A fence made of blocks "Washed concrete" and metalloshtaketnika their own. Results of the beginning of August

Previous Section

I continue my story about the construction of the combined intake from own cast blocks "Washed concrete" technology spans from metalloshtaketnika. At least on this material filling the space between the pillars I stopped.

Already I do not presume to think, because It happens all as in the saying: "If you want God laugh - tell us about your plans." Those who have read my posts, you know that I have changed three times in this part of the fence project.

Chronology of the work since the last description:

In every third row of blocks in the columns of the embedded reinforcement insert. This is for securing the gate and gate.

Within a block, poured concrete and fix the mortgage is not worse than the anchor. It would be possible to anchor. But the drilling hammer is likely to chop block.

Each row of blocks necessary to set the level: upper face must be within the horizon, and the side - the maximum vertical position. But because Geometry my block is not ideal - the ideal is always urged to the front face of the block and centered side. On the inside of the vertical face of sometimes went into the post a couple of millimeters. Because in each of the four forms flooded his errors in geometry.

Pouring typesetting pole blocks over. Molded block 110. I continue to cast cover on the masonry wall (two rows of concrete ribbon). Sometimes they grasped with cracks.

I am experimenting with different concrete composition (thicker and thinner), but realized that cover cracks due to too high temperature inside the greenhouse-during the day workshop. I began to leave them on the street - to crack stopped. Although this does not happen with paving slabs. Apparently, concrete too quickly loses moisture at a high temperature inside.

In the village on poles added lights. Lighting today is not only in front of me, but also added a section in front of the neighbor.

It gets dark earlier and earlier. A couple of times had to finish grouting here in this mode. Solution remained somewhat nezatertyh blocks. But in the dark or at dusk responsible work is better not to do. Checked.

Lake Park "Yemelyanovsky". Few days was the heat of +30. And in July as a whole was a cold. During the summer I swim the first time.

04.08.19g. not disdained to swim in a nearby pond and in a couple of kilometers from the village. For our climate 33 gr. this is hell.

Despite the heat, the eighth layer to expose finished blocks and grout horizontal joints between

Ready layer nine blocks. In six spans fixed upper crossbar.

When filling the viscera blocks inserted reinforcement segments (for a secure fit with the lower unit), because tenth block is above the inner tube.

It turned out that I did not consider the length of the wire fence for decorative lighting - the wiring was short. It is necessary to lengthen and only then to lay the last ten block. Caps for posts will be installed in the process of pouring their guts.
