Concrete Sub Floor Drying Time

Recommended Posts

Hi All,

 

We should be pouring the 100mm concrete sub floor this week, how long should we wait before laying the 120mm PIR boards?

 

I have read / been told anything from 3 days to 2 weeks.

 

Thanks, Wozza.

What’s the rush ..?

 

Do you mean the oversite or are you going to put PIR then another layer of concrete ..? 

 

Should have explained better.

 

Floor make up is as follows

 

50/55mm Cemfloor liquid screed (with UFH)

DPM

120mm PIR insulation board

100mm Concrete subfloor (almost at this stage)

DPM

Sand binding

Type 1 / hardcore

 

We want to get it done as soon as possible - there is no immediate rush and the area is weather tight (apart from, a few draughts from around the boards where the windows will be fitted).

 

Thanks,

 

Wozza.
