Fish pond construction, brick wall strengths etc.
Discussion
Hi, I've got a pond sunk 3 feet deep into the ground at the moment and the floor around it is concrete maybe 5" thick. The triangular pond measures 10 ft x 10 ft and is a bit longer on the third side. I want to add a wall 2 ft high and add maybe 18 inches of additional water. I think that a double row of bricks tied together and bonded to the concrete should be strong enough to contain the additional water but some builders don't seem to know if this is the case or not.
Does anybody know where I can check if my plans seem reasonable or doomed to failure or has anybody built a similar pond? Thanks.
