12mm is fine? Always resist the urge to talk without proper thinking.
12mm is the minimum standard as long the septic tank is reinforced with maybe columns and chain beams.

You don't worth my reply but next time try to resist the urge to show yourself without thinking.

I asked if car will be park on it.

Please give your advice Mr Civil engineer. Is it 10mm or 16mm?

Your Soakaway dimension depends on the numbers of users while your method of construction depends on your soil type but I prefer to have top and bottom slabs.
Here's one we did for 6 flats of 2bedroom apartment
(24 users) with cars parking on it
Size: 4.0 x 2.75x3.0m deep.

The slab, beams and columns were designed to support vehicular load. So we made the slab 200mm thick while the perimeter and internal beams were 450mm deep.

Various sizes of iron rebars were used from Y10mm for the links, Y12mm for the slab & beams and Y16mm for the beams and columns. In total, 42 lenghts of steel were used.

The blocks were 9inches and about 400 nos were used. The holes in the blocks were filled with lean concrete.

Good evening everyone.. I am also making plans for soakaway.....will have cars parked on it... How will it go? I mean, how many feet deep? What is the best suitable dimension? Should I make a separate slot for waste water or just don't cement a part of the soakaway so it can absorb the water from beneath? What materials and quantity of materials will I need for setting and casting? How much should I budget? I'd really love to have these informations so I can start making plans for it..

Will car park on it?

1:4:4
1 bag of cement to 8 sand and 8 granite of headpan. If you want to be economical then make it 9 sand and 9 granite.
12mm is fine.
1:4:4 for RCC concrete that will most likely be subject to load is not advisable. I recommend 1:2:4 mix ratio.

Even though most builders prefer to use 12mm for septic tank reinforcement and this has become a norm everywhere; however you can't call it a standard, arranging your reinforcement using a structural design is the normal standard that should be encouraged. I have seen homeowners even some engineer sef constructing a duplex without a structural design.

Very very important.

4ft by 5ft will do if the rooms are in suit but if not, don't border.

thanks for this.. someone gave me a job to design an affordable luxury 2bedroom apartment n am try to see how to add those necessary luxury stuff as the apartment would be sold individually. I will drop the plan here for review when I'm done tomorrow.

Good evening my people, so I just want to advice people on here not to make the mistake I made with pop, always ensure to choose your designs and have a solid conclusion, I’m not satisfied with my pop designs as I just let them do their thing.. however we move.

Please what do you guys think of this pop staircase bar design ? Boring in my option but then.. what can I do to bring it to live ? Someone suggested putting glass inside the boxes ?

Note: interior painting hasn’t been done, just screeding.

Inputs will be appreciated, thanks

Don't put glass, it's not necessary, it's actually not bad, perhaps it looks boring to you because it's a smaller space & kinda secluded. Once the lightings are done, you'd get to like it. However you can do decorative painting on it.
