A thermal break system for cast-in-place concrete slabs is provided that includes a load-bearing structural foam barrier designed to separate an interior portion of concrete slab from an exterior portion of concrete slab. The thermal break system includes a plurality of reinforcing tension bars holes passing through the insulating barrier. In addition, reinforcing shear bars are inserted through the insulating foam at a non-horizontal angle and bent such that the shear bars are horizontal on either side of the insulating barrier.
