A few DIY questions.

Hi BloodSyphon,

First of all, and this is a doozy, but does anyone know of any online resource that gets into the real technical aspects of how latex foam distributes weight, preferably in relation to its ILD rating? I have spent a good two or three hours looking for this information, and it’s nowhere to be found. If not that, could anyone help me understand how weight distributes through latex in a more general sense?

Latex re-distributes weight and reduces pressure in the same was as any other foam except different types of latex have different specs which would affect weight distribution differently (just like other foams have different weight distribution profiles).

Some of the information that you may find helpful (some of which are fairly technical which you wanted :)) includes this article, along with post #2 here and post #26 here and post #2 here and post #4 here, and post #6 here, and post #4 here.
