Hi all,
I am needing to install a concrete base appox 12 feet square. The base will house a triple cat chalet (my wife fosters cats that can't be found homes). I was intending to make the base 4" to 6" thick, based on advice received. The base will sit on what is now a lawned area to the side of the house and I was thinking of a layer of broken brick/ stones etc approx 4" thick and pouring the concrete onto that. Will this be ok? Also, would I need a damp proof membrane and should this be below the hardcore or between the hardcore and concrete?
I'm a bit lost on the best way of doing this so any advice gratefully received. Regards, Jeff.
