[QUOTE="Traxion, post: 297797, member: 983"] I would use rebar no matter what. I don't feel that fiber does anything close to what rebar does. I think there are applications for it but it does not replace rebar in it. I also agree with the finishing aspect, it makes it more difficult and is visible. Assuming you are burning the floor out with a power trowel, I certainly would not use it. Make sure you insulate your slab properly from the outside. People seem to forget all the heat loss they can get from the outside. 2" foam up the exterior of the slab/thick edge is needed. You'll have to get a flashing bent for the top of it but it keeps a lot of loss from occurring. [/QUOTE]
