As a result this site is the best resource for school and college administrators who are responsible for the billions of dollars in construction and maintenance spent each year in education. In addition this registry is the only one-stop resource for architects who need information and specifications for their projects.
The Educational Construction Catalog is free to register and your participation is encouraged. Within this site you will be able to advertise products, services and display your specifications to the decision-makers of the educational community.

McGrane Design is an environmentally focused architectural design practice. Our services include architectural design, sustainable design, CHPS, and LEED project consulting.
McGrane Design is striving to create a new built condition that accomodates the user while minimizing its negative effects on the environment. This is achieved by beginning every project with a thorough site analysis that teaches us how we can use the prevailing winds, solar orientation, topography, context and user needs to determine our design strategy.
We pride ourselves in creating close client relationships. Our goal is to include the client in all stages of the design process. Communication of design ideas is discussed over informal meetings with physical models, three dimensional representations, virtual tours, and conventional line drawings. Clients are encouraged to be open about any concerns and design ideas that may arise at any point during the project. |

IntegraSpec Gulfsouth Grande Caribbean Condo Wins ICF Builder Award 2007
authorID= 173
Mr. Clark Ricks, Director, ICF Builder, Mapleton, Utah, presented the 2006 BEST HEAVY COMMERCIAL ICF Project Award to Mr. David Lindsey, President, IntegraSpec Gulfsouth, for the Grande Caribbean, a 160,000 sq2 Condominium Residence in Orange Beach, Alabama.
The Grande Caribbean had already received much notoriety as the largest IntegraSpec ICF project ever constructed, as well as surviving force five Hurricane Ivan at ground zero without any structural damage. Surrounding buildings collapsed under Ivan’s tidal surge.
Mr. Ricks stated the overall design complexity, insulated concrete flooring, concrete siding finish, energy efficiency, and the use of IntegraSpec ICF in decks, column, beams, corbels, and architectural reliefs were determining factors in winning the award. Of interesting note is that an IntegraSpec ICF Retirement Residence won this award last year.
This prestigious award is a very welcome addition to the numerous Energy Efficiency, Healthy Home, Global Traders, EnviroHome, Environmental Excellence, EnerQuality Corporation Design Excellence Awards, and ICF Builder Awards received for IntegraSpec ICF projects and products since 1997.
IntegraSpec ICF wallsystem is on display in the National Museum of Science and Technology.
