EPS 15 Geofoam was used to raise the floor height on this building in Metairie, LA 70006. The EPS15 geofoam has a compression strength of 10.6 psi @ 1% deformation making it plenty strong enough for residential and light commercial applications like this one. The material weighs less than 1 pound per cubic foot compared to concrete’s 150 pounds per cubic foot.
