Bump,

 

I've contacted the suppliers of cellweb who promised to supply some technical drawings this afternoon. They haven't come and I'm in desperate need now, as I have to include them in a document I need to send tonight.

Maybe cast your nets in the direction of uktc?

Try Aztec. They make a non woven and a woven. PM me for any info if you like. I do this sort of thing on the odd occasion.

I have great difficulty in following threads on there. Just wasted an hour trying to find the second post to a suitable question:confused1:

I've found a thread from 2009 where a member, Arboristsites had some drawings available. I think Tony Sorenson (sp?) received a copy.

Great to have you on the forum James. Hopefully there will be some further questions that you can help with.

Hi James,

 

Good to see you on the forum. I have dealt with a colleague of yours previously (Gavin Proud), very helpfully so can recommend the assistance given.

 

Gary,

 

I believe the minimum spec for the cellweb in your situation would be 100mm. This is good for vehicles up to 6 tonnes so fine for the average family car. There is a 75 mm version but this is for paths and cycle tracks I believe. There is also a 150mm and a 200mm for larger vehicles (30t and 60t I think). These figures can be affected by other ground factors such as CBR rating so best run your spec by James as he has offered. On development sites I usually recommend railway sleepers (new, not the ones with the tar) for the edging as it looks better than the timber edge.

 

Your main issue will most likely be getting the finished level back down to meet the public highway without digging into the root zone unless you have a sufficient distance outside of the RPA to grade. There may also be issues with the comparative FFL's within the building and/or the level of the damp course. No dig drives are great but they are not always possible. I specified one for a development site a couple of months ago but then recommended felling a couple of weeks later on a different site as it was not practical. I did discount the engineering solutions in the report though. Horses for courses mate.

 

Cheers,
