36、l Conference of Building Officials Evaluation Report No. 1347.F2471082Concrete consisting of pre-formed foam is added to a cement/sand grout in a ready-mix truck to produce a thick pouredlightweight cellular concrete underlayment that is pumped ontothe subfloor.39.5 Where the thick poured lightweigh

37、t cellular concreteunderlayment widths change at alcoves and other similarrecesses, it shall be reinforced with a 12 in. wide (305 mm) by16 in. long (406 mm) strip of 4 by 4 in.
