It was extremely busy today as we are preparing to backfill our excavation and getting ready for our final shoot of shotcrete on Thursday, April 30.

Our project site is extremely cramped due to the OSHA cuts that were excavated for the front and back concrete foundation retaining walls.  Since these foundation walls are now to strength, we can backfill and compact the soil to fill the excavation.  This will provide much-needed real estate at the front of the project site.

The decision yesterday to complete the feature concrete wall in the dining room required additional scaffolding and accelerating part of the schedule.

It is all good.
