Fast dumping pads under the base-plate

Once the foundation platform has been made, I ordered three Dump: fine gravel and sand-gravel mixture (CBC). Each of 18 m3. But in fact, they carry no more than 15 m3. Because this amount is too large mass and a dump truck for the roads.

Crushed goes down (less it absorbs moisture), and ASG small - topsheet. Recommend pour sand cushion. Due to its increased mobility. But a good load-bearing capacity has only wet sand. Dry it seems shaky, sand generally easier to undercut melted waters. A load-bearing capacity of small ASG - above. And at the same time, it has more air space between the stones - when water freezes, the ice will expand and fill the void, rather than moving the movable bottom. But this is my opinion.

According to calculations of the thickness of the cushion it receives at least 30cm. To this plate a sufficient thickness of the cushion.

Adding a third volume, another car ASG. You can call BobCat. Manually transfer this amount to one (in the garden trolley) - is simply unrealistic. Therefore, if there's a number you can order such a technique as BobCat - do not hesitate, order. Health is more important than some 5 thousand. rubles. If you hire employees (many do), it will cost even more.

Ground work in preparing the site for the base-plate are among the most expensive. Trench digging under the tape by hand, though for a long time, but if you do yourself - that is free. The pillow does not need so much stuff. But if you do backfill strip foundation (floors on the ground, for example), then the volume of arms transferred sand or gravel will be very large. Although, as you can order it and BobCat the perimeter nasypet the gravel or sand. But in the center of the foundation will have to jibe with his hands.

On the same day he caused already proven in the technique:

A short video filmed at the beginning of the process of dumping the pillow:

In total, BobCat paved pad for three hours. In view of delivery to the site paid 5 thousand. rub. Like what was displayed very precisely horizontal level of dumping. Due to no horizontal portion of the surface, it seemed to me, that pillow is a small slope. I do not really trust at the beginning of the driver said that nothing else you want to display. But later, when tested gidrourovnya and laser levels - Make: pillow is horizontal. Manually completed the finishing touches on some of the perimeter.

It can be seen that the level of soil on the south side above the cushion, and from the north it is flush with the ground. In autumn remove the excess soil for foundation perimeter.

CBC had a little of the original heap - move it to the trolley: a few dozen trucks dumped in various locations around the perimeter and leveled. Scooped from the ground remains of gravel and moved to the edge of the pillow, in the area of ​​the blind area.

Cost turned out:

- CBC small, 18 cc. Truck Scania: 2 cars - 20 thousand. rub.

- Crushed fine, 18 cu. Truck Scania: 1 car - 13 thousand. rub.

- BobCat rental (3 h with delivery) - 5 th. rub.

Total: 38 thousand. rub. on the pillow for the foundation

In view of the ground works (16850 rubles. - in the previous article): 54850 rubles.

Next spaced corners of the foundation and their squareness checked through measurement: 3 + 4 * 3m * 4m * 5m = 5. I verify that the diagonals. Hammered metal angle in the corners of the foundation.

It was possible to collect the formwork. But I decided to go the hard way. For the foundation, I decided to produce, to mold permanent formwork with a decorative coating "Washed concrete" and with a layer of thermal insulation polystyrene as an insulation. It was purely my own, never peeped idea. Results in savings on the sawn timber and immediately zadekorirovat foundation durable coating.

To do this, I needed somewhere to produce concrete works. Build makeshift? Canopy? But they will not leave the small tools, small articles of concrete as there will be doors. All will be purged or may wet the rain. Considering the cost of such makeshift (7-10 thous.), I gave up the idea because I saw a lot of minuses. I did not like the look of the buildings on the site, which is a couple of years to come in even worse, poor condition and this will in fact thrown out money.

Which version of a utility room, I applied for my ideas - read the following article ...
