Basement Walls

The past three days we have been putting together the basement walls. It is like a lego set. Inside the each 18 inch form we put rebar. At every seam we laced the inside of the form with wire and screwed a board on the outside. In total the height of the basement wall will be around 8 feet tall. Friday we should finish forming, bracing and plumbing the walls. Monday is the planed day to pour the concrete. The weather has been great. We need about a week more of good weather to finish the foundation work. And another two weeks to frame up the outside and get the roof on.

Wow! Looks great! They don't build them like that down south, that's for sure! Our house is made of styrofoam in some areas. It's crazy talk! Looks awesome though...they are really moving along now!
