Do you mind me asking who was your PCA & Plan Presenter? Also who are you using for your inspections during the build process they seem very thorough and we'll be needing the same for our build in the Hills hopefully starting before the end of the year.

Hi Jimb00 I have messaged you what you were asking for. Good luck with your construction. Cheers.

A bit worry to me though several of my friends told me the same done on their site when they built their house. Is it something industry standard to use foam under concrete nowadays? ! I came into this thread because we very nearly built a Benham 33 … … but I see nobody's answered this? The answer is that the foam isn't intended to support any weight at all. It's got two functions; it holds the concrete into it's "waffle" shape while the concrete sets, and it also acts as insulation underneath (although I don't quite understand the insulation part to be honest - I thought the soil was very good insulation by itself). Once the concrete has set, if you could get to it you could pretty-much take the foam away. And yeah, it's extremely common, most houses in Sydney are built this way. I think there are certain soil conditions where they don't; but with most Sydney soil conditions & locations, if the house is being built on a slab which is sitting on the ground then they're probably building it with these waffle pods.
