The Great Concrete Pour of 2011

After wrapping all the pipes in foam, all the plumbing trenches were backfilled and packed. I boxed out the shower and tub drains with cardboard to allow easy access later when its time to finish them up. The concrete guys came and epoxied the rebar dowels into the existing house foundation/slab, spread some gravel and compacted everything. The inspector came and passed everything.




The next morning, the concrete crew showed up at 6AM (it was still dark out) and started the last minute work. The concrete truck arrived at 7AM and the pour commenced.









Concrete guys stripped the forms later and smoothed everything out. Framing starts tomorrow, provided I don't catch Jason's flu. Hopefully he starts feeling better quickly.
