lazzah 1 Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 Hi all,I want to try my hand at building a side gateway which will join up with the one at the side of my next-door neighbour's house. The main column will be 680mm (3 bricks) long, one brick wide and will be about 2440mm high. Could I get away with laying the bricks directly onto the side path (it's fairly level) or is it essential to have a concrete foundation? If the latter, how deep do I need to go?Any advice gratefully received.Many thanks,Larry. Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Plasterur 1 Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 You will need to dig foundations for the brickwork which would normally be 100-150mm thick , usually 450mm below ground level. Link to post Share on other sites
