Stronger Homes for Stronger Communities

RBS’s innovative, efficient building system provides the security homeowners, builders, and developers seek when investing in community, without compromising on location or design.

a turn-key home building system.

RBS is a complete program of cutting edge materials. Combined with proven means and methods, a near-site wall building process allows multiple facades to be assembled with ecient concrete pours and moisture sealing technology to eliminate risk of mold damage. The system can be licensed as a kit that includes materials, methodology, and alliances to simplify the building process. RBS hand-selects only the most qualified builders and developers to utilize the system and provides a detailed certification process to ensure the highest quality of products.

PROOF POINTS

proof points

STRONGER

The sandwich wall assembly of an interior steel frame, rigid insulation, reinforced concrete exterior of an RBS home is engineered to withstand 200 MPH (258 w/ factor of safety) winds. The roof is reinforced concrete on a steel deck. Traditional homes, to meet code, are constructed of wood for 130 MPH wind. Even fortified wood custom homes are challenged to withstand higher MPH forces, often peaking at 160 MPH. Wood molds and mildews and is not resistant to insects. Wood frames need exterior cladding, such as siding or plaster, that require maintenance, and create vulnerabilities to water penetration.

INSURABLE

RBS homes are pre-qualified by Lloyds of London for comprehensive private insurance at more competitive rates for better coverage. Like nationalized healthcare, with allowance of pre-existing conditions, public insurance is great, but not sustainable. Therefore, the healthcare premiums, for more restrictive coverages, continue to become more and more expensive. But, if there is a private option for the fit/healthy minded and acting individual, with better coverage at competitive rates, this would allow the public system to distill down their exposure and to focus and find the solution for the more needy. The RBS homeowner will still pay the increased taxes for the subsidies for the public insurance, but this is oset by lower cost/ better coverage, insurance. It’s the peace of mind proposition.

BETTER BUILT

RBS wall frames are built in a controlled environment; weather/variability of trades are not factors. The combination of high temperature and high humidity, or Heat Index makes for challenging working conditions. High temperatures, high humidity, high winds and thunderstorms are common in the targeted low-lying coastal zones. Furthermore, winters are typically wetter and colder so building the framed walls in a controlled environment avoids the trials and tribulations of the variable weather.

EFFICIENT

Without upgrading, the base RBS home has a HERZ (Home Energy Rating System) of 48. A code compliant home built to today’s standards is a 100; making the base RBS home is 52% more energy efficient.

SAFE & SECURE

Do not wait to find out if the storm will change course, respond to early evacuation alerts, and get out of the potential harm’s way, but know the home will be there upon your return.

LEAD BY EXAMPLE

Act and live responsibly when it comes to future generations; tax payers foot the bill for emergency relief and rebuilding during and after a storm event. Be proactive versus reactive, build resilient, and by walking your talk, you become a person others want to follow.

SUSTAINABLE

RBS homes are pre-qualified LEED Platinum; the highest level of Green certification. The Green benefiting aspects are addressing indoor air quality, durability, conservation of resources. Traditional homes are not LEED Platinum; building Green is elected, not mandated. Lively Beach, Cluster 3, is on path to be the first certified multi-family project to receive Passive House in the state of Texas!

RESISTANT

RBS homes are resistant to mold, mildew and or termites. Using the RBS branded special very low permeability concrete design mix that will restrict the migration of moisture, the the closed cell rigid insulation is not permeable, and the drywall is mold and mildew resistant. We also employ a mechanical system that is ductless which is not prone to the collection of airborne dust particles, a separate dehumidifier that controls the indoor moisture (every time you open a door and or window, moisture is introduced) and ventilation for air exchanges and balancing pressures.

PRIDE OF OWNERSHIP

Each RBS home will be professionally designed by a top architect, and built to enhance the value of the neighborhood/community.

FLEXIBILITY

The exterior structure is the fortification, the interior walls can change as your needs change. What’s your aesthetic style? We can help you achieve your vision and maintain excellent safety and durability standards.

what this means for ...

builders.

RBS’s complete building solution is an engineered, proven method of constructing faster, with less dependency on outside labor and resources with a lower probability of construction defects. Eliminating variables of construction, this complete system is proven to protect structures from natural catastrophe. If opted, the structural shell can be constructed by an RBS licensee, and balanced with a traditional interior build-out, performed by others.

developers.

RBS helps developers earn the entitlements and approvals they need to build strong structures eiciently. This fortified building system does not sacrifice design in the presence of strength. The internal structure and method of construction is core, so builders and architects can apply any unique elevation to suit their aesthetic. Developers are able to be RBS licencees, or can engage as a member of the Team. An RBS home can be built in areas prohibited to traditional construction, thus creating development opportunities for challenged properties.

home owners.

As one of the most important investments you can make for your family, a home must be reliable. RBS structures are designed with homeowners in mind. They ensure a lower cost of ownership due to comprehensive insurance coverage at lower rates. RBS homes require less maintenance and lower risk of structural defects such as water damage and mold. Finally, these sustainable structures are recognized for their exceptional energy eiciency and air quality. They protect people from the elements while safeguarding the environment.

communities.

In communities that have been ravaged by natural disasters, people know how important it is to rebuild stronger and smarter. RBS provides solutions to keep communities functioning and thriving in the wake of catastrophe. Proven to withstand wind up to 250 mph, RBS structures are changing the course of coastal development.

alliances.

RBS has already formed strategic partnerships with many of the industry leaders in manufacturing and design, and the list will continue to grow. RBS success, through collective and collaborative eorts in sharing expertise, through co-branding, will benefit all parties.
