An inventory of what is included in each TUFF+ building kit

The kit will contain FRP I-beam floor joists to engineering specifications and topped with a solid 3/4″ (18mm) subfloor which is made from completely waterproof TUFF+ solid panels.

All kit walls are made from interlocked panels which are screwed together for a strong insulated surface.

Kit wall panels are 3/4″ (18mm) thick and there are two layers interlocked so that the standard wall frame is 1.5″ (36mm) thick.

Inside the wall panels are TUFF+ FRP studs which extend from the floor to the roofing beams.

All kit internal walls are made from iTUFF+ BG panels which are screwed into FRG studs.

Inside the external wall panels are TUFF+ FRP studs which extend from the floor to the roofing beams. These are what the internal walls are attached to. Internal walls are also waterproof and mold proof and can be painted.

Internal walls are constructed to plan and painted with white primer.

Individual coverings, specific colors or choice of paints, wallpapers etc is negotiated with the builder and is NOT included in the kit price.

Exterior, water and UV proof aluminum composite panels (ACP) are standard on all walls except as noted below for some shed and garage kits.

NOTE on specific TUFF+ kits (The garage and shed kits), some walls may NOT be specified as ACP.

There is an additional cost to extend all external walls to have ACP on each surface. 

This change MUST be done at the time of ordering the kit.

All kit walls include the windows and doors in the plan. 

TUFF+ standard roofing is engineer specified FRP I-beams bolted to the walls.

Over the beams solid TPAN18S 8×4′ panels are screwed as a solid, strong base.

On top of the panels are polycarbonate roofing sheets the length of the beam. This ensures 100% rain proofing, UV protected, which is long life with no rust.
