what is the norm please guys ....I take it the screed should NEVER be above the TF bottom?

As long as you maintain the DPM then an 'infringement' here and there is permissible. Quite strange that your soleplate level is out by as much an inch .

Well ..the frame is spot on. But this involved a fair bit of "packing" on some of the kicker blocks.
 

The problem here is the Beam and Block and the Kicker blocks ...nasty laying of the support blocks for walls,

un-even bits of the concrete slurry at joints etc ...(sigh) - I must have used a barrow of concrete just filling in bits 

and gaps here and there and spent a few hours at least knocking bits off where it was too high with a bolster

I am just glad the groundwork is behind us ...caused us the worst headache EVER

 

I suppose to keep the floors essentially LEVEL ...I will just have to ask the screeder to top out to the shallowest at about 70mm thick...
..of course there will be areas then when the screed is an inch lower than the TF base (mainly at one external wall)...but ..what can we do
