I will be pouring a number of concrete pad stones in situ
These pad stones will be according to the building inspectors spec, however, what is the best way to do it, make the pad stones at perfect height so they will take the RSJ and are at the perfect height, or do I make them about 10mm lower and pack the RSJ with a dry mixture of cement, so it will sit at the perfect height (also knowing that concrete shrinks when drying therefore achieving the perfect height is difficult)
Your help/comments are appreciated
