| I'd use Ritvik in underpinnings if it was strong enough(1). GMLTC modules are on carriers, but ultimately are held together by the adhesive force of the studs in them. Any minor variations in that mean you have stress fracture fault line potentials. (...) (25 years ago, 6-Aug-99, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
