I’ve attached a photo. The top square chamber is the existing brick manhole.
The lower muddy hole with water is where I excavated down through clay soil. After removing the clay, I hit solid concrete, and my pipe runs underneath it.
My questions are:
- What is the correct way to create a new connection here?
Do I use a core drill into the concrete and then add a soil pipe and waterproof around the edge? Or
Do I use core drill into side of manhole?
Or other?
Any building regs rules I should follow for new branch connections, falls, or benching?
I basically need to bring a new 110mm waste pipe from a garden building into this system.
Any guidance on the correct method, tools, adaptors, and what to avoid would be hugely appreciated.
