Hello everyone,
what do you think about starting the construction of a house in early to mid-November, brick by brick?
Are there any risks involved, especially if winter sets in by early to mid-December?
Could there be issues with masonry work, and is it possible to simply pause the structural shell at that point?
I would appreciate your professional opinion on this.
Best regards

Not a single one with a basement where it looks like that. Then you already missed the very first one

To me, this looks like a sloped site — so using the drainage level for the wastewater system could make sense. But why are there so many on the picture? We have a total of 4 bathrooms, but only two outlets to the outside. As I said, I’m only interested in the technical aspect.
Also, those are KG2000 pipes in the picture, which are very pressure-resistant — always better for this kind of application than regular KG pipes.

Every penetration of the slab is a weak point — in basement construction this can be even more critical than in slab-on-grade construction without a basement. With a basement, you naturally have pipes on the ceiling or walls — which can, of course, be boxed in.

Sebastian7927 Nov 2015 22:54It depends on where the duct is located – in new development areas, it is usually above basement level.
That’s what I initially thought too, but you only see short basement sections that lead nowhere downward. And as I said, there are so many individual ones...
