Block and Beam level conundrum

Featured Replies

My SE just gave me a generic cut & paste footings details, so I thought I'd try and design it to new regs. However what a nightmare to match it to existing levels. I was digging a test hole today in 30c and it just got me thinking about it and I needed a rest.

I could make the PIR 150mm but what do I do about the 75mm gap under the slip brick? I guess I don't even need the foundation block, could subsitute for 2 blocks or remove all together?

what does the green line indicate ?

 

Ah well spotted @Canski slight error there on my part. That is the existing FFL (22mm chipboard on a suspended floor). Have redrawn (bit more to gain now)

I've managed to get it much close by using 140mm insulation, I'm still 10mm out on the inside wall.

just get the bricklayers to bump up the course of block under the beam 10mm and block then you have it.
