Hello,
we are building a house without a basement.
On the ground floor, we have a reinforced floor slab, 25 cm thick. The masonry is in place, and the roof truss is currently being erected.
Our builder wants to apply welded membranes onto the floor slab before the electrician and the building services engineer lay their cables.
I have spoken with both; the plan was for the electrician to lay his cables first, and the other service providers to come afterward and chisel into the floor slab in the area of cable crossings so that the electrical cables lie in a small hole. However, this destroys the welded membrane, and the builder is vehemently opposed to chiseling into the floor slab.
His argument is that we have a total floor buildup of 20 cm where all the cables go without having to chisel into the concrete.
So, how do I best create the cable crossings to avoid technical problems with any trade in the end?
The procedure the installers propose is, according to their statement, common practice.
Regards
André
