  1. All exterior walls are FoxBlock  and very similar to Quadlock. We used Quadlock for years but Fox is a better product for us. Vertical siding is a difficult to attach unless you use horizontal purlins. BIGGEST DOWN FALL OF ICF is sunshine and no foam can be left exposed to daylight.

  2. How would you do it if you were building it? That's how it should be put on paper. No easy way, cross section with details. Codes might want some engineering on existing roof system bearing the load of the new. If steel truss was in center of each new porch I think that would be structurally beneficial. I see you wood framed existing building, is that the plan?
