| Video Discription | The patio area was excavated so the new patio started at regulation 150mm below damp proof course (door cill level). As the patio fell toward the house an aco drain was installed along the house to take the water run off to a soak away. NOTE the aco's were not connected to the faul drain in the middle. A break in the acos was necessary where the sink out pipe connected to the faul drain. The aco's have a connecting pipe which continues the water on to the corner of the building where they are connected to the grey water (rain water soak away) drain (where the down pipe comes down from the roof). Don't connect rain water to faul drains. There is a 100mm mot type 1 on a fabric membrane subbase which is compact with a wacker plate. The slabs are bedded on a 5:1 sharp sand : cement mix with a small amount of feb additive. A priming slurry is applied to the back of the slabs to increase adhesion and reduce raising moisture in the slabs in the future. An sbr and cement mix can be made as a primer as long as its mixed well and is of thick consistency. The laying pattern supplied with the slabs is thrown in the bin where it belongs and a random formula is used as follows: NO CROSS JOINTS (4 corners of slabs meeting). T joints only. No long lines - if more than 3 slabs in a straight line try to break it with a T joint. The best way to achieve this pattern is start in one corner and work your way out diagonally. Zig zaging a diagonal line of the two larger sized slabs and then zig zaging a line of the two smaller sizes. If you go straight along the house you end up with long lines. Try to use up the smaller ones near the end so you have larger slabs left. If you need smaller ones at the end they can be cut down but if you run out of large ones you can't make any. A 1:80 fall is directing water to the aco drains. The patio is dead level from side to side. Pointing is a traditional 1:3 cement:soft sand mix with some black feb tone to make it grey. The retainer is made from pressure treated sleepers backed with damp proof membrane to prevent soil erosion. The steps are made from brick and sandstone as wooden steps tend to wear over time and become slippy. The batton panels are hand made from planed soft wood and treated to look like cedar as is the retainer seats after being lightly sanded. Materials - grey Indian sandstone, Nordic timber sleepers and pressure treated soft wood painted in cuprinol country ceder. Making use of wasted space by installing a new patio and seating area. About 2 weeks to complete for 2 people. A micro digger was used for the dig out and waste away in 1 load in an 8 wheel grab lorry.
