Detail 1

A precut soleplate layout was completed once preliminary drawings are approved. This shows the rising wall 7KN block and soleplate setting out. The rising wall heights depend on the Architects detail in regards to insulation and screed build up. Most the posts in the building are set flush to the block and beam on a padstone, wind frames generally go down deeper.

Posts are clearly indicated on the drawings and finished plate level so that the builder can not be confused and leave them out.

Details on fixing and individual numbers of soleplate minimizes any errors on site.
