8.24.2014

Jim spent most of the afternoon working on shoring up this corner piece.  If you compare this picture with yesterday's, you can see he actually took off the outside alignment channel and put plywood underneath, then put the alignment channel back up.  These plywood pieces extend past the forms - he's going to use them as part of the way he has to do the frames for the garage doors.


Then more steel on the inside - if you look closely on these pieces, he actually bent down the corners so they aren't as razor sharp in case someone accidentally falls into them.  Safety first - always!


Mid-afternoon he took a break and we went back to work on the waterproofing membrane.  He had to come up with a system to go around the pipe so that worked well and we were able to finish this side wall completely.


This it was time for some fun.  The back wall is where the room to work is tiny - and you have to be careful to not create more mess and dirt while you're working.  This was the area that I worked on last week getting the bottom piece done.  Today it was time to do the top pieces.


But good teamwork - we got it all done!  There's still a few more spots we have to do but we are getting close to having the freeze wall all done - then we can put the dimple board on, get it inspected and backfill!
