RE: [GBlist] Re: Big Green: Radiant Floor Heating
No,
The standard Dow extruded polystyrene (blue board) has sufficient
commpessive strenghth to easily withstand the weight of a 4" concrete floor
slab plus the live load of furniture and people on that slab without
compressing.
Cheers,
Ralph

Ok, this may not be a valid question but would the weight of concrete
compress the two inches of foam and then adding another two inches of foam
just cause it to settle enough to crack the slab?
