I'm converting a large carport into a garage. The end away from the door has soil outside about 400mm above the floor, so I intend pouring a 700mm high concrete wall, 6 metres wide, starting 200mm below the floor, with a 200mm wide footing, and the rest of the wall 100mm thick. I will have a slotted drain pipe outside the wall. Later I will fill the whole floor with concrete.
I have plenty of reinforcing rod that I can put in the wall. How much should I use? And are those wall dimensions OK? The wall will not support anything except the soil and the plywood wall cladding. The ends of the wall will rest against two existing
150mm square treated poles that have 600mm square footings.
