Frame for Footing and Redimix Cement Truck

Today we built the frame that will hold the concrete to make our footing. The forms are built from basic 2"x 8" pine and 1"x 3" strapping, and are held in place by rebar spikes. After the forms were assembled and inspected, they were ready to be poured. The building process for the forms was completed by Rob and Steve. After that, the redi-mix truck arrived and poured 6 yards of concrete to make our footing.
