Cellar of concrete rings: assembly technology with their own hands

That all preparations for the winter are not lost, you need a cellar. Build a cellar of concrete rings is not difficult. Rings can withstand the negative impact of water and soil.

The simple design makes installation easy. No need to do the foundation and strengthen the walls of the cellar. This cellar will serve more than 30 years. If you do the right waterproofing workpiece and vegetables in the cellar of the w / w rings do not freeze.

Cons embodiment cellar built from this material: heavy weight, fragility (the installation ring may crack). Therefore it is necessary to order a special lift to avoid damaging the material. It is necessary to make waterproofing.

The cellar of the rings will be cheaper than buying plastic caisson. There are 2 types of rings: standard and with a locking compound. When mounting the cellar better fit the lock ring connection. Even when the ground bias rings are not separated.

In the market you can see concrete rings of different diameters (50 cm - 2 m). The larger diameter of the rings is more preferable for the cellar. Concrete ring can be positioned horizontally and vertically. If you need a small cellar, it is enough for one ring.

cellar Construction

You need to dig a hole. You can dig your own hands, a shovel (if it is a small cellar). You can use the drilling equipment.

Necessary to dig a pit of greater diameter than the ring. Then, these empty spaces can be easy to fill the earth with the stone or brick fragments.

At the bottom of the cellar have to fill with sand, then gravel. Bottom ram and then pour cement mortar. Wait when the grab solution. You can buy one ring to the bottom, while the cellar construction process simpler.

Only after that you need to lower the concrete rings in the pit. Here it is possible to hire aerial platform. You can immediately negotiate with a company that will give you a ring and place directly into the pit.

Fluff joints between the rings water glass or cement mortar. Cover voids between ground and ground rings or pour concrete. Screw bolts to the top of the cellar stairs.

Now you need to think about the cover of the cellar. It is available (there are ready for sale), and can be done differently. Boil the corners of the frame (40h40h4 mm.). Cover cellar ceiling board thickness of 30 - 40 mm. or to use another material, for example laminated chipboard.

On formwork put a metal grid. Do not forget to bring a pipe for ventilation through the cover. From boards to make fencing (formwork). Fill all the M200 brand of concrete.

After the concrete hardens (by week), remove the formwork and making hole of bricks.
