Default Poured Concrete

That's interesting that they have gone to a poured concrete wall system. It must have less labor cost than the block. It should also be stronger still.

Does anyone know if the concrete wall is just furred out to accept the drywall or is there a separate stud wall built? Are the walls insulated?

I have a another question. I know that all TV homes are basically a concrete slab on grade. Is carpet or tile placed directly on the concrete or is a raised wood floor constructed on top?

Thanks all for the information.
