Re: Is concrete around new home required? 9Nov 16, 2021 11:25 am Noname nodyorc Hi, so just to clarify. if the P site (clay) already has a lot of bored piers under the waffle slab (say 50+ piers) single storey, you still need concrete/apron perimeters? yes. the piers do nothing to stop moisture getting under the slab. They're there for a different purpose. Thanks noname. Yeah ive been getting mixed advice on this. some say dont need to because its piered and has drainage points, but others say i need them. I was thinking of doing a combination of pavings and deckings to surround the house. does that mean i need to put a concrete layer underneath pavings and deckings for it to work? i wanted to avoid ugly concrete but looks like its unavoidable. |
