Thanks mate

Level is absolutely caked in muck to be fair 😂 I might treat myself to a new one you know. Hope your well mate

@@PATTERSONCONSTRUCTION brick acid 👍🏻

@@CharlieCollison True mate

Mucky level but fresh white jumper 🤣

Thank you mate

Good going that mate. The weather isn’t looking good at all mate. I’ll still get in and see what we can do like. Are you still going in?

Aye,I will still show willing mate.

@@davebarrow2194 best way mate, we’ve got to be a cut above the rest

Defo matey

Not sure mate, this site has never used thermo trench blocks yet

I have done foundations for over 30 years and only used trench block once there not used much in Scotland it’s normally 6inch concrete internal and 4 inch external

They aren’t letting anyone on them yet mate. Hopefully get one soon

We do run lines as well mate

@@PATTERSONCONSTRUCTION I know you will run a line from your profiles but I mean when your setting them up before the lines go on how can you guarantee the profiles are square to each other from just putting them next to the pin

Sorry for my questions I have just always set up from hurdles and plummed down off q line I haven't done any big site work

Thanks bro 😎

Trench blocks are 140mm

And double check ya heights with dumpy or laser what’s to say ya concrete is bang on level

I didn’t have my laser with me today but I’ll take it in tomorrow and double check mate. Also 8 course for ground height mate.

Underbuild

Thankfully this will be a once in a blue moon occurrence 😂😂

Footings are no worse on your body than doing supers if they are scraped off completely. No excuse for all that island crap. Work from barrow and off pallet for blockwork no need to stack out. Wouldn’t do them if not I’m not working like a mountain goat.

@@scottjohnson1456 but they rarely come completely flat. 99% of the time you’re working in a trench so it would be impossible to use a wheel barrow, and how could you work from a pallet? That doesn’t even make sense

@@PATTERSONCONSTRUCTION Decent groundwork companies will flatten them off all the ones we do are. We did few that weren’t for someone else it took so much longer. It doesn’t take anytime in a machine to sort it. You can then get your materials/ blocks next to where you working and work from them. Only moving them once . Mixer put next your footing no need for tubs all that mixing station crap waiting for driver to bring it. Bricks only thing need to be loaded out on inside skin for doing your splash obviously

@@scottjohnson1456 sounds like you’ve got a good system going on but it would never work on the sites around here. We get ready mix as well so we have to get tubs. It would be a dream doing footings if all ground was scraped away
