Good Evening, I require a boundary wall to be built in 2 sections. Section A: 3m high, 50 meter long wall, bag wash plaster finish, constructed using combination of maxi-brick and cement block to increase build time and be cost efficient (Engineers drawings on hand), with reinforced foundation pad. Section B: 2.5m high, 57 meter long wall, bag wash plaster, constructed using maxi-brick. Thanks
I have an existing boundary wall that was blown over twice. The neigbouring plots of the wall are on 2 different slope gradients. The wall is 4.7 metres long and 1.8 meters above ground.

It is a 50sqm house 12.5 x 4 m with a height it about 3 meter With or without the verander which is shown in the image I will send upon request which is about 20sqm The roof is IBR sheets and using a sandstone block. Also' the foundation is using a maxi diamond that will blend with the sandstone block It is completely off-grid. So air source heat pump, 5kw hybrid solar system to increase battery capacity. Septic tank, water tank system and storage. Internal walls are metal stud drywall around the bedroom only. Aluminium windows, as per image and standard aluminium doors for the bathroom and wood door for the control room. Barn sliding door for the internal doors. For the foundation, to use polystyrene as an dpm as the floors will be screed/cement rustic vibe. Plumbing and electrical will all be on the inner of the outwalls using metal conduit for the electrical and copper for the plumbing so it's easier for labour and also rustic. The electrical on the drywall will be within the walls and those can be discussed later on. Drainage will be in the foundation to also keep us from having to life the floor to allow drainage. The entire build is first step to eventually consider building the main property at a later stage so trying to keep the costing down as much as possible while we develop the land and build funds for the main house build.
