2.
Foundation marked and batter boards installed with level
strings.
|
3.
Water level used to mark top of concrete on forms ( which
will later be the roof plate) |
4.
I built these forms out of 20" wide OSB, so I could later
use them as the roof plate. |
5. The
forms weren't needed! Here's the foundation after the
rebar guys removed many forms. |
| 6.
Rebar inside the trenches, professionally done. |
7.
We filled the stemwall with concrete, then added rebar
stubs ever 2' and jbolts every 6' to attach the bales. |
8.
The bales arrived in large truckloads, unloaded with a
bale squeeze into tall stacks. |
9.
Matts made sure we brought the bales down gently, so we
didn't damage them. |
10.
Matts shows me how to divide a large bale into two smaller
bales to fit against windows and doors. |
