Hi all, long time guest user but first post here.
We are currently having a single storey extension built. There are various private and public sewers that run under the extension with a man hole having been removed. The next obstacle is bridging this pipework for the foundations, because of how the waste exits our property and the neighbouring property a support can't be built for a lintel.
The next thing to look at would be attaching the lintel to the existing foundations, my question is what would be a compliant way of supporting the lintel? Does anyone have a suggestion that could be presented to building control as they don't want to provide guidance beyond yes/no answers.
