Folks,
I am getting strip foundations put in , in the next few weeks.
I do have an engineer to oversee all, however i would like to know for myself a few of the steps as I am a little confused.
Firestly let me explain, this will be strip with fill and a concrete slab poured. Then after the house is roofed there will be 100mm kinspan insulation and a 75 mm screed over this.
However my concern is that there are quite a few walls to build on the gnd floor, and these will be solid block walls.
Is it correct that all rising walls will be built to a certain level, and each space filled with compacted hardcore, then sand blinding and then DPM and radon layer, then concrete poured over this.
If this is the case then, how does one know where to continue the wall from. I do know that the measurements should point out wher the rising walls are.
Or is DPM put in in each room up to the rising wall.
Difficult for me to explain.
Any input on the process would be appreciated.
