a 2 hour fire rating.
Thanks for your questions. The pneumatic connection is faster and stronger than tying wire. This does not change the final strength of the building, but is useful to keep the wall straight during the construction process. The size of the rebar is dependent on the height of the wall and determined by the engineer.
el otro problema que veo con esa construcción es ....... como diablos fijo a los muros la pantalla? o como fijo los muebles de la cocina integral si hay poliestireno en el núcleo? o de cuanto es el repellado ? de 4 cm?
Gracias por el comentario. Debido a que este sistema tiene 2 pulgadas de concreto en cada lado, no necesita encontrar un poste en la pared para colocar gabinetes, televisores, cuadros o cualquier otro objeto. Se pueden colocar en cualquier lugar directamente en el concreto y serán más seguros que si se colocan en la madera.
Gracias por el comentario. En general, no hemos visto ningún problema con la recepción celular y el wifi solo se ha interrumpido si pasamos por varios niveles de construcción con nuestro sistema. En ese caso, es posible que se necesite un refuerzo para garantizar que no se interrumpa el servicio.
The thickness is accounted for in the initial design. If a structure was designed with another system in mind, it is necessary to have the engineering redone to look at the need for additional reinforcement and alignment.
We are a direct to the customer manufacturer, trying to avoid markups by distributors.

Let us know where you are located and we can get you in touch with the right person.
If you look at the trunk of a coconut palm tree. You will see that the core is soft and sponge like while the exterior is hard yet it withstands hurricanes.
I built my home in Mexico with this material for several reasons. Fire resistance, wind resistance, thermal, seismic and termite resistance. It is the most comfortable home I have ever lived in by far.
I am ready to build my house in Mexico with this material ( Jalisco). By watching all the videos from the company ( in Spanish, which, furthermore helps me learning Spanish 😂), it sounds pretty easy to build it. My main concern, as I am in the countryside and off grid, is to find a team at least to follow the (mine) instructions. I will contact the company soon to ask for referring me to contractors.
is it shotcrete or gunite? Isn't a 2 inches by 2 inches mesh overkill? Have seen 6 inchs by 6 inchs structural mesh in houses. How do you align the concrete after being poured ? Do you use some plastering rendering machine to cut the concrete? or Bull Marks?
