sketchup drawing... does it work? (Noth sure if the pillars are thick enough two blocks of 140mm? Expansion gap to the left of every second pillar.

What software did you use to create that image? Looks like your suggesting 11 pillars an 5 blocks between with one end being 6 blocks?

Also, I was looking to build the pillars using the method in this video: But that wont work as the blocks I am looking to use will be 140 wide, not 100 wide (so two blocks on the side will end up 300 not 200!) Block size I am looking to use are: 440x215x140 What other methods would work for...

No plans for rebar/re-enforcement, the wall will be behind a gate so not expecting many people of that nature to give it a go. Most likely damage would be from a vehicle who has mis-directed their aim, in which case i'd guess i would want the wall to fall away in that section rather then leave...

Thanks @PaulJR So if i go with 6 pillars total, 9 blocks between pillars, and have expansion on each pillar on both sides? or tie one side solid and let the other side expand? So I would have: Pillar|9 blocks + mortar| expansion| pillar| 9 blocks + mortar| expansion| pillar| 9 blocks +...

Thanks, so if do: Pillar|2.25m block| Pilar| 2.25m block | expansion|Pillar|2.25m block| Pilar| 2.25m block | expansion|Pillar|2.25m block| Pilar| 2.25m block | expansion and so on? Where the blocks on the left of the expansion are then not tied to the pillar on the right of the expansion or are...

Hi All, I am looking to have a 28m block wall built in place of fences (some of which are now neatly stacked up). I'm trying to understand the block layout, number of pillars and expansion joints that various people have told me I need! So the wall will be 2m high, 28m long, and stepping...

Thanks woody, To clarify, the garden slopes down from front to rear by approx 1 meter over approx 30m length. I'm looking to have each 3m section stepped to keep it approx 2m following the ground, - the intention will be in the future to have both sides roughly the same by reducing the height...

I appreciate this may have been done to death - nearly- but I just wanted to check before I go ahead.. I have a garden fence at present which is no longer standing due to Wind. In place of the fence I will be replacing it with a wall. Now the side where the wall will be going is the boundary...

I've got a tap like this: https://www.franke.com/gb/en/hs/expertise/special-features/franke-filterflow.html Normal Hot and Cold are softened ( the reason for cold softened is that you don't get the limescale build-up on sink, dishes etc when you mix for washing or any other reason to use cold...

Get an aquarium test kit like this: https://www.ntlabs.co.uk/browse-products/indoor/aquarium-lab/aquarium-lab-multi-test/ The KH and GH will give you the hardness! You can pick them up for approx £20 on amazon.

Cheers - found it in the engineers menu - user admin, then its 6 to enable/disable on the locked by screen! thanks for your help!

Just to clarify, Looking in the manual, is "User Locked by Code" showing on the alarm as "User x locked by timer"? Looking at the flow chart that's the only "user locked by" I can find, or am I barking up the wrong tree? (page 107 from the Texecom Premier Alarm Manual)

Thanks. - i'll have a look in the manual for the function and disable when i go around next!

Hi All, I installed a Premier Elite for my in-laws, and have an issue with disarming as follows: users 2 and 3 have been set pins + tags user 2 sets alarm with pin: user 2 or 3 can disarm with pin user 3 sets alarm with pin, user 3 can disarm with pin, but user 2 can only disarm with tag? Any...

I'm hoping to not backfill - instead create a slab over the top so in effect it becomes a tunnel, Happily insulate over the water pipe etc to keep it away from the colder days

Hi All, Not sure which area of the forum this goes in as it covers multiple areas, but I've put it in here as the one I think fits best! I have a walkway (my own) down the side of the house - approx 1m wide, for the full length of the house. At present, my sewage runs from the side of the...

Hi All, I have an Intergas HRE installed, with a Hot Water Zone, a radiator Zone and UFH zone. Each zone has its own zone valve. The Hot water is with Hot water priority. The Radiator Zone is just pumped via the boilers in built pump. The UFH manifold has its own zone valve and pump, along...

The plugs were removed/reseated when i changed the pressure switches a month or so ago, and then reseated one of them lasts night, and re checked the other at the same time. The connectors to the pcb were removed and refitted also as i removed the PCB. I guess one more opening and checking the...

So this morning I ran a white wash at 90 degrees, that worked fine - empty drum Immediately after that I ran the spin cycle - empty drum. Both worked fine. Then I put a load of washing in, and ran the coloured at 40 degrees. Started draining, and then stopped, timer on 0 and door unlocked. Put...
