The other kind does expand a lot.
Large gap spray foam cans are really only good for an inch or two of space. It will also not grab well on the bottom of a horizontal surface.

You could give one of these a try. https://www.lowes.ca/foam-insulation..._g1377661.htmlYou might need two. I used these a few times at my home with mixed results. One did a lot more area/thickness than the others and one was really runny. Timing, temperature, shake and pressure on the nozzle seemed to make big differences on the expansion and coverage.

The other option is to fill it with layers of rigid and you could use the large gap cans around the edges of the rigid.
