Soakaways

Soakaways are rectangular or circular excavations, filled with either rubble or lined using brickwork, precast concrete, polyethylene rings/perforated storage buildings surrounded by granular fill. To drain large areas of land, such as highways, they can be linked together. Geocellular or modular units can replace the backfill and supporting structure.

Although they are very easy to incorporate into a site’s landscape, they provide little in the way biodiversity or amenity value. They should be entirely underground and should not have any water on the surface. They do however increase soil moisture content and recharge groundwater. This can help reduce the impact of low river flows.

Soakaways are an alternative to draining surface water through a stream or sewer system. Soakaways are a great way to manage surface water. The soakaways gather all the run-off from the surface, and then allow it percolate in a controlled manner into any ground or soil around it.

Ponds

There are many options for creating a water body. Most involve digging out a hole that has the desired shape. But, what makes it different is the impervious material you use to line the hole. These materials include concrete, semi-solid preformed pools and waterproof liners. It is a great way to incorporate water into your garden as a feature or habitat. To avoid leaves and excess shade, ponds should be placed in direct sunlight.

A rectangular, square or circular pond is suitable for formal gardens. An irregular-shaped pool looks natural in smaller gardens. To ensure that water is well-aerated and clear, fish and other plants must be kept within a 38 sq ft area (3.5 sqm). A filtration system for small ponds is needed.

Foundations

In softer soils like sand, strip foundations may be necessary to spread the building’s load over a larger area. To ensure walls are protected from the earth’s movement and to withstand any possible sinking, all houses require foundations. We’ll be looking at different types, how to build them, and the different drainage methods such as soakaways, French drains, and land drains.

Digging the foundation trenches for groundwork is much easier with machinery, as you can easily get the digger on the building site. To ensure that you use your wheelbarrow safely, we provide information on how to load it. The foundation of a structure is the lowest part of a building, which is what is fixed into and above the ground. Foundation gives buildings structure.

Footings

Foundation construction requires the use of footings. They are used to hold the foundations in place and prevent them settling. These solutions can be very useful in areas of poor soil, where foundations may shift quickly or give no support to the building. Your groundworks team should have extensive experience dealing with footings, as they play an integral part in construction.

Foundations are vital components of any construction. They should be supported by the expertise of footing contractors. A foundation that is solid and stable can make any type of construction unstable or even collapse, whether it’s a multi-bedroom home or a deck. Reliable footings are essential for all types of buildings: residential, commercial, and industrial.

The size and layouts of your footings will vary depending on what soil you have and what foundations you plan to build. Your concrete footing contractor will tell you how large, deep and how long your concrete footings must be. For the best foundation support, you will also require a professional groundworks crew to design the footings.
