Olympic
The length of an Olympic building is always 200mm longer than the side panels used, e.g. a building
having 2 no. 1m panels in each side and 1 no. 1.5m panel at each end has the dimensions
2200mm x 1500mm
Base Requirements
The minimum base size required is equal to the overall building size. Assuming no suitable existing
surface, the base should be a minimum of 125mm concrete on to well consolidated hardcore.
The concrete should be of minimum C20/25 grade in accordance with BS8500 Concrete: The
Complementary British Standard to BS EN 206-1.
The base should be flat, level and square, and preferably be raised slightly above the surrounding
ground level.
Base Fixing
Base fixing (by our customers) is accomplished using the expanding anchor bolts supplied. Refer to
the base fixing instructions supplied with the fixings for correct installation in accordance with the
manufacturer’s recommendations.
Finally, apply an external mastic seal to the perimeter of the building.
