The HIB-System – The simple Building System

The HIB-System is a virtually problem free self-build system. The blocks are easily handled without the need for expensive lifting devices and lock into each other in a “Lego” style operation which achieves a very quick assembly time. Either part or total self build options give the potential for money saving.

Apart from the excellent ecological and structural engineering properties it is the construction method which makes the System unique. The two faces are held together by “plates” using dovetail joints…

Earthquake and Hurricanproof
Details

Earthquake and storm proof wall elements:
Extensive tests conducted at the Technical University of Karlsruhe tested the strength of the HIB elements in storms or earthquakes and concluded that the HIB-System fulfils all earthquake and storm resistant demands.


Structural-physical Behavior
Details

Tests simulated the effects of damp and varying temperature ranges on an HIB wall over the period of a year.
The results also took into account a changing climate.
The simulation shows the effects of damp and different temperature ranges on a HIB wall over a year. (unsteady U-values)
The unsteady U-value has an important meaning. The diagrams show the HIB element Ökoflex 300. There is no water condensation in the insulation.


Pre-designed houses by HIB
Details

Our pre-designed houses meet the requirements of the KFW – 60 standard and with a small amount of additional cost the KFW – 40 or passive house can be met.

After reading the benefits of using the HIB System decide which aspects you would like to utilise in creating your ideal home.
