The footprint for the building has been dug out, filled, tamped and compaction tested.
Yesterday, 3rd grade students designed a house that wouldn’t blow away in the “wind” for science. Today, we had our contractor, Clint, come in and explain how foundations/footings, anchor bolts, studs, roofs, etc. all go into building a structure that doesn’t blow away in the wind! Everything is connect so that foundation keeps us in place! We’re loving all the real life learning with this construction on site! Next week we can hopefully see the actual footings for this new construction!
