Freshly-formed hard-foam plastic slabs which are preferably susceptible to maximum shrinkage are used as a base for insulating masonry structures. Each slab is grooved and has raised portions (lands) between adjacent grooves. Fastening elements (pins) are dispersed over the grooved surface to secure a reinforcing web to the slab and maintain it at a substantially uniform distance therefrom. To insulate a masonry structure, such as a wall, the face of the wall is covered with such slabs, which are secured to the wall. The exposed surface of the slabs is then plastered with a material which permits the passage of water vapor therethrough. The applied coating of plaster fills the grooves on the slab surface and is thick enough to cover the reinforcing web. A suitable finish coat of plaster or paint is optionally placed over the initial reinforced plaster coating.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION What is claimed is: 1.
A hard-foam plastic slab having two major surfaces, one of which has: (a) plural grooves and lands between adjacent grooves, (b) fastening elements which have a base and a head end and also serve as spacers, which are secured at their bases to the lands and are dispersed at intervals over the one surface, and (c) a reinforcing web affixed to the head ends of the fastening elements at a substantially uniform distance from said one surface.
2.
A slab according to claim 1 having a follow-up shrinkage of more than 1 millimeter per meter.
3.
A slab according to claim 2 wherein the grooves are milled or otherwise cut into the one surface.
4.
A slab according to claim 3 which is made of polystyrene.
5.
A slab according to claim 3 wherein the fastening elements consist of synthetic-plastic-component-rich mortar or other adhesive.
6.
A slab according to claim 3 wherein the reinforcing web is a glass-fiber fabric.
7.
A slab according to claim 6 wherein the fastening elements space the glass-fiber fabric at an interval of from 1 to 2 millimeters from the one surface.
8.
A slab according to claim 7 wherein the grooves are undercut in dove-tail fashion.
9.
A slab according to claim 7 wherein the hard-foam plastic slab is of band-foamed material.
10.
A slab according to claim 7 having rabbetted ends for fitting with adjacent similar slabs.
11.
A slab according to claim 7 wherein the fastening elements are composed of mortar having the following composition: Cement: 10 to 80 percent by weight Sand, quartz or other mineral filler: 0 to 80 percent by weight Synthetic plastic: 2 to 50 percent by weight.
12.
A slab according to claim 11 wherein the mortar has the following composition: Cement: 40 to 60 percent by weight Sand, quartz or other mineral filler: 30 to 50 percent by weight Synthetic plastic: 5 to 25 percent by weight.
13.
A slab according to claim 3 in combination with a layer of synthetic-plastic-component-poor plaster or mortar which permits the passage of water vapor therethrough, the layer being in contact with the one surface, filling the grooves and covering the reinforcing web
