Havent got a copy of the AS as home at the moment, I plan on putting up a bearer on exisitng pier, (all OK from the engineer site inspection) but I have to wait for his design on suitable tie down.
Is there such thing as worse case scenario? put at least hoop strap over down the wall 600mm and fix with a couple of 50mm M8 dyna bots for peace of mind, screw into the strap (easy to take out if needs to change, triple grip all joist to bearer. Or is it a waste of time?
I plan on putting a piece of plastic DPC under (just in case), its fully under cover but a simple piece of DPC is not that hard.
