We have removed an old manure pit in the barn to be able to renovate the barn itself... wall etc. etc.
The slab is cast, and now it's time to build it up again. However, the space stretches 1.5m under the barn. What options are available here, I wonder?
Ideally, I would just like to partition it with something suitable and avoid the hassle of plastering, etc. Where the stone wall is exposed, it will be difficult to do anything other than cover it. (I will plaster and make the front side nice, but that's another matter...)
The ceiling height in this space is low, but you can stand upright. What can you put here that adds minimal height?
It has been a moisture issue, but it's drained now, and the building will become a cold building/shell.
Yes, plastering is an alternative but I'm not really keen on it... it would take a hell of a lot of mortar which costs 140kr/bag... And how do you plaster such large gaps anyway? There are big gaps between some of the stones, especially as the last picture shows.
It will be about embedding a bunch of pieces in the holes, old bricks, pieces of roof tiles, lecabitar, or whatever you have access to, so it becomes reasonably even and then plaster. Just fill the holes with mortar and insert the knotan and a little mortar on the sides so it is embedded. There might be many small pieces to fit, but you have to build out to the level, that's how the big guys do it to fill holes in walls and finally even plaster.
