I am wondering if anyone in the more northern climes have tried using a grade beam on a crushed stone pad as a foundation?

Cam in a bit late to this but what about pouring a wider(say 3 feet to each side)slab over the existing floor...could drill a few holes and set rebar...decrease load per square foot...less invasive...
