I have a shed with the floor 3 x 3 mts and I want to lay a slab for it about 100ml deep. I pretty much know what to do because I have helped my dad and brother many times but have never actually taken charge of any cementing or concreting work myself.
Could anyone direct me to an online guide on laying small slabs so i don't miss some small, yet essential step and end up with a large grey mass of pain and disappointment :(.
thanks :2tsup:
Here yer go, mate. Even a Seppo can find the answer for yer. :rolleyes: 77 pages of information.

:U Thanks dude, really thats what I was after. :cool:
I found a diy guide on the Boral web site, the info is still there, but the downloadable guide seems to be gone

wow, that guide makes it sound very simple and easy, I am almost inspired to concrete my driveway right now (hey, know anyone who wants to do the labour, free bbq provided :)Quote:
