Fantastic, understand perfectly now mate, great help.:)

No idea if I need to do further works, just a little random to have a timber spec with no details, yet another question I need to ask.

Just some Feadback if interested The timber Is related as on one of the drawings you sent attached, it shows a timber purlin so we have generated the load that purlin will impose on the steel beam we have designed.

Thanks guys, engineer emailed back he's looking into it hopefully a mistake.. I'll let u know when he responds. Thanks again

Can't see the timber included in the final drawing.

Wouldn't say a alternative, spam of rear to house 5 metres

Unsure of how to read the force correctly, but I hope the attached helps

Hi Just a quick question, im awaiting structure engineer to reply to email, but it's bugging me now. The council BC attended today all work fine but have questioned why this timber spec on drawing. It's just randomly on there and confused everyone, the calcs are only for steel in rear wall...

Thanks Tony made it all straight forward now mate, much appreciated

Thanks woody, just spoke to a mate he said there builders used Rd curbs and cut down no problem with building control? I'm always over thinking things my trouble..

I understand you can't cut padstones down, but finding the correct size is a nightmare, I will need the padstone to sit on external and internal brick work 280mm wide, the rsj is 270mm wide..(No cold bridging internal) Any suggestion of of a suitible padstone size emailed and called guy who...

If I'm reading correctly padstone according to plans is 175mm rsj 270mm

My point Tony, and thanks for the reply, the two rsj's bolted together are 270mm, which to be honest is the cavity wall thickness, the rsj is fine. The padstone calculation seems way out..

More detailed

Hi guys, just a little confused my drawing states that 215 width padstones are required, but the two steels bolted together are 270 wide, see attached so confusing. Surely the padstone with would be the same has rsj?

Returning to my previous post, NHBC state 'where there is a exposed wall between the coping and flashing cavity tray should be installed.. If the epdm rubber membrane runs up and below the aluminium coping is there a need for weep holes on external render. (no exposed wall) From top of coping...

Have seen some fantastic aluminum coping online,having posted a similar question before,when I was thinking of using coping stone. Aluminium coping comes with seals and looks all professionally desisgned to make the product water tight. Have been told before with the stone coping,weep holes...

Stuart you mentioned proper cavity trays,there seems to be a huge variety,could you possible send me a link that are suited for 100 mm cavity with block work.Only seem to see the small length ones at Screwfix/Toolstation,can't see how this makes sense.i thought the longer they are the less...

Thanks,so just bed in and bring down a block on external leaf,bringing up at the ends to create a closer,job done,and building BC Should be happy..not forgetting the weep holes

The description states not suitable for unsupported across cavity walls ??
