This is a good picture of all the stirrups and vertical steel inside...
And the same pilaster all buttoned up!
He's also been doing more shoring on the buttress wall.
This is the last opening that Jim got finished along with the door frame.
Here's a picture showing some of the safety features...flags on all of the posts sticking out so no one trips over them and I put up the safety rails on each of the alignment pieces.
Then Jim got the wood handrails put up on the safety rails.
Then Jim turned his attention to getting some vertical pieces of 5/8" rebar cut and placed into the front wall.
In this front section, his design calls for a vertical piece every 16" - along the side and the back, it will go to every 12". That's because there is more dirt in those areas and the rebar in the concrete ensures that the wall will hold back all those forces.
Birds eye view - looking very "busy" down there!
