The question is, do we need underpinning. For this structure NO

The same question I asked, you answered there isn't.
Thanks.

Polystyrene is formed when styrene meets with pentane. So what is Styrene and what is Pentane? See the attached.

A house built with ICF will struggle to find insurance in the UK today after the Grenfell Tower fire in 2017. So many apartments in the UK cladded with polystyrene are practically worthless now. The flammable claddings were previously approved by the local authorities.

No. Polystyrene in homes in whatever form is not a wise decision.
So having one single material out of many defines a product origin...ok.
Not sure about the struggle about finding insurance ...they are not same composite....grenfel are acm made of polyethylene.....not polystyrene I'm sure you this...I wrote earlier they are not necessarily cheaper in terms of alternative to Pop

You remember the London apartment building fire? The polyethylene inside the ACM panels was cited as the “primary cause” of the spread of fire up the cladding. 1. All these synthetic materials from crude oil are flammable.2. It is believed that polystyrene can quickly spread fire and is not suitable for aluminum composite cladding.

Bolded 1: (synthetic materials) should it be considered for Residential building ?

2: Serious Area of concern.

Polystyrene or polyethylene all na the same ten and ten pence - petroleum by products.

Make we no debate this thing for too long. Please keep these products away from your building. Nothing beats the traditional bricks and mortar.

The reserve is the case. Residential buildings have lesser occupancy numbers than commercial buildings. So in case of any incident, the impact is relatively lower.
This is one of the reasons it is considered for residential but not commercial builds.

i saw somwhere Nigerite boards(those ones used for regular ceiling) were used and then screeded. Looks nice just like gypsum board.


Yes. Yes.

If done well, I think it's okay for low budget builds.

I do not know how it will look long term though.

Agreed.

Also my external poly ceiling fell off, but maybe due to faulty installation.

This is Bad PR for Ploystrene o..

Not really been a fan of it for building applications.

I used mine only on the exterior and I knew I would be changing it later.

Personally, with all available design elements poly should be the last consideration.

If I build a personal house again I would simply do a flat ceiling with no designs, make openings for window blind and doors and will use gypsum board. External eave will get wooden slats.

When screeded it's no longer low budget..
When you screed it the price is par with pop.
