A fence made of metal sheets. Second step: the installation of the formwork, reinforcing and pouring the concrete ribbon

In the last part, I focused on describing the stage where concreted poles. Further, according to the plan were concreting tape on poles line.

Earlier, on the timber base (where sawing timber) gained boards for shuttering: 25h150h3000mm - 26sht. I uploaded in the truck that delivered the intake pipe. I combine shipping.

Council:

As understood later, shuttering board thickness should be taken only 50mm - thinner is not necessary. If the panels of the board above 30cm, the concrete has already sufficient pressure and boards may arch. With this in mind, I have often put the props and tie bars for the ribs.

But in my case, where the tape was planned 30 cm and below - the thickness of the boards is enough. Only in the northern part of the fence (along the forest) had to build another 1-2 board when installing formwork. There concrete ribbon because of these boards to be not the ideal geometry. But because Then I tape is almost completely buried in the planning area (it is the lower part of the plot - to bring their humus from a trench under the fence tape and the entire mold from the site under the house foundation), all errors were hidden.

I decided to fill in from the north-eastern section of the angle. To get started on poles dug a trench depth of bayonet spade, and also on the width of the width of the shovel - 150mm. This is the width of the band decided to fill. 20cm seemed too broad.

Land disposal in a wheelbarrow and emptied at the bottom portion. Sometimes it comes across clay, but it was not much. Prokapat trench and on the northern part of the fence. But there later uses a somewhat different approach to the casting tape.

Then unwound steklokompozitnuyu fittings, skidding along its pillars (Bay 4 rod 25m). Reinforced by a rod 4, fixing the position on the post binding wire. When you fill in control valve position that she does not sag and does not move to the edges of the tape. The frame of it does not knit. Unfortunately, the pictures did not do it.

Concrete kneading in the mixer, which is idle for a few years to fill the time piles under the bath. The proportions are the same: 1 to 4. (4 ASG buckets, bucket 1 cement, water buckets 0.8). Too thick concrete did not do, because I had not yet been vibrators. The solution flowed freely.

Cement bought on the basis of the construction of the road and a supermarket in the building. I choose where cheaper. Acquired each time driving on the plot: 2-3 bag.

Water shared neighbor. He had already been drilled. In the day when he, too, did his building, I stretched hoses to his site, dock hoses and scored barrels. Nearly a week of work I have enough water.

As observed the horizontal level of the concrete ribbon? Yes, as the formwork was necessary, not in the horizon. I have done simply, between the posts horizontally pulled nylon yarn measuring out from the top of column 2m (plus 2cm in the gap between the metal profile and concrete). And concrete is poured strictly to this thread level.

CBC was from south side portion. Tipper could not pass further 5m on the site, as then there was rain, the car was falling and he dumped the gravel right at the entrance to the site. I had to carry on a trolley. Yes, far, more than 60 m. So what to do? The closer to the southern part of the filling - so it became easier.

Filled his hand on a few, very easy to install the formwork and casting bays - I moved to the south side where the tape reaches 40-50 cm in height. At first, I laid in a trench dug two rod reinforcement, pulled as he could and fixed on the posts. Filled the trench with concrete.

After the setting of concrete, a few days later I pulled the string as a pointer to the desired level of concrete, zaarmiroval (still in two strands + reinforcing mesh vertically) and set the formwork.

It is convenient to install when the trench with poured concrete. Nothing in it is not sprinkled, formwork is not moving out. Yes, there is a monolith with the lower part. But the fence for the concrete ribbon is not critical. The main task of the concrete ribbon - is that it is opposed to the forces of frost heaving and the pillars stand upright.

Yes, notice how overgrown plot in comparison with 2010-11. (Photos in previous articles). It turns into a forest. The neighboring plot (from the west) for many years now idle. And there is today growing already five-meter pine forest. Pine trees are planted themselves because seeds flying with the forest. But when the new owner is going to have it cut down. By the way, what I'm doing with my germinated seedlings - I discuss in a separate article. For all the time I did not cut down any pine.

Digress, go ahead.

3 installed on the formwork section (span). During night operation after the main operation (approximately 5 hours) able to fill two, and sometimes three flights. On average, 1 flight height of 30 cm took 8-10 buckets of concrete. Maximum record that put per working night - 12 kneading mixer. Usually, in the long summer days to come home no earlier than 11-12 hours in the evening, tired but happy that performed volume of work.

Boards have been used repeatedly in the work. formwork for the kind of tape became similar to the expression "we her blind of what happened."

So I filled almost 100m concrete fence tape. The next step - is to weld prozhiliny, log for the fence, painting and assembly of pipes metal sheets.
