Lower Basement Walls








 
WE NOW HAVE WALLS!
Over the past few weeks, they've been putting up the ICF (insulated concrete forms...aka "walls") and pouring the concrete.  It's been fun watching the big cranes come in.  These walls measure 10'8" and create our sub-basement "Sport Court".   The south and east walls have double rebar since they will be 20' walls when complete.  The other walls just have one row of rebar.  Notice the scaffolding in the first photo and the orange ladder in the last photo.  It 's a 20' ladder and the only way in/out of the building.  Jeff and the kids love the adventure, but Doti sure is a nervous nelly...definitely afraid of heights!
