Formwork - ring. I made a structure from various leftovers and scraps. What is the result?

For all the time of my self-construction, I have been convinced more than once how important the reliability of the formwork is. But for some reason you always want to make it out of anything.

The final stage of the construction of a septic tank with their own hands began. And this time I had to show considerable ingenuity to get a decent result.

If you are interested in all the previous stages, then go to my channel, there you will find everything.

This work became part of the construction of the stove, or septic tank cover.

It was necessary to make access to the compartments, and the peculiarity is that their shape should be round.

Since I did not find square hatches on sale, it was best to make the same concrete structures for round ones.

But if everything is simple with straight shapes, it has been done more than once, then how to make a circle, and even so that the concrete would withstand, at first it was not clear.

But it turned out not so difficult.

  • For the inner walls, sections were sawn from a 100 x 25 mm board.

  • And the rigidity was betrayed by a piece of reinforcement twisted into a ring.
  • And a circle of OSB.

The outer part of this structure, I have already made rectangular.

The circle was no longer needed there.

The result is quite decent access to the septic tank compartments.

When the hatches have already been installed and everything is covered with soil, there will be no trace of all my labors, only these photographs.

But probably this is a good septic tank, which is not visible, and which does not stink ๐Ÿ‘Œ.
