Rough Foundation Installation

General guidelines for installing EnergyEdge^® on a rough foundation

Energy Edge rails can be used as the concrete form with a kicker system (see picture to the left and middle below) or as a form liner (see lower right picture). Energy Edge braces should be used as rail connectors, occur within 18" of the joint or corner and 36" on-center thereafter. Rails should be laid corners first and straight runs last- minimizing cutting to the middle rail completing the run. Align, level and mechanically secure the rails to the kickers with screws on the exterior face of the rail. After the concrete has been poured and finished, screws may by backed out of the rails and kickers removed. Energy Edge products remain in place, leaving a finished and insulated edge.
