2 OUR EXPERTISE THE RIGHT BASE FOR ADJUSTABLE PEDESTALS If you want to build/create a viable and permanently reliable terrace, the condition of the subsurface significantly contributes to the success of the project and should therefore be prepared carefully in advance. If no foundations are available, we recommend to use adjustable pedestals. For a properly designed terrace construction, a load-bearing substrate made of soil, gravel, split or floor slabs is required. These can absorb arising loads in the soil. Before the substructure made of aluminium profiles or support beams are laid. · A supporting structure is required. · Appropriate preparations must be made for loose subsurface. · Stake out the planned area and remove any natural soil, such as turf, rocks and weeds. · Remove the top layer of soil that contains humus and soil-dwelling organisms in addition to inorganic substances. · If the topsoil is removed, dig out a 20–30 cm deep bed. Fill with crushed gravel or chippings and compact each layer separately to ensure a stable substrate. · Pure sands and gravels are not recommended as they are not based on the displacement of the individual grains. · Lay concrete slabs of approx. 30 × 30 cm at the same distance as the foundation. · A root control fleece underlay may need to be laid in order to inhibit the unwanted growth of roots and plants. The adjustment pedestals and system profiles can be laid as soon as a basis has been created. · If there is a risk of vibrations acting on the terrace, the patio feet should be fixed in position. Furthermore, use a screw to secure any patio feet that are exposed to high frequencies. · Here, too, a gradient of 1–2% to the garden should be considered.
