Making the concrete<br />

slab<br />

<strong>The</strong> concrete slab is 1.2m in<br />

diameter and uses 12 litres<br />

Portland cement and 60 litres clean<br />

sharp river sand.<br />

It can be made in a special steel<br />

shuttering. Special moulds are<br />

available to make vent and squat<br />

holes. <strong>The</strong> slab is reinforced with 3<br />

– 4mm steel wire arranged in a grid<br />

formation at 15cm spaces. It is<br />

cured for at least 7 days in the wet<br />

state. This is made first<br />

whilst the pit is dug and lined with<br />

bricks
