 November 20th, 2013Today the footings are being formed, inspected, and poured. The concrete work is done by Lee Rocca Forming Ltd out of Oakville. The crew started the work late around 11:15AM because in typical Toronto style they are stuck in traffic on the QEW. I’ve scheduled the inspection with the inspector for 2pm and I wasn’t sure if they can make it on time. But the 5 men crew is very efficient, by 1:30pm, the form is done, and rebars are all placed.
November 19th, 2013Surveyor is here this morning to set the pins for the footings. Here you can see the corner of the foundation wall is set and they’ve also set some pins for the columns that will support my steel post.
November 18th, 2013Today, Tony’s and his main man Joe works on excavating the basement. They’ve brought a laser and a laser receiver so they can make sure the floor of the excavation is level. Excavation had to be done carefully since we want the foundation to be sitting on undisturbed soil. So you don’t want to accidentally dig too deep. Here’s a time-lapse sequence of the excavation. November 16th, 2013Today Rashid Shouli (Richard) from AMX Steel delivered the steel plates and anchor bolts that we will need for the foundation walls. The anchor bolts will be set into the foundation wall piers when the concrete is pours and the plates will be put on the bolts. Later steel posts will be welded onto these plates and installed and bolted down.
I have 8 steel post in total. So I have 8 plates, and 32 anchor bolts in total. So here’s what one set of them looks like.
November 15th, 2013Today the surveyor from Land Survey Group came to stakeout for excavation. Here they are determining one of the points where they will set a marker to mark the area that needs to be dug up.
