Day 13: Foundation walls poured

delivering the concrete for the footings

The foundation walls were poured today. The footings took 10 yards of concrete and the foundation walls required 16. That meant two cement trucks and one happy four-year-old. I'm amazed at how interesting I think the concrete work is, how the concrete guy blocks off sections where concrete shouldn't be in order to get doorways, the placement of the anchor bolts, the delivery process...

absence of concrete equals doorway

The forms get stripped tomorrow and (hopefully) the inspection of the footings and walls passes tomorrow afternoon.
