I know people who use it for roadbed without problems. Some though seem to think roadbed extends to the whole top surface of their layout and use it over plywood or (gasp) over the frame alone. These seem to be the people who have stability issues. I use cork on foam or plywood myself and it has been up for 10 years at places. I like foam as it is waterproof, lighter, easier to cut, cleaner to cut, and costs about the same. That being said the is more than one way to shoe a horse, so....I also have areas that are hardshell and they too are great, I have ceiling tile as "limestone cuts" and it's great, I have an are made of expanded foam and it's great. The only thing I don't have is homasote. FRED
