We have two activities going on in parallel – Bill Brown’s team is making the forms for the five concrete piers that will support the existing walls; and Michael Benison’s team is re-shaping the swimming pool.

Concrete Forms

The five piers that will support the I-beam that will, in turn, hold the existing walls in place need to be formed above grade. This required making the forms out of sono-tubes and building the custom rebar cages.

The City of Monte Sereno made some changes to the plans for the rebar cages.

The rebar cages need to be inspected prior to pouring the concrete above grade.

Michael’s team was at the back of the property, busy re-shaping the existing pool.
