Morning all,
I have taken on some of a job that has some questioning architect details.
He is a very typical “know all, don’t question me” type of architect, so thought I would ask here first as BCO said nothing is wrong as per the regs so that’s where his concern stops.
The drawings have an old slab from and old extension removed and a new addition of a block and beam floor to the side and rear I was surprised to see the height of the hardcore pretty much matched with the block and beam.
I would normally expect a 4inch slab, PIR, UFH then screed. The plans ask for well compacted mot, blinding, dpm, PIR, dpm/slip sheet, UfH and flowscreed. I’ve not seen this done before just want some advice from people if this will cause any issues down the line as the whole area will be tiled and worried about screed cracking and come back of work I didn’t do but am finishing.
Cheers
Plumby
