## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ an excellent source for hard to find information
*by D***T on June 18, 2006*

this book provides a thorough and well detailed look at SIP anatomy and construction techniques. information on this construction type is extremely difficult to find from sources other than (possibly biased or glossed-over) information from SIP manufacturers. the content covers so many details of its construction that it could concievably be used as a primer/manual/textbook for contractors or others interested in using this construction type. any information needed to supplement the information found here will most likely be so specific that it will be material related to a particular manufacturer's product or information gleaned directly from materials testing reports. i have looked extensively, and not been able to find, any materials on SIPs that could compare to the value of this source.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Starting Point for Learning about SIPS
*by T***L on September 21, 2005*

Just a quick note on this book. My wife and I are looking to build an energy-efficient home. We are both engineers and very detail-oriented people. As part of our due diligence, we picked up this book after seeing a demonstration house built with SIPS as part of the 2005 Smithsonian Folk Life Festival (this was part of the US Forest Service pavilion - sustainable building approaches area). As noted in an earlier review, this book does have a bit of a promotional feel. However, it could simply be the author's enthusiasm for what appears to be a very good product. The book is also somewhat light in treating potential problems with SIPS. The failures of mutliple SIP roofing systems in Juneau, Alaska should have been addressed. In fairness though, these failures seem to largely be installation problems on the part of a small number of builders unfamiliar with the product. Overall, this book is a very useful and fairly detailed introduction to SIPS building. We would love to see a follow-up title that goes into much more technical detail on designing for SIPs use, as well as further exploration of lessons-learned from using SIPs in various settings and climates.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Seems to be useful today
*by G***C on March 9, 2014*

It would be nice to update the information with 2014 material. I am guessing that many techniques have changed, and perhaps the SIP manufactures can now install a 4" Plumbing roof vent in the walls during the planning stages? The pictures of how they did it in the field back in 2000, it seems very cumbersome.How about it? A revised version of the same book?Thanks it is still useful to get a understanding of how SIPS work.
