Walls and crawl space skim coat

Walls were set on Thursday June 27th and poured poured Friday June 28.  Picked up an extra day or so due to pouring the skim coat at the same time as the walls.  Water, power, sewer pipes were placed under the footings prior to the wall pour.  The radon gas pipe and radon gravel from Bearishoff was placed Friday morning and the slab was sealed with 6 ml poly, acoustic seal caulking and tuck tape.  Once the walls were poured, the final truck delivered the extra cement for the floors. On the holiday Monday July 1st the boys will be hard at work stripping the forms and prepare the top plates for the floor joists and sub floor for Tuesday.

Footings

The footings and rebar were set on Monday June 24, poured Tuesday June 25 Stripped Wednesday June 26

Excavation

Excavation was started on June Thursday June 20 with the Hitachi 200 excavator.  I was fooled by the lay of the land and the proposed location of the home, thinking it was more like a 4-6 foot change in elevation.  The actual change in elevation resulted in bringing up the rear footings of the house by 7 ft and dropping the entire front area of the property by over 4ft.  Hauled nearly 50 truck loads of gravel packed with a 66" ride on vibrating packer, super solid foundation.
