Whats the best option for a floor to bring the garage up to level with the house.
The existing concrete slab sits about 150mm below the flooring level of the house.
I was planning to fix a plate to the wall and run joists and fill the the space with solid insulation slabs.
But the building regs I've seen for a "floating floor" state that you have to have 150mm between the slab and the bottom of the joists.
Does the addition of insulation mean that is no longer necessary?
 
Why not an insulated slab and screed, it sounds like you have enough space?
