As above, it’s not 100A total load, 100A each phase, I think it’s still 80A fuse, just not clearly written. fast car chargers need 3 phase supplies but wont be at full load all the time so shouldn’t be a problem

Good morning and welcome, loads of info to be found in past threads and topics.

I didn’t see the post until now, the 4 corner screws are for jacking the base to plumb and account for uneven surface. You generally use a single bolt in middle of the base plate (for horizontal or overhead drilling) or stand on it for slab work. many bases have a rubber ‘skirt’ to seal using a vacuum pump but bolting or standing on it are the usual methods

A lot of timber laminating is done with Phenol resorcinol formaldehyde (hopefully the spelling/memory isn’t too far away). Been quite a few years since I’ve been involved with glulam structures

Can’t see any reason to involve BC assuming straightforward replacement. If you were enlarging openings or changing fire doors then yes.

If you do need a cherry picker, let me know and I can point you in the right direction and make sure you aren’t getting over charged

Hi and welcome, Hope Valley is a gorgeous setting

Hello and welcome.

I wouldn’t bother with the textile, hardcore (bricks, rubble concrete etc.) well compacted and then cap off with MOT.

Good practice to noggin any end joints that do not drop on a joist, any middle ones are supported on both sides so don’t need anything

Couple of recent break ins near us on industrial units .. battery nibbler and recipro saw straight through the cladding

Hello and welcome, as above, look at permitted development first.

Are you intending having pedestal basin or wall mounted/floating basin with concealed cistern etc. in a false wall?

Assuming you won’t be running large vehicles over the patio, MOT straight over, compacted and you will be ok. Slabs over the top are likely to cause more damage as they settle.

I would go 30mm thin wall, 1.5mm ish for stiffness. You won’t be having high compressive or tension loads so no need for thicker wall thicknesses.

Is a wago and tape “text book” ? No! But it is insulated and protected from accidental touching of conductors so no different from a cable. Looping back against the cable and taping looks neater.

Has to be a plumbing issue, tank overflow, pipe connection loose, pipe chewed by rodents?

Cheers John, I asked vendor to leave the heating etc on and was then told the Honeywell controller is too complicated so they have been doing both heating and hot water manually. looking at the photo it’s amazing what can be missed, yes it looks like all the uninsulated pipework is in a cold space 🙈. give me foundations and structures anyday over faffing around with heating controls lol.

Still haven’t found a suitable plot to build new so bought a small farm in the meantime 🤔. Nicely refurb bungalow so not going to do anything too drastic but changes need to be made so looking for suggestions. part electric UFH, not water unfortunately. Rest has rads. Boiler is oil fired. Hot water tank as photo. short term, need now :- need new controller for hot water and rads (oil boiler), need programmable immersion controller, To decide over next few month :- have loads of south facing roof space to add PV loads of outdoor space for ASHP etc. Would love some ideas and suggestions from you guys as heating and controls etc. is not my forte.

The Mammotion Luba (few variants, 2WD, 4WD and area covered) are excellent, I don’t have one but trying to justify getting one!

Good morning and welcome, I would be raising it slightly above the lawn, stops turf migrating onto the patio area and helps drainage

Is the carcass side panel distorting? The hinges could well be fine but the load may be twisting the side panel into an ‘S’ shape moving the top hinge towards the door and the lower one away so the door effectively sags but the panel may return to vertical when the door is opened.

Any covered area attached to a garden building is included in the building floor area, I’m guessing this is to prevent 36sq/m garages having another covered space at the side.

Beam can be above joists to keep a clean soffit / ceiling line, it does make connections somewhat more complicated tho. padstone looks ok, a little off centre but I have seen much worse. back to the underslung joists, what is above them? Is it just roof space or a usable room? Because this affects the loadings

It’s a garden shed, as long as it’s not habitable then no regs or approvals apart from dimensions (floor area and eaves height) so you can just get on with it.
