Question ID: 512065
I am looking for a comprehensive list of residential construction
materials (i.e. plywood, concrete, fiberglass insulation, etc?) that
provides information on each material such as:
?	Price (material price along with associated labor and equipment costs)
?	R-value or corresponding U-value
?	Sound Transmission class (STC)
?	Thermal Mass
?	Fire Rating
?	Embodied Energy
?	Regional availability
?	Recycle-ability
?	And any other comparative quality 

The list should contain all traditional residential construction
materials, however I am particularly interested in newer and more
environmentally friendly materials such as: insulated concrete forms
(ICFs), structural insulated panels (SIPs), aerated autoclaved
concrete blocks, and rammed earth to mention a few.

A corresponding list of construction assemblies (i.e. foundation
systems, exterior wall systems, etc?) constructed with the
aforementioned materials, along with the qualities of these
assemblies, would also be helpful.
