Hi
As the topic states, I need to fill in a void where the old stairwell was on a 1st floor balcony. I have attached an image to clarify
The area is 3500 x 900, the existing slab is 280mm thick.
My question is how do 'connect' the new slab onto the old one.
I have thought that I could drill into the exiting slab on the one side and the brickwork of the house on the other, fix rebar either with a chemical anchor or an epoxy. Lay a welded reinforcing mesh and tie onto the fixed rebar, shutter the bottom with acrows etc and then pour the slab.
Would this work?
Any other ideas that anybody suggests.
Thanks
Marcus
