The drainage system under the slab and around the perimeter of the foundation was quite a project to put in.
Ruby thought she needed to help pack down the gravel over the drainage system. Indispensable help to the contractors, I'm sure.
Below is the same corner Ruby was checking out at the end of the day today. The corner form is set up, and the sump pit access is capped off.
The Firm Foundations crew was not happy about the state of the rebar when the excavation / drainage crew finished their work, but they got them straightened out in the morning and got the corner and a few of the side pieces up this afternoon. Next steps are to put the rest of the exterior forms up, then put in the window forms, then install the mesh reinforcement and additional rebar that will strengthen the concrete walls, and finally put the interior forms in place. They think they'll be ready to pour walls next week, which is a bit later than I had originally been told, but that's not a huge surprise...
