Sketches and advices
the shelf storage in the attic - including the workshop - needs a rubber support to spread the load on the floor.
Non-slip rubber self adhesive - For our use, I think it is a good option.
The structural engineer estimated the attic allowable loading as a guideline in their drawing.
Blue Containers
- What to do with the Blue containers?
- Renting containers for 2-3 years is equivalent to buying them
- Will they be used for 7b? [Q]. To be decided, input from ABC required.
