    Does anyone know of any problems or issues with using dense enviroblock to get from strip foundation base to grade?

    Has anyone come across a "hollow block" version that is wider than the standard 215mm?

    Perhaps I should put it another way ... can anyone confirm that it's fine to use Enviroblock sub-grade?:confused:

    What's Enviroblock...?

    You should ask the people who make it.

    I'd rather hear from someone without a bias ....

    If you take advice from the manufacturer you can be pretty sure that it will be conservative and based on testing as if you follow they're advice and it doesn't work out then its their problem not yours.

    Hi James ... point taken ... have since established from them that sub-grade is fine.
    Re "What's Enviroblock...?" see:

    Haven't as yet found anything of this type in the wider "hollow block" format ...
