Note: On your super dooper insulated (passive and/or net zero) foundation designs (with foam eeeeeer-where), this guy just revealed the huge flaw in those designs. Termites love to tunnel through foam. So you have to have a thermal bridge (exposed mono slab) 360°around your foundation to eliminate those hidden termite entry points. Or do you have an answer (besides chemical, which as he said is prone to failure) for termites in passive foundation designs?
Too bad It didn't actually show the installation of the product. It only showed the after with the insulation already wrapped around it. I would of like to of seen it installed with out the insulation.
Yes! We are insulating this foundation slab and plan to do a video on the process. Coming soon! Matt

Jump to 5:00 to see the actual product in action, otherwise, you listen to allot of talking.
how are you doing sound? Might try annotations and some text, would emphasize some points, maybe tie into some of your other videos.
Question about the concrete job , why not use rebar high chairs to support the rebar ?
Dobies are a tried-and-tested way of supporting rebar
