Hi all Just putting steel reinforcing mesh in my 150 by 600 foundations about 13 metre run. My brother in law-a civil engineer said just set the bottom layer on some bits of broken paving slab then use u shaped upstands to wire on the top layer both must be bedde 50 mm from the exterior. I mentioned my method to the brickie he was horrified for gods sake dont put any lumps on the foundation base. How is this supposed to be done--there must be a simple method.
