Hi,
I have an old shed that used to be a garage. It has a concrete base and the walls are made of concrete sheets (500mm x 1000mm approx) bolted together on 3 walls, with the 4th wall being a wooden garage door (so you could get the car in )
This wooden door has now rotted away to nothing and I want to build up a solid wall instead (there's now no longer any car access to use it as a garage).
I've got 440mm blocks and am all ready to go with a single skin 100m wall but unsure how to join the new wall to the existing structure and floor (so I don't just build a big solid wall that can be pushed/wobble over! ).
Do I need to bolt-join the new wall to the walls and floor etc. or am I worrying about nothing?
Thanks
