Each to their own but.......I’ve never understood the concept of a holiday that involves ‘cold’ and ‘exercise’. Nuts! :D

Yeah +1, my missus keeps batting on about skiing. My idea of a holiday is a beach in Greece where I can pretend I'm reading a book through dark glasses whilst watching German girls playing topless volleyball in the surf...

 

Skiing though...there are some proper weirdos about! )

I’m shuttering off a 6’ square around it so I can screed the falls in after. I’ll cover the pipes with the concrete but try to leave at least 2” for the screed.

Maybe a good idea to have some 300mm tie bars drilled at angles ( dovetailed ) poking through the shuttering to tie the two slabs together after the initial pour, or you'll be left with a small floating section which won't be great.

I was just going to SBR the crap out of it. But that might not be a bad idea. Iv got some mesh left over I can cut up for the job.

Well that Was a fun job. 500 of the little buggers every 400mm. (At least there will be when I get the utility done as well. But I’m tired and need a shower now)

And just in case you wondered how I was going to hold it in the little chairs where it is trying to lift in some places I’m useing these. Technically they are for holding Teram down but they seem to be working well for this.
