For those that have helped me or read my posts will know what im building.
Ive got the brickie coming Saturday to lay blocks from the foundations up to DPC Level, so what im doing is trying to plan in advance what I need.
What is the minimum thickness of hardcore and concrete I ca use for the slab, I dont want to overdo it as no heavy things like a car will ever be in it. It will only be used as storage for things like garden tools, DIY tools and bits and pieces left over from therefurbishment of the house.
I have loads of old bricks from when the chimney was removed, can these be used as hardcore? It would save getting a skip. Of course if they are laid down, the gaps between them will need to be filled to tighten them similar to block paving and compacted.
Any advice?
Thanks,
