How Firm A Foundation



Much has happened since we posted last. Last Monday, February 18, we were able to get our footings poured. They sat for a couple of days while more work was being done, and then we poured the foundation on Friday, February 22. We only had to work until 11:00 Thursday night to finish getting the forms set up for the pour at 11:00 Friday morning. The weather mostly cooperated, and it only snowed a little bit while we were pouring on Friday. The building inspector said that he hasn't seen such a good job done on rebar in a long time. The guys did a great job for us.

Next we get to start stripping the forms. That will be a big job, but hopefully we can get it done quickly.
