Blown Insulation Specific Weight
Blown Insulation Specific Weight
(OP)
Most attics around here (Midwest USA) are insulated with blown cellulose (I believe) insulation. Has anyone come across an average density or average thickness/weight used in homes?
Or how about the insulation that has a 'paper' side and the other-side has the fiberglass insulation.
Thanks!

Fiberglass batt insulation is about 1/2 those values.

Maybe that's not a legitimate design condition, but it does happen.

After Wilma, I intend to ride out future hurricanes in some other state, say Idaho.
