Really just word of mouth and a lot of research about them mainly on the net, I think they may be overrated. I could be wrong but I think what we are doing is great. We are going 24" deep on all the outside walls and 16" on the inside. We have 10"x4' holes every 6' on inside and outside walls with rebar in them. What I have learned about the 2 differant slabs is that either way, there is potential for your slab to crack. I'm taking my chances.
