gaza 504 Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 I’m sh*t with anything like this. I know it’s easier to get a fixing into concrete because tarmacs brittle but can I do it with mechanical fixing or do I have to use resin for tarmac? Got 6 post brackets with 11mm holes, didn’t get the fixings with brackets. If can do it with through bolts am I using a 10mm sds drill bit and m10 bolt or 10mm hole and [BANNED TEXT] bolt so bolt fits easy then tightened up with washer and bolt.

ollieollie 766 Posted March 3, 2021 Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 Imo depends what your using it for? If it’s a structure(kennel/shed etc) the stability from the building might just get you away with it. If it’s a fence forget it, hole and concrete is the only way to go, the tarmac won’t give a good hold for bolts Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gaza 504 Posted March 3, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 Yeah fencing mate, thanks for the reply. Even if using the resin that I’ve seen? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ollieollie 766 Posted March 3, 2021 Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 I doubt it’d last long mate, a 10mm threaded bar resined into hardcore or even soil dependent on how deep you go just won’t hold what is essentially a big wind sail, also you find the bottom of the post/fixings gives way when using this method 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
