The start of our expansion! Demolition cleared the way, and our team did an excellent job with the footing and rebar installation. Despite being close to the existing structure, the foundation pour went smoothly. We’re locked in and ready to vertical!
This project phase focused on the initial site preparation and foundation work required to extend the building footprint on multiple sides.
- Excavation and Rebar Preparation: Trenches were excavated for the new continuous footings. Grade beams and footing rebar were fabricated and tied to engineer specifications to support the new walls.
- Footing and Foundation Pour: Concrete was poured into the trenches to form the base footings. Rebar dowels were left projecting to tie into the next vertical phase.
- Slab Preparation and Pour: The existing ground was prepared and graded. New main slabs were framed, reinforced with mesh, and poured to provide a level slab-on-grade for the expansion areas. This included framing for new linear features.
