I need a copy of ASCE 32-01, so I am hoping maybe some of you all who has it can help with this as this is a one time deal for me.
I have went through all the calculations and all that is required for this shallow foundation I am designing (for myself) is a piece of extruded board insulation with a value of R3. Everything that I have seen shows this placed on the outside of the foundation wall. (Granted in an unheated space you place it on the inside under the floor).
I would prefer to place it on the inside of the wall, doing this would eliminate having to finish it and would still remove any chance of a cold bridge.
Below the yellow is what I would like to propose, and the red is all that is required by code.
Thoughts, comments?
