Looking to purchase ICF Bracing 2nd hand but in good condition, prefer plum wall, Giraffe or reeachcraft but will consider others that are similar. I'm in New York.

When I built my home foundation using Polar Fusion ICF I used 2x4 agains the blocks with a 2x4 screwed on at 90 degrees with a diagonal going down to a construction spike. From the diagonal to the 90 degreee 2x4 I ran a level brace on that I layed a 2x12 for a scaffold and it all worked fine. When taken off and taken apart the 2x12's became joist and the 2x4's fecame interior wall studs.
