Shuttering

wclarke20

Planning on building a poured concrete wall for a crush in the next month.
Any idea on where you can hire shuttering in the North East?
Hard to find places that hire them out. Any idea of prive either?

thanks.

How big is the wall? If it's not to big and you can't get shutters you could try sum formwork with plywood ect it's handy annof.

Up to recently it wasn't worth hiring pans as the subbies who had them were working at such keen rates. Very few places hiring out pans in general. Closest to me is forty miles away, that I know of.

Lawlors Brownstown navan used to hire them out, not sure if they do anymore.

I previously got a quote of Siteserv Dublin office (01) 6011500. I ended up getting a contractor to do it in the end but Siteserv seemed very helpful

must give them a call. Looking at putting up a precast wall in a "U" shape for holding and loading dung.

Would be handy for a crush wall also

Why would you put a U in a place for dung? Wouldn't that be fierce awkward when it came to loading it afterwards?
Would a corner you can drive into with a loader be a better job?

I made a few large pans out of 6x2 and plywood. 16x6 in total and enough to do 64ft of wall. Uses same whirly bar sleeves cones plates and nuts as the steel pans. Make a few of your own and you'll have them forever. 2 companies on DD supplying accessories.

Sheeted gates would be a bit dangerous on a windy. I thought they weren't allowed anymore! Just saying

Mesh on the gates might be another option, it's what we have on our slurry tank gate.


speaking of regulations........ what's your plan for capturing and storing the runoff from the dungstead?


nitrates requires it to either be roofed or the runoff piped to a slurry tank with the relevant capacity to store rainfall for that area
