Cavity rising walls with stonework detail please

cman101

Hi Hoping someone on here can help me,

Im currently pricing up a job and it has 215mm natural stone . 100mm concrete block, 150mm cavity and 100mm inner concrete block. given a total of 565 external wall.

Question is what would be the most suitable technique for the rising walls as i will need 215mm deadwork to support the stone,

Would the rising walls below ground have 215mm block on flat, 100mm outer leaf ,150mm cavity and 100mm inner leaf with cavity filled up to dpc level with lean mix conc. or would it be 565mm solid the whole way up to ground level. (how would the latter be constructed and how many blocks per m2)

If anyone has a standard detail or any info would be much appricate

440 block on flat with 100 added vertical sounds right.

I'm no fan of lean mix filling myself.
