HOW DOES FOAM STRENGTHEN HOMES?

Imposing lateral forces on the walls of the homes are created from gusts and high winds from storms. A "shearing force" can be generated by the lateral forces that distort the walls. To be able to withstand these forces and loads, a home's walls are required by building codes to be designed in a certain way. Walls are nevertheless sometimes built to the minimum standards, so sounds of creaking and shaking that are created through movement or during high winds can often be heard.

To reinforce both the studs and the exterior sheathing inside the walls, higher density closed-cell spray foam is recommended, for it adheres fully to both. There will be less wall movement due to vibration, wind, and occupant activity with the added rigidity that closed-cell spray foam provides. "Racking events" such as hurricanes or high wind situations can also be avoided with closed-cell SPF because your walls will have greater resistance than what is required by building code.
