There isn't a recommendation. The depth has to be just enough.

Hilliard Tanner designed ours. His careful engagement with our site conditions enabled us to save about 17 thousand pounds on the costs associated with piling. He need not have pointed out that the piling system suggested by the geophysical surveyor were an expensive way of supporting the raft. In addition his colleague Nick Bailey helped us with steels and glulams. A very good partnership.

One of the benefits of deep glacial till, covered by a meter of MOT1. Sits there like a brick outhouse.

I have a quadriplegic mate. No question of not catering for him on our build. Got as much fizz, vim and vigour in him as anyone I know. You can reach out and warm your hands on his enthusiasm.... He's taught me so much about being inclusive. It's essential. Take pride in building your ramps: you might need one sooner than you think.

Overthinking on my behalf is allowed . ? Fanx. "Trench compactor" = wife? Wassa chances of that then?

Exactly. Know-Nowt strikes again: or at least I now know, that I know just enough to realise that I'm a danger to shipping on the site. Time for a chat with the BCO.

Bang on, well observed. No. It is what it is. A friggin nightmare. But Hell, I'm learning fast. After four years I've learned to take a joke.

Where did I find it? Wavin brochure! Thing is , the main drop ( 2meters vertical) occurs over about 2 meters horizontally ... maybe a bit more. Which is 1:1 innit? Backdrop with a rest bend?

I wish I could sort this problem out with one of Billy Connelly's Jobbie Wheechas: but "ah caanee, hen." (tr. from the Scottish : I couldn't possibly do that, dwaahling). Look at this. The flow is from the I/C at the back towards the viewer standing next to the 'top-of-the-drop' - the white topped shuttering. From there it goes .... off down to the digester ( green thing at the back) - about 8 meters. The drop's not far off 2 meters, from top invert to bottom invert. The banking in which it sits is no more than 40 degrees Backdrop? OR 45 degree Helter Skelter as @epsilonGreedy would put it?

You damn-well did. One word from you and I do as I like. Still, got the T shirt now......

Its the D4 bottle dribbles that gets ya, oh the dribbles, they get everywhere! Made my life a misery they did. Even got some in my hair.

Thanks for your post. A big help to me. I have an exactly similar problem to solve in terms of the levels. ?

I went for screws and D4. Didn't take long once I got an efficient work flow. (146 m sq)

But that doesn't work for everyone in contact with C-19 does it? I'm thinking of the use cases when a member of the extended family drops by - or a short-stay guest - and wants to use the downstairs wetroom. They are going to feel no compulsion (as I currently do, @Jeremy Harris) to do a quick rinse round the tap they have just used a la - " After using the bathroom, leave it a bit cleaner than you found it." So taps and doors of the wetroom only need to be made very easy to keep clean. Preferrably nearly zero effort, and taking a few seconds Frankly, some leaver nudge taps fit the bill exactly as required. Nearly there about the doors design. Thanks @Ferdinand

I'm taking your comment as a question. Yes, please. A simple link to an online resource which we can read: one which shows a refereed article documenting the ... please. Its important that members have the chance to read source material for themselves so they can make up their own minds about the accuracy of generalised statements such as the one given above '... Latest research shows ...'

I wasn't thinking of anything other than ... (as in the OP above)... taps and door handles. Lever handle taps seem to me to be a cheap, easy way of assisting slightly better hand hygene for everyone in the house - what @Ferdinand calls Never heard of that phrase until today F, so thanks very much. Coupled with this idea - one I'd not thought of either .... and I'm getting somewhere. How do we solve the held-open door in the case of a downstairs wetroom? Is there suchj a thing as hold-door-opener which releases its grip after a while?

.... because

Well, simple lever taps cost no more than ordinary ones....

Yes. I hated it. The difference between us is that I noticed that level of error- and worse - much too late. And sacked the builder far later than I should. C19 means that tomorrow, Salamander Cottage is hosting a meeting of tradespeople to do our wetroom. (Ill wind that blows nobody any good) Boy oh boy am I going to be on top of every level , plumb line, fitting, grout line, door jamb, cost heading, H&S issue. University of Hard Nocks is a good teacher.

I'm thinking of things like sensor taps, or elbow tap control taps and changing door handle design - especially in the loos. At our place we have just enough time to make the changes in design. Worth it?

A reference to an article about low-dose RF in a refereed journal would help us decide for ourselves; please.

A bit of local skip Wombling is in order then.... where's that skip Gary?

Here's too much about Durisol.

You, me and quite a few. Mind you, we Northerners should all go round to the site where Gary's working, break in, load up and strain the suspension on our clapped out vehicles.

Ours is going up from outside and will be posted through the bedrom window using a material handler - I hope. Thank God I haven't had time to fit the julliette balcony yet - in @ProDave's words, both my first floor doors are currently suicide doors
