The foundation was poured and left to rest over night before Storstad's crew came back to strip the wall forms down.
They worked hard and fast to strip the forms on the north side of the house first so Percy Johnson, 801-318-7111, could damp proof that side of the house first before the holiday began the next morning. Percy began damp proofing at 4:00 pm to get his portion done, even though he was leaving town later that evening. Nice job.
Also coming to the job site late in the day was Stone Pro Slingers, 801-602-8785, who sent a gravel truck out at 4:00 pm to fill the garage basement and cold storage floors with pea gravel. We wanted to pour those floors first thing Friday morning ahead of the other basement slabs in preparation for I-beams and b-decking to be put in as the suspended garage floor next week. Stone Pro Slingers were an important piece in the string of details needing to run like clockwork. One piece missing, and it would cause a domino effect on everybody coming up the line.
Dean arrived right on time, and did the best with what he could. We had miscalculated how much gravel we would need, and came up short. The gravel pit was closed so finishing the job would have to wait until Friday morning -- right before the concrete was scheduled to be poured. Timing was going to be tight, but Stone Pro Slingers pulled through and were there ahead of schedule Friday morning to finish up both garage basement floor and the cold storage floor. The slabs were poured and ready to cure over the weekend.
