hello,
I want to build a fake rock outdoors (example this erratic block:

) the size is 6 x 8 m and about 5 m high. it will be hollow and will be accessible as a kind of cave. I admit I have never worked with concrete. (I'm rather a wood specialist)I imagined to build a frame of iron and then spray the concrete on both sides for a total thickness of about 15 to 20 cm.
I do not know if I need to build foundations? is there a problem of humidity, venting? how hard is it to do a nice finish of fake rock? is only 15 cm thick enough? How do I estimate my time for the production of such a piece? where do I find a basic builder vocabulary ? any good source book for me to read this winter?
I am looking for general advice, errors from beginner to avoid tricks, corporations and others.
see you, gregory
