I want to build a return joining the inner wall on existing house tieing in some of the block

I am propsing to leave the furfix and butt concrete block to it but as it will be the back side of the furfix whats the best method to tie the block to the new extension inner wall containing this furfix system.

So in otherwords join the end of a block to a aircrete block containing the furfix. The horizontal pointing lines will be different heights.

it looks to me like an extension has been added to a building using a wall starter as a connection from new to existing.

then, the existing building has been removed at this particular junction.

what should have happened is the existing building should have been removed and bonded with the new from dpc level upwards, not cobbled in after.



probably.


it is a little bit confusing.
 
For tieing into the thermalites, use a helical tie and knock these in where required in line with the bed joints of the new work - no need to match/level the courses.

Or block bond the new work

Why has that cavity been cut out in the last picture? There was no need to do that - and it looks like you have created your problem unnecessarily and introduced a weak point into the wall as well.

Edit

And it looks like the soffit/verge has crossed the property boundary too, for which you would require permission from the neighbour

is it really so every thermalite block which was layed you layed 6 flittons , what a muppet you are :LOL:
 
read this as i will type it slowly.

you can mix bricks with block on the external skin.

builders do it all the time where a lean-to roof is butting over a garage. they will use blocks then go back to bricks where the roof ptches just above the lead chase.

go back down the pub numpty. :rolleyes:
