RENCO MCFR is a state-of-the-art structural building system comprised of interlocking composite building units of various types and sizes of blocks, columns, beams, joists, headers, decking, connectors, etc. These products are all adhesively joined (chemically bonded) to form monolithic structures. The RENCO Structural Building System has been tested, analyzed and evaluated in ANSI certified laboratories to ASTM standards for material and physical characteristics, structural performance, fire resistance and environmental resistance.

A thorough evaluation, IAPMO-UES approved and published our Evaluation Report 508 permitting the use of RENCO Structural Building System under the International Building Code (IBC) and in Florida’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone.

The RENCO Structural Building System can currently be used in the design and construction of construction types VA and VB (structures up to 5 stories) in Seismic Design Categories A and B. Through continued research and development, expanded approvals are in process, to include use of our system in Seismic Design Categories C, D and E by Q2 2023.
