It has beendemonstrated that it retains its load carrying ability ( resistance) after 1,000 freeze/thaw cycles carriedout in accordance with ASTM C-666, procedure A (see chartbelow). Procedure A involves alternating freeze/thaw cycleswith the test specimen totally submerged in water andexposed to freezing temperatures around the entire conditions are a factor in all parts of cycles testing helps to determine which insulationshave the correct physical characteristics to withstand thesevere site conditions of TO FREEZE THAW CYCLING:RECOMMENDED STRESS LIMITS, kPa (psi):Celfort 300 Foamular 400 Foamular 600 Foamular 1000 Min.

To determine the stress thatFoamular Insulation will experience, you will need to know the deflectionof the concrete slab (see Concrete Slab Design Formulas on page 7) aswell as the foundation modulus is a measure of how much a substrate deflects undera given load, expressed as inches deflection per inch of thickness or pci .The foundation modulus for various thicknesses of Foamular insulationcan be found in the table below:DETERMINING STRESSNote: Only Imperial values are used in design calculations in this section.
