Structural Insulated Panels: feedback?
This question is just to draw out opinions on kit homes built with S.I.P.’s.
Want to build a 2 story house; possibly kit form, in Northern Ca. –very rainy climate–How do these things hold up? Any building experiences that reflect the pros, cons, of this material? Basic house would have a metal roof, footings/stem wall foundation, concrete floors-radiant heat……

piffin, thanks for the lead; and in fact, I went in to the archives this morning on a hunch that there would be 'fodder for thought' there. (43 SIP related items). Actually, I was introducing a friend to the site, and I posed the question on their behalf..........they were intrigued by the idea and didn't have time to stay and search over my shoulder.

Personaly, I don't know quite enough about them to speak intelligently to subject yet but I knew it had a lot of coverage here lately. The search feature hadn't been working very good so I didn't know if you had tried and missed, maybe.
And it's always hard to know if someone is looking more for active discussion or reading information. Phrase more questions and you get more answers. Hope they have the URL for BT now and log in soon!.
