Formwork for ground beamsThe brickwork form for the beam gets a final height adjustment with a row of red bricks. This is much cheaper than using wooden formwork. It stays in place and adds enormous strength to the beams, and provides the 'plinth' that can be seen around the base of the house.

Sewage FarmNo everyone's tastiest topic for discussion. This is a correctly designed double chamber system, separating the grey water and the black water. The back yard will be raised flush with the tops of the silos and the pipes will be buried.jazzman (3 votes)

Concrete rings for sewerThese come in various sizes. These are 75cm inside dia., 50cm deep, hold 220 litres each and cost 90 baht each. Calculate ?€ x radius?² x depth, to get the volume. We use two silos of four of these rings; the silos are linked for 1st and 2nd stage processing. They will be sealed inside with bitumen paint. That gives us a total of 1,760 litres which is more than enough for a small household. Ready made glass fibre tanks of this capacity cost about 8,000 baht. Another $200+ saved!jazzman (3 votes)

?¸?Base Unit DoorsWe couldn't find a local carpenter to make these with a reasonable finninsh so we had to by factory made ones from Global House. These were the cheapest decent ones and together cost 22,000 baht. (one is a unit with three drawers, the others are just cupboard fronts). The result is a compromise between what we originally wanted and what our Thai workers could achieve. Granito floor will be laid. The blue pipe sticking up is for the floor drain.
