In the video, the insulation was put on top of the vapor barrier. I was told that's not correct. The process steps involve compacted dirt, then 3/4 stone compacted, then insulation, then 6-10 mil vapor barrier, and then concrete (with fiberglass or metal wire). You want the weight of the concrete pushing down on the vapor barrier holding the insulation in place. With your method, there is the risk that some insulation could rise up through the concrete.

Does it take compressive strength or do we need to add reinforcement, am interested to know what happened next.

so why not put the foam on top of the concrete where it will prevent the need to heat and cool it? the foam is so sturdy and plywood on top of it would make it just a firm as plywood on concrete

plastic sheeting on top of foam would guarantee foam would not float up during pour.

@Joshua79C6 жыл бұрын
XPS is more per sheet seeing as its extruded and not expanded with steam like EPS. Plus EPS has a much better bond to the concrete than smooth XPS
@D.A.jadhav6 жыл бұрын

@Joshua79C6 жыл бұрын
XPS or Extruded Polystyrene, not the same as EPS or Expanded polystyrene which offer a much better insulation value and bond to concrete and less costly than XPS with its lower R or U insulation value.

Doesn't the vapor barrier go on top of the rigid insulation?
@augustreil7 жыл бұрын
Nope, you need to stop the moisture as close to the bottom as possible, in this case was sand or compacted crushed stone.

Those that do the vapor barrier over the insulation ARE asking for trouble and added costs down the road when the foam starts to deteriorate and floor starts to show signs of failure.
@markkennedy51708 жыл бұрын
So are these guys showing how best to have wet insulation? Vapor barriers always go over foam and under concrete. well, apparently not always.
@marko63947 жыл бұрын
Wouldn't you want the vapor barrier under the foam to prevent ground water from contacting the foam, or is it more for water vapor condensing between a cold surface and a warm one? Vapor barrier for walls typically faces inward, so following that logic, it makes sense to have the barrier on top of the foam, like you said. Can you elaborate?
@marko63947 жыл бұрын
If you tape the seams of the foam board and place a barrier over top, won't the tape deteriorate over time due to ground moisture? Or is this a non-issue?
@augustreil7 жыл бұрын
Mark, They 100% did it the right way. By doing it your way, the moisture could get up and into the foam. The vapor barrier being against the sand, etc first will stop it.
