Hello everyone,
we want to pave our driveway, but at the boundary there is a spot where I am not exactly sure how to proceed.
On one side is our property, which we will pave, and on the other side is the public green strip, on that side we would fill with soil. Does such a large pressure come from the paved area that the curb is too weak?
The load is only with cars, at least 1m distance to the curb, we will certainly not drive closer than that.
Do I need to build a wall there or is a curb sufficient? The length is about 10.5m.
I have sketched the whole thing, in both versions.
Where the recycling material is, in the already excavated foundation, it is of course compacted, we did that so that if the wall does actually come into play, when excavating we only have recycling material and can reuse it right away.
On one side I tend toward the wall, but I think with this small height difference a curb is enough.
What do you think?
What height difference can a curb compensate?
Regards Micha
