It was so nice to hear that Kyla was coming up for the weekend to give me a hand. We really got a lot accomplished.
 |
| We started on the footings for the shop |
Between rains we almost got the footings finished by Saturday dinner time.
 |
| Kyla measuring for 16 inches and nailing cross-bracing |
 |
| Finished forms |
Then we tackled the front step footings for the last of the timber installation.
 |
| First we had to remove the temporary 2 x 6 posts |
Our big task was changing the posts to get them out of the way
 |
| Digging the holes for the foundations |
 |
| One of the boxes for concrete ready with rebar, thanks to Kyla. |
 |
| Our new split entrance |
Tomorrow I will get some rebar for the shop footings and have a visit with the engineer to approve the job. The concrete arrives on Tuesday so I'll have to be ready.
Goodnight and thank you Kyla a whole bunch.
I'm curious about some of the order of assembly items. For example, I notice the basement floor is not done and then things like these footings for the entry - I would have thought they would have happened with other footing work.
ReplyDeleteDid Tamlin provide project plan advice for sequencing and such?
