Looks like a lovely big job.
Do your "Building Control" folks ask for a sample of the concrete (as a "Set" cube) so they can do a strength test of it to see it meets or exceeds the required specification?
Today I struggled with the bearing and bearing stop placements on the inner ends of each side of the rear axle.
No room for any power tools to access inside the outer axle tube to gently open out the bore to allow easy bearing placement.
So it was all by hand
I got both inner bearings installed as a temporary fit in order to see if the removal of the centre section of the axle-tube had allowed the escape of "forces" to drive the two side out of alignment.
Here is a very short video where one of the half-shafts has been inserted all the way through from its own side across the gap and straight into and through the inner bearing on the other side.
Cheers ta much, funny loads of people said that but id like it neater, yes a slab in the middle I will come down 150mm in the centre & put some rebar in.

Sound a good job. That's what we did for that patio we put in. Two sides are the house walls, two sides are a coupla blocks or three high with rebar mesh some way down, can't remember how far down now! Then the mixer lorry came and piped it right over the house, filled the basin as it were up to the blocks. Can't remember now if we had shuttering up the outside of the blocks so that the concrete went over the blocks but I think we must have. (I say "we", I left it all up the handyman of the village to do. The blocks had been in for ages, just hadn't got around to doing anything else. ) So all slabbed over now and is lovely.Cheers ta much, funny loads of people said that but id like it neater, yes a slab in the middle I will come down 150mm in the centre & put some rebar in.

Are you going to scree it and/or polish the concrete?
If you do need to do a sample when set it must be cured in a bucket of water a if I remember correct 150×150mm so it fits in the pressThey havent asked for a sample but I will make one just in case, thanks for that.
Cheers mucka
