chemical fixings

[maltaron]

Possibly been answered elsewhere but a search doesn't help. How many 300ml tubes of resin do I need for 20 12mm studs into concrete blocks?

TIA

Depends how big you make the holes.

 

[maltaron]

holes will be 14mm

How long are the studs?

 

[maltaron]

Studs will be 75mm into wall.

Assuming holes are 14Ø x 75mm long

1 hole = 11.5cm³

∴ 20 holes = 230cm³

1 x 300ml tube = 300cm³

So one tube is required.

Thanks Freddy, I assume that you have guessed its for timbers to hold the awning.

 

[freddiemercurystwin]

You still not done that yet?

How's things with you, keeping well?

 

[maltaron]

Keeping well, left the awning until the block work is well and truly solid, fixing two 200 x 50 oak timbers vertically up the wall so no strain on the top blocks. Trust you and the family are keeping well.

Glad to hear it, we're all well thanks two boys instead of the one now and have been in sunny Teignmouth for the last couple of years!
