In this thread, it is very clear how "one-sided" opinions are represented here. One might think that most garages should be built without a slope "because it is not needed." But it strongly depends on the structural conditions and the adjacent terrain, etc.

Example:
If the floor is relatively "smooth" and "even" (industrial coating, tiles, etc.), then the water will indeed follow a slope. It is good if this slope is deliberately directed towards the exit (gate, drain) and not towards a wall (e.g. due to an unintended slope when installing the floor/coating).


But it very much depends on the structural conditions, e.g. the type of masonry. A bare Poroton wall always looks too much like an unfinished shell and therefore "incomplete." Plaster can conceal flaws in the masonry, create a great appearance, posters can be attached more easily, etc.

Well, a bare KS or brick wall also looks like a shell construction. So what? I don't lay my electrical cables surface-mounted there either, and my car/bike/motorcycle hasn't been bothered by it so far. ;) However, I have to admit that it fits the picture when I look at the proportions of house size to garage size in many construction projects here. Enough OT ...

Ours is also plastered inside, one side and the ceiling. Garage in the basement, but outside the thermal envelope. So insulation and then plastered. ;)

Yes, why not… As mentioned, garage in the house and therefore definitely more than just a parking space for the gas guzzler.

Dear people,

I am currently, or rather still, dealing with the issue of slab with or without strip foundations.

In the meantime, I had relied on several statements that it should work fine without strip foundations. For this purpose, the ground is practically prepared and drainage pipes have already been laid where the foundation would otherwise go.

Now I hear some voices from the surroundings saying that the slab should "definitely" be placed on foundations. hm :(

Regarding the facts or my previous understanding:

1. Under the garage (4.5 x 7.5 m), about 40-50 cm of RC is currently installed/compacted, which also serves as a capillary-breaking layer.

2. On the left and right of the planned garage, there are buildings with corresponding foundations (frost protection provided from these sides!?)

3. The garage stands decoupled from the buildings

4. Slab 20-25 cm with proper reinforcement, without strip foundations, should be fine, right?

What do you think? :)

It should be absolutely fine, but only a geologist can answer that for sure.
