Howdy I'm Colby and I'm studying Building Construction Technology at
Texas State Technical University. I'm working on a project for class.
Anyways the project is that we are fixing a rotten floor system in an
existing house. We have chosen to take out the previous lumber
components of the old floor because extensive moisture damage took
place. Our plan for fixing this is to pour concrete into the existing shell of
the foundation and basically make it into a solid slab foundation. Part of my
assignment is to estimate the cost and the materials needed to do this
work on this house. I'm doing fine but my teacher told me I needed to
factor into my costs "Poly" expenses. I believe this poly is like the Tyvek
house wrap but I wondering if I need something different for concrete. Am
I right in thinking the type of poly my teacher was thinking of is like the
Tyvek House Wrap? :icon_confused: I'm also unsure where to purchase this poly and
what type I will need. Any help would be greatly helpful.
Thank you
Sincerely
Colby
