Basic question if I may. Anyone with an MBC-style raft will be able to answer in a flash I expect. With an insulated reinforced concrete raft foundation (200mm concrete over EPS), how does a conduit run to a kitchen island (or, for example, to floor sockets in the sitting area) for electrical cabling? Possible answer 1: does the conduit penetrate all the way through the raft and the EPS into the soil beneath, like a service penetration, and then re-emerge elsewhere in the build next to a wall? Possible answer 2: does the conduit penetrate laterally throughs the raft spanning from a wall to the island without penetrating the EPS? -
Debbie's been really patient. And the moment we had our windows in , I thought it might be time to start a conversation about how she wants her kitchen to be organised. We get surprisingly little talk-it-through-time and when we do it's clear that mental pictures aren't good enough. There's only so much Pintrest sharing that anyone can stand. So, out of the windows packing casing I made this. The box shape in the foreground is the island - which we hadn't planned for. In an effort to reduce the amount of yet more piss-poor planning, I'd like to plan the island in detail. I've made a start, but what the hell do I need to do next? She wants a hob, an in-island extractor, a fridge, somewhere to charge her command and control device (phone), somewhere to eat, a built in place for hot pans, and a bit of storage. All in 1200 square. Yeah, right.
