I need to create the shuttering for a 600mm high stem wall that will run along the 6m edge of a (yet to be poured) 150mm thick floor slab. I will have to get ready mix delivered so wondering how I might be able to construct the shuttering to enable both the stem wall and the floor slab to be poured in one go.
Is it possible?
Thanks in advance for any guidance.

Can be done if your very experienced at this type of work even then most would pour slab with kicker and the do the wall.

kicker and pour wall after, using pan shutters and acros,maybe a few divi bars with cones to hold it tight togher if a wide wall might need she boilts. no a diy job needs a shutter chippy who knows strutting and bracing .shutering is skill on its own, a wall is definatly a shutter chippy job MSH

can be done using 600 rips of ply, timber wailings, soldiers and struts. with a 600 wall you could drill starter bars and form kicker after, best for a novice. is it a double sided shutter, or single, as a single could raise up and blow if poured to quick and not bolted down.
