    @WesternInterlock Excellent job 🎉 planning to follow the same step by step. Will I be able to use 6-in W x 8-in H x 16-in L hollow blocks ?

    Well done. I feel I just need replicate this for my patio extension. @8:58, what is the use of square tubing ? Do you place them on the sides ?

      Those are 1” screed rails. They are the gauges to get our bedding material 1” thick. They are removed before the stones are laid.

    Wondering no need for drain pipe? Because it's only 2 blocks 16" tall??

    7:27 Bit concerned at what is going on in the reflection on the door glass. Creepy.

    Could this raised paver patio support a roof or would the base wall course need to be deeper?

    • @WesternInterlock

      What we've seen a lot of guys do is take sono tubes and pour concrete footings in the base rock to support the roof. If you're careful doing this, you can bring the level of the sonotubes to exactly the bottom of the pavers. Then, if you're not quite ready to build your roof right away, you can just pave over the top. When you're ready to build your roof, pluck up the few pavers to expose the footers and drill in your post brackets.

      It seems to me, if you are using a solid wall block and a solid paver/cap, that you wouldn't need piers. I can understand why you need them when building a wooden deck (covered or uncovered), but I can't wrap my head around what good piers would do if you've built your wall properly.

      Conceivably, you could do that, but you'd be asking a lot of the glue joint. The sono tubes are simply stronger. It's a matter of good vs. great. It's not whether or not you can, it's whether or not you should.

      Is your concern for the glue joints related to uplift?

    why did you add a layer of tarp at 6:40?

    • @WesternInterlock
      @WesternInterlock  10 месяцев назад +1

      It's not a tarp. It's woven geotextile that is specially designed to help prevent settling. You can watch a video about geotextiles here: ruclips.net/video/cV64eAkNfFM/видео.htmlsi=fPt9PfI2ZXeLXDG2
