hi,
i am no builder at all and require a bit of help with my garden wall.
the wall is a right state, the bricks are all different sizes and very un-even along the top of the wall, I had an idea of buying some planks of wood and bolting them to the side of the wall (both sides) then pouring concrete in (basically like a mould). I am not going to pour lots in, just enough to get the height of the wall kind of consistent.
then was going to render the wall.
whats the best way to key/tie in the top pour of concrete to the existing wall? was thinking of drilling holes or even drilling and placing rebar down?
could someone come back to me with any ideas.
thanks in advance.
see file below of what I mean.
