The foundations take shape


A change of pace this day as the concrete was poured. The day consisted of moments of great activity and excitement when the concrete was being poured, followed by moments of calm waiting for the next 6 cubes of concrete to come. There was no rain!















The image above shows the great long arm of the pump-truck, which has an incredible 28m reach. The other pic shows Jacob, the builder, steering the tubes around the foundations (blue beanie), with me trying to be helpful (green beanie) and Baz, the concrete-pump-guy controlling the arm & flow with a box attached around his waist.
