    Default Thermacell foam blocks

    Well we have finally bought a house and made the long move from Chicago to Upper Ferntree Gully (via Wollongong)
    Now comes the fun bit of renovating and building a workshop. I am interested in using the Thermacell foam blocks for the workshop and the home extensions. Has anyone worked with or had any experiences with this product? The workshop is going to be 10x6.5m with a slab floor with timber laid over that. the house extensions are going to be 3 story (inc walk-in basement) 8x8m.

    Thanks Andrew

    I am new today, so please be patient with me. I think that This Old House might have done something with these a year or two back. Check out their website.

    Yes Bleedin Thumb
    They are the styrene type blocks that clip together a bit like leggo and then you pour concrete into them, creating a reinforced in-place formwork wall.
