Product Information

We would use a 5 gallon plastic drum, similar to the large feb containers, cut top and bottom of, cut straight up the side, then compress it to required diameter, hold together with tying wire. Piling tubes are designed for use in areas where ground heave is expected, i.e. The London Clay Belt. They serve as a great foundation where the heavy weight will be applied above. A special type of industrial tube , the special slip coating allows for movement of clay around the pile, thus greatly reducing stress normally transferred through the said pile. Fill the bottom of the hole with 2–6 inches (5.1–15.2 cm) of gravel. For most projects, a medium-sized all-purpose gravel will provide the best results. A layer of gravel will promote runoff, which can protect the footing from slipping or weathering and increase its lifespan. [3] X Research source Some building codes may also specify that the support footings for a certain type of structure be a certain diameter, which may determine the size of the form tubes you use. In most cases, traditional shutter board for concrete that could be available, has to be adjusted to the sizes required, while Monotub D.D. is usually delivered to your specification.

Monotub D.D. is 100% water resistant, which means the concrete formwork can be stored outside, without the risk of damaging the quality of the column former. It is advisable to store the tubes vertically to prevent them from deforming.Use a handsaw to cut the tube to length. Lay the tube on its side and line up the teeth of the saw blade with the marking you just made. Saw straight through the tube using smooth, precise strokes, steadying it with your free hand while you work. It may help to do your sawing on grass or another soft surface to keep the tube from rolling or sliding.

confirm availability before visiting. We can also provide fast nationwide delivery of all sizes of concrete forms. I did something similar when the kids had a swing in the garden dug a hole filled it with concrete and use a large coffee tin about 10" dia split and held together with gaffer tape temp, to cast the above ground bit. I set some u shaped steel in the mix to bolt the tubes to. We have been supplying cardboard tubes to continental Europe where concrete is extensively used for many years. There they are utilised for producing aesthetically pleasing visible columns or for footings where they can play a valuable role in reducing labour on excavation and of course help in a cost reduction for each project.You can also fire up a reciprocating saw to make cleaner cuts and shave a little time off your project. [7] X Research source This reduced the amount of excavation needed and also reduces the time taken, being both cost and time effective.
