I'm extending this brick base patio out along the red line, the floor is concrete but it slopes down by about two bricks high.
What's the standard method to get this done?
A few tiers of concrete foundations like pictured or something I've not thought of.

what the hell is a b c?
just get it leveled with 2 steps, or 3 like u did

I needed the dimensions, not my patio.
>>1062859
what? why need the dimensions if it is not your patio?

That's the pic I sent to the person whose patio i'm extending. So I could figure quantities.

what is c made of?
a is concrete?
so you want it to go all the way to b?
>>1062869
a b and c are all dimensions i wanted..

so you just want to lay bricks on concrete on a slope? and you dont care if it is level?

you could build a frame out of lumber for the stepping system, back fill with road crush and tamp with a vibrapacker.
Better yet would be to forget building steps and just build a frame with lumber that would level out to the original patio, back fill that with road crush and lay the bricks on top of that foundation. If you want to get fancy put some sand on top of the road crush and level the sand before laying the bricks. This would probably less expensive in both materials and labour.

Or frame 2x4 and build a concrete/brick/cinder block wall, backfill and either lay concrete slab or lay out sand and do a brick lay.
