Sorry im a first timer. With council approval I'm attaching two rooms to the rear of my existing house. the rooms will be brick veneer external and gyprock internal with a colourbond roof. The existing house is on a concrete slab. The adition will be the same height of the existing house slab. My question is for the constuction of the new rooms;
1. What size footings must i use (width x depth)
2. What diameter mesh size is needed for the footings.
3. What size reo bars are need for joining the new slab to the house slab
4. How far apart do i drill the new reo bars for Q3.
I have checked the AS2870 but cannot workout the specs and council has approved this addition without requesting any specs. I live in the western suburbs of Sydney (HELP)
