We are wating to convert this to a habitable room and are going to brick

same depth
Short answer - ask your BCO.
Ours are generally very helpful and once you've paid the upfront charge they
will come out as many times as you like to look at stuff and tell you what
is O.K. by them.

Thanks for all the answers, I was thinking of sticking some 1/2 inch rebar into the old foundation and then pouring the concrete in to a few inches above the old concrete strip. Hopefully the rebar would look the concrete together.
What do you think.
