Figure 4-15. Slab-on-grade with Integral Grade Beam and Exterior and Slab Insulation

Figure 4-15 illustrates a slab-on-grade with an integral grade beam. The grade beam sits on a footing, which provides support for the brick cladding. Foam insulation runs on the inside face of the airspace behind the brick. The foundation insulation is in the same plane, and is applied to the slab edge below the termite shield down to the footing.
