How to make a cesspool

Communal services are engaged in the problems of removal and disposal of household wastewater in the city trait. In the rural area, this task is entirely and fully falls on the shoulders of the owners of suburban real estate. The hosts of large estates prefer surround septicities, some of them even establish local cleaning stations. But the dacms are better to do differently - build a structure from inexpensive or thrust materials, namely a cesspool.

Designs of drain pits

At the planning stage, it is necessary to decide on the design of the drain pit. The buildings are waterproof with the bottom or as such as the bottom is not provided. Of course, the technology of building a hole without the bottom is easier. However, it is necessary to abandon the construction of such a design if the volume of waste, which is formed per day, more than 1 cubic meter, since in this case the situation is possible when the waste and groundwater is mixed. Poams without the bottom need periodic backfill when they are filled, which reduces the useful area on the site and contributes to the spread of an unpleasant odor. Therefore, it is better to make a choice in favor of a full-fledged waterproof pit, with significant advantages in front of its predecessor.

Dimensions of cesspool

Go to the definition of the size of the structure:

Take the rate of consumption on one tenant per day. Its value is about 180 liters. Consequently, a family consisting of 3 people per month consumes about 12 cubic meters, and in this case, a pit should be planned, which has a size of 18 cubic meters.
When calculating, take into account which rocks are locked. If there are breeds that are able to easily pass the water to which the Mergel is classified, the volume of the pit will be 40% of the monthly drain. If the soil water misses the water, in particular, it concerns clay, do not forget to make a small amount of volume.
In addition, you need to take into account the distance to the surface to prevent possible transfusion of the effluents outside the pit and the appearance of unpleasant odor with constant exceeding this level. The distance should be at least 1 m.
You should also choose the right to choose the depth of the cesspool, so that it was later cleaning it. The optimal depth is the depth of about 3 m.

Choosing a place

When selecting a place where the drain pit is located, it is recommended to adhere to the system of established norms, in particular, to observe the distance from it to other objects present on the site:

to residential premises - at least 12 m;
before the fence - minimum 1 meter;
if the pit is planned without the bottom, then the distance to the sources of water supply should be at least 30 m.

Kotlovana device

So, proceed to the construction of a cesspool on its plot:

Remove the fertile layer of soil. Since it is impractical to throw it, distribute the soil in the site.
With the cream of the drain pit, the rest of the Earth is simply exported, with the exception of the 1.5 cubic meter of the soil, which will be needed subsequently on the back of the hatch lid.
We will continue to do the bottom concreting. Fall off the concrete, not forgetting it to carefully dissolve, and wait 10 days until it gains strength.
Go to creating walls by means of brickwork. Given the fact that no one will see them, you can not try to achieve the perfect quality of the construction of the walls. To increase the absorption of water into the soil, brick is stacked in a checker order, and the corners must be supplied.

Overlap of the drain pit

Having built a building for wastewater, engage in flooding:

From all sides of the cesspool, the Earth dies to create a support for the stove. Cancellation costs 20 cm.
The formwork is made from the corrugated floor, it will turn out to give the slab overlap with greater rigidity. Do not forget that the formwork needs to be done along the perimeter of the hatch.
After that, we carry out the installation of reinforcement at a distance of 10-15 centimeters, bandaging it on the crossing of the wire.
Now you can proceed to the overlap fill. The concrete is suitable, which you used in the manufacture of the floor of the drain pit. At the same time, the concrete bayonge procedure should be carried out for better filling of reinforcement.
After the fill of the concrete, it is necessary to leave the construction about a month so that it scores the strength.

Finishing work

After the concrete is frozen, it is necessary to remove the formwork and put the walls with bricks. From the outside, the surface should be placed and it is mandatory to carry out waterproofing with a bitumen to prevent atmospheric precipitation.

It remains only to make the surface of the surface above the soil, which remained after the coke of the pit. Do not forget to carefully dissolve everything. Look finally video on this topic!
