How to make a blind area around a shed on an uneven area

The blind area plays a big role in ensuring the durability of the foundation of the building, and therefore the entire structure as a whole. The blind area is designed to protect the soil and foundation from moisture. In addition, the blind area serves as a path along which you can move around the building. Therefore, when making a blind area, you should take into account all the features of the terrain.
Stages of making a blind area around the barn.
1. At the first stage, it is necessary to prepare the area for the future blind area. First, you need to remove the top layer of soil at least 70 cm wide along the entire perimeter of the building. On a level area, you should make a depth of about 10 cm. On uneven areas, there is no need to make trenches. We install formwork along the edge of the trench.

2. Additionally, there is no need to protect the structure of the blind area around the shed with reinforcement and a rubble cushion; it is enough to fill it with mortar. To prepare the solution, you need to prepare slag, cement grade M 400 and water.

3. After the solution has been prepared, install the concrete mixer in a convenient place and pour the retard.

4. Pour the solution in parts.At the same time, we constantly level the solution using a trowel.

5. After the mixed part of the solution has been poured, it is necessary to thoroughly level the pouring area. To do this we use "provil".

6. Periodically it is necessary to check the rewind level.

7. Otmotsk is flooded. Next, we leave the solution to dry for several days.

8. When the solution has hardened well, you can remove the formwork. We make steps near the entrance to the barn.

    It’s utter nonsense, firstly, no matter what kind of soil, a sand cushion is required, and secondly, you definitely need to fill it through a lath, but not fill it entirely, after a meter place a lath equal to the height of the blind area, and cover it with film to avoid premature drying
