Hi, 1st post. I am going to lay a base for a green house size 10' x 6', using 600x600x35 slabs. I've been given various ideas of the base, best suggestion (I think) has been to dig out the area to 100mm compact down the earth, and lay a dry sharp sand/cement mix at 6:1. Then lay the slabs on top, and drainage will be via the gaps and into the dry mix. The slabbed area is 12' x 8'
I'm a novice, so any advice would be gratefully received Thanks
