Ism Sismo

ism sismo is a permanent insulating shuttering kit for whole buildings (walls including basement walls, floors, roofs and their connections), to be filled on site with concrete (reinforced or not). the ism sismo module is composed of a tridimensional lattice made of galvanized steel wire, which is closed on both sides, inside and outside, with strips of insulating or non-insulating material. alternatively, insulating panels can be added and fixed to the side of the module. the choice for a certain type of module will depend on the required properties of the finished wall or floor as there are structural, thermal, hygrothermal, acoustic performance, fire resistance and reaction to fire. the stability of the final ism sismo wall is entirely assured by the concrete. the steel wire lattice and infill strips only provide stability during the provisional phase of pouring and maintaining fresh concrete. furthermore the lattice acts as an armature and as an anchoring for the cladding or render
