 So, Steve's just pulled up now, I don't know if you can see, it's just over the fence so we're going to hopefully do all this crap move now, so we'll see how much we can get and then anything, if there's anything left, let's have to go and skip, but that's fine. So let's set up a time-lapse for all the magic happens. There it goes, sorry about you couldn't see the end part, the GoPro a bit, there it goes. Couldn't get the last part in unfortunately, the camera overheated, but there we go. Good ol' Steve has got it all gone again, like Dad said it's always satisfying when the shit goes, so again thank you very much, Jane Eapier, always our favourite grab hire. So there you go, there's that big pile of crap gone and obviously we've kept that part because we're going to use most of that for backfilling, we're going to backfill the outside with that, so anything that's left over we can just toss it in the skip, same with all the stuff on the inside, that's going to be for hardcore, so that's why we didn't need a ton or anything of Steve, so there we go, thank you very much Steve and the other Steve, he's been busy getting this ready. Go on, how deep down is it? 1450 to damp to that lowest point there. So from damp to the lowest point 1450? That is the concrete for the manual, that's the bottom course of the manual, she's solid enough to take that out, and then we're going to put the board across here, fix it with a couple of screws and put a bit of foam in it so it seals so the concrete's not getting in, and then on the other side we're just going to backfill it once I've fixed that, I'm going to mix a bit of concrete in that, bed it in concrete and then case it in concrete, then tomorrow we'll backfill it, bury it. Don't want to just use the concrete we're going to get? No, because I've been messing around with that and now we've got the concrete in here, I can get at it at the moment, it's nothing in my way, that was difficult that this morning, climbing inside that, there's a big chamber, it's not really big for working, it's a pointless manual, so building a spectre said, repair that, bury it, this will be quite happy to do, so we'll just measure it up for our concrete now, because we're going to be grounded quite a bit extra in here, because this is digging down to the invert for that pipe, that's been left in, that's called clay, so we need stuff here. Yeah, in case we need to again. Just leave it over there or something, but we need you to fill it down. Three o'clock, so off to Fairwoods we go, so we will see you tomorrow for concrete. A big thank you to Jason for saving our skins, doing half that dig, while we were hissing about with all that, he got all that done and all this, so as always, thank you Jason. So yeah, so we'll catch you tomorrow for the rest of this, leveling, concreting and loading out some materials. Happy Friday, Friday the 2nd of June and day four at the extension job, well, Conservatory Stroke Extension, so there you go. That is, I think we measured it's 1450, 1500 from damp down to there, dug down to the invert of the pipe, then we stepped up here, I think there's still a good 450 of concrete up to 400 up there, all the way around, there's going to be a lot of concrete going there. Got a piece of ply, brought that to put across there, because we don't need to concrete into that, so that's going to get screwed onto there, a bit of foam to seal it, and that's getting back filled, once I've repaired that, let me just see if I'm pointing in that place, once I've repaired that little branch there, completely pointless, but we'll get it done, oh yeah, there's the pipe, wonder where I put it then, there. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to mix sand and cement, strong three to one mix, bed it into the sand and cement, and then cover it over with sand and cement, so it's all punched over, so there's some stones in it, so it's got a bit of strength in it, and then it's ready for backfilling. There's nothing coming through, I've tried all the pipes, it's not a soil pipe, I've tried all the gullies, so it's just relative braces, just making sure. What else have we got to do today? I've got to put the nails in for the levels, concrete's coming this afternoon, here's the whole muck gone, that's always nice to see, because that was a big pile of muck, I was a bit worried it wouldn't fit at all on, still got a couple of tons there, but we've got a backfill around the edge of this, once we're finished, drains have got to be reinstated all the way around, because they need a gully for this end, because it's got a lot of water to take off these roofs. What else? We've got plenty of stone to grab backfill, it's all been scraped off down low enough, so that's ready for spreading back out. We might need another ton maybe, but with that I can come over the fence and split the bag. What else have we got to do, Alex? Oh, cellcodes this afternoon to pick up some insulation boards. What we're going to do, let's see what they say. Yeah, look at another job, I've been busy looking at jobs lately, but look at this, it's all a day. You're not going to drop a rain for weeks? No. Which is always a relief when you're doing foundations. There's the old footing. I'm just jumping out, just showing them how thick it was and where the reinforcement was, yeah. It is. Pashes buzzed, it's a man I've been working with, just recording. I hope it's still working. So, there's the reinforcing that you can see here. And then, thankfully that was more or less at the bottom because there's the rest of it from here to about there. Yeah, here it was at its deepest, like in some places. Oh yeah, show them depth, how far down the extension concrete goes and how much we've gone under it. Yeah, so, oh Jesus. Three course from damp. So, three course from damp. There's the foundation. And there's how far we've gone. Well, we... Dad and Jason did all this bit. While me and Jason were getting the muck moved at the grab, Dad got all this finished off. The manhole protruded into where our wall's going to go. So we didn't want to be building on top of the manhole so we cut it back so we can get concrete in. Happy days. And while Dad's making the cuts and all that, I'll get the fan gutted out with the stuff that we need so we can get that insulation in, if we need be. So far we're having the weekend off. As it seems, yeah. I think we need one after all this. At least... I'm not going after this, it's really dumb here. Ugh! So yeah, I'll hand you back to Dad and I'll start getting this van done. Oh yeah, quick one. It was 300mm concrete reinforced, but it wasn't very deep and it was on a loaded shite. So we'd gone through all that trouble of reinforcing it but the ground, we hadn't gone deep enough with it. As you can see, we've gone through this crap into the clay. It was 650mm, minimum 650mm. It's 700mm, so it's got a really good spread under the foundation. And it's got a block pillar, four metre opening, block pillar, solid block wall. So it's just two walls under the door, really. A big door. Update from down the hole. The hole's so deep, I need ladders to get into it but then I need ladders to get into bed at the moment, my hip. There you go. The shuttering's on. It's pretty strong because it's against the brickwork. So it's not going to push anywhere. We're going to put a few buckets of stone down here but there's a lip there as well. It's going to stop the pushing. Pipe's fixed. We've just dropped a piece of plastic, sliced a piece in there, sealed it in with conk. Very strong sand cement. We're going to put a few buckets of stone down here. We bought a tube of an expanding foam. I've never used this stuff before. I think it paid four quid for that. That's not bad. That's it. I did one on the side and went out. But that's the ropey side with the big holes. So that's sealed. This side, we ran out obviously but the gap is next. You won't even fit the stones through that gap so you might just get a bit of water coming in there when the concrete goes in. I might just put a piece of timber here just to brace this because it's only thinned. It's quite a hefty lump of concrete going in here. Quite deep. So, yeah. Then we'll just, like I said, put a piece of timber in here just to stop it crushing at the top. And then what's next Al? Oh, get the levels in. Yep. Cool. Here comes my clam resistance. Try and keep it away from that pipe so that's going off. There we go. Some marks here. This is our TPC level and the extension. This is where we kick off from. It's not level. It runs down at the other end. This is our floor level. So instead of messing up the bits of timber for the floor we're just going to build a blockwork up to that and then cut the first course. We did that on the last extension. It worked out a bit better. So, we've worked our gauge out which is 525 is a course of trench and four course of brick. So that's 225 plus 300. Now, I've set it at 21 inches which gives us about 10 mil to play with. It makes a concrete 10 mil low which is better low. You don't want to start cutting trench blocks. You don't want tight beds on trench blocks either. No. So, show you that again. So that level is currently against the clay. Messes that up. See it's 21. Going to get on close. That's 21 at DPC. So now, Alex. Well, I've held the level. He's put the staff on. So, what that means is for those of you who don't use these things a lot that bottom of that staff is the level line of our concrete. So what we do now is we fall around and just put the staff against the side of the trench until we get the it's called flat line. Stick a nail in, put a bit of spray on it and that's our level to follow then. We don't put pegs in there anymore I just think a piece of timber in the middle of the concrete weakens the concrete. Some drinks for you. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Cheers. Drinks arrived. So yeah, that's what we're doing now. So that's going to be a level line all the way around. We're going to put them both sides wherever we can get them in. And that is ready for concrete then. So, we'll stick it on time and that's how we get this done. And then we'll move around as we go. Happy Friday. Let's get these levels in. Look how good bloody clay soil it is. You have to hammer the bloody nails in. Luckily I have a machine on this side and then I'm marking it on the wall. So, there you go. Two, three, a couple of extra's in the corners because you can always lose level easy in the corners and then we alternate the going down the trench. The the line that I've done is the what you call it and then the concrete just kisses underneath that concrete there. We'll let that bit go a bit high actually because it catches the concrete. So yes, nice deep concrete that. Nice and wide. Ready to go. And it will be tied into the old one as well. Yeah. Yeah, so we'll probably get one on this corner and get the warm art and then we're done. Got a drink, haven't we? Need is the spirit level to level across to the wall. The look as that goes in. Going into the block. Yeah. That should be 75 mil, that. More or less. That looks it. And we're done. Let's go for a break. Just took me to take my debris down and get out. I'm chucking my ladders back in. That was one tough three days that. Concert three, two walls, fishbush banged down in two days, no problem. How long we were. I think now if we're taking something existing out we need to price three days to play it safe. Yeah, definitely. Because if they end up being reinforced again. Yeah. That was tough. But by this afternoon I've concrete in here so we can relax a bit then. And have a weekend away. A weekend away from work. I'll be editing in price and jobs but I'll be relaxing at home. That's the main thing. See you after a break. Right, I'm back for a quick one. Obviously there's all our levels so we can get our debts and everything now so we can work out what our concrete's going to be. I originally had it a course higher but it was coming out over three metres and it's getting shockingly expensive there. So what I've done is I've dropped everything down a course. So we'll have a course of trench, four course of face brick on the outside. On the inside we'll have a course of seven newton concrete blocks and a course of commons. So that sorts all that out. We might have to change those commons to 73s or do away with them all together and put a block on edge because we've got to pick up that 30, maybe 40mm there. So I'll have to have to think about that. We might have to just cut some blocks for that. Back to the subject in hand. So what I do is to check the... So what I do to work out the concrete is measure from the wall to the bank. So that's basically measuring this section, this whole end section to the, from that, it's 3.3 by 0.650 which is the width by 0.310 which is the depth. That's pretty level that. That gives us 0.67. Next one we measure from here and we measure back. Because it's a bit of a weird diggy we measure to the lip there and stop there and we get quite a bit deeper here. We're down to 4.30 here now. So that one's just 4 metres in length by 700 wire because we've gone a bit wider across the front. And then 3.80 is the average depth which is roughly, 3.80 is roughly in the middle. And how you work that out is you measure your 3.310, your 4.30 you add them together which gives you a kind of what the number is. Let me do it one day. So I think it's 0.320 which is 0.430 so that's your lowest depth to your deepest depth equals gives you 0.75. So you divide that by 2 that gives you average depth which is 0.375 that just rounds up to 3.80 So that's how you get your average depth because it's on a slope. So we've got 4 metres by 0.700 wide by 0.380 deep gives us 1.1 So this section from here to the drop is 1.1 and then the drop bit is 1.4 long to the step 650 wide see it might be slightly thinner at the end there but that's fine and then it's 900 deep and I've measured down to the lowest point so this would be less concrete than I've worked out for this that comes out to 0.8 so that's not far of a cube just for that end part So you add all them together gives you 2.6 cube so that's what we'll be asking for 2.6 it's always slightly over footing because you can't be sure exactly so if we can keep it under 3 metres I'll be happy I did originally this was originally quoted for 750 deep with 1.6 cube of concrete but as things progressed we've got the extra labour and the extra depth so it's going to be slightly dearer and then a bit extra on the labour but this is what happens when you're doing foundations you don't know what you're going to find so you have to let them know there could be extra cost involved when you start digging sometimes you're up to 900 pounds what can be more than that sometimes you're going to a job and it needs piling 2 grand minimum it's like what do you do do you fill it back in or do you carry on a lot of people have budgeted to the penny to the job 2 grand just goes on top of it it's out of the question so yeah there's our workings out that's what we're getting in hopefully this afternoon early let's see if it's gone off a break there we go concrete's arrived so full steam ahead I think I'll get a bit of this crap move so they're not on that much and then that'll get raking so we'll get you settled there we go where's all that hard work gone once that concrete's in you'll never see the suffering that we had to endure that was explained other levels before there we can they're a bit encased in concrete but you can see that's our nail point you can see the nail it's just slightly above that's why you put these red stripes up here so if your concrete goes over your nail you know where to find it to check the concrete down nail back up there's another one there we go that's that awful dig buried away in concrete and that manhole's been filled up and a bit of leftover concrete's just gone there too so that'll get filled up properly next time but for now that is us done so next time you see us we'll be the next video where we're getting materials that's going to be fun there's a title we picked up the crap all the goods are going to get dropped off so this is intro part 2 alright this is intro part 2 so I'll hand you over to Alex sorry this is outro part 2 so I'll hand you over to Alex over there there you are I thought you were going with the camera man then so there we have it that is 3 days digging, gone buried I'm not a friend anymore but I'm very satisfied now that concrete's gone in and nice clean garden too thanks to steve1 and steve2 steve1 doing all the grabbing and steve2 doing all the brushing so the thing that I'll do for this video I'll give you a little bit of a pull you in have a close look at that concrete now you can do it, thank you run the trench run and there's the manhole 2 which has been back filled and a bit of leftover concrete just to top that off we'll fill that with stone when we get to it but there you go there you go so that will be the end of this video if you enjoyed be sure to give a thumbs up and if you're new to the channel you want to see more be sure to hit subscribe and tap on that bell icon that way you'll always be notified when we upload it's always a great it's always a massive help and we greatly appreciate the support this has been brick game with steve and alex very happy to be done with this dig and we'll see you in the next video with all the materials
