Fill the foundation in winter

Construction is carried out not only in the warm season, but also in winter. At this time, it is very difficult to work with the ground, to dig a pit for the future foundation. The earth freezes so much that it must be warmed up, and this is unprofitable. Nevertheless, such work is carried out, and the foundation is poured successfully, you just should adhere to certain instructions.

In winter, so that the foundation is completely hardened, it is left for a maximum of a week. Nothing will work if you do not dilute the solution with chemical fillers. Most builders prefer special anti -burial additives, plasticizer. Ready -made anti -monosol mixtures are sold in the markets, from which it is easy to prepare a solution.

Still doubt about the possibility of filling the Fundamet in the winter time? Not worth it, this is a quite ordinary phenomenon with some nuances. For example, the strip foundation is required in insulation. To do this, use roofing material or polyethylene film, and everything is sprinkled with sawdust at least 5 cm on top. But from the construction of the walls it is better to refrain before the thaw. The fact is that the foundation needs time to acquire the necessary strength. There is another option — the use of heat guns. This is a special equipment used in construction for warming up an already flooded foundation. Effective method in frost conditions.
