Rippleside Living: insulated precast panels for Geelong home
The Rippleside Living project in Geelong showcases the use of insulated precast concrete panels in creating a modern, energy-efficient home. This project highlights the advantages of using insulated precast panels to achieve superior thermal performance, durability, and a sleek architectural design.
Why insulated precast panels?
Insulated precast concrete panels were chosen for the Rippleside Living project for several key reasons:
- Enhanced energy efficiency: The insulation embedded within the precast panels provides excellent thermal performance, reducing the need for additional heating and cooling, and leading to lower energy costs.
- Durability: Precast concrete offers long-lasting strength and resistance to weather conditions, ensuring the home remains structurally sound and low-maintenance over time.
- Design flexibility: The use of precast panels allowed for precise control over the design, resulting in a clean, contemporary aesthetic that complements the urban setting of Geelong.
- Speed of construction: The panels were prefabricated off-site and installed quickly, reducing the overall construction timeline and minimising on-site disruptions.
Insulated precast panels in action
The Rippleside Living project utilised insulated precast panels to form the home’s exterior walls, providing both structural integrity and superior insulation. The panels were customised to fit the specific design requirements of the project, offering a seamless blend of form and function. The result is a home that not only meets modern energy standards but also delivers a striking visual impact.
Outcome
The use of insulated precast panels in the Rippleside Living project resulted in a highly efficient and visually appealing home. This project demonstrates how insulated precast concrete can be used to create a comfortable living environment while achieving significant energy savings and long-term durability.
