External True LineAn external true line is used to indicate the target external edge of the to be poured columns. This line should square up the same as the initial check did. dozer

Column Form WorkThe form wood utilized is two sizes, 10 inch and 8 inch to create a column size approximated 8 inches square (which is 20 centimeters). You often see them nowadays going with 15 centimeter columns with minimized rebar (on other projects) which just doesn't have the durability, leads to structural cracking and worse.dozer

Form Work for Column PourNote that the columns forms are trued using a plumb bob and then locked into place using diagonal 2 x 3 inch wood members. Due to limitations in the amount of form wood, the columns were poured at two different times.dozer

Lightweight Aerated BlocksThese light weight aerated blocks are 7.5 centimeters thick and 60 centimeters long and 20 centimeters wide. It is a wonderful material to use in construction of a house based on the column/pier system. dozer

Tureing with the Plumb BobHere is a plumb bob in action. The form work is being trued. dozer

Laying Aerated BlockAerated blocks are not mortared in a convention sense. They are basically glued together (using the designated product) and kept secure by tying them into the columns with 6mm rebar which has been drilled into the column. A groove is cut in the block to hold the rebar in place. dozer

Keeping the Structure WetSlow drying concrete has the best strength characteristics and will develop structural cracks less often. Here water is being sprayed to the top of the columns to ensure slow, smooth drying. dozer

Ring BeamA ring beam is run horizontally around the entire structure below the window openings. Here we see the beam frame work in place. dozer

Ring Beam Form WorkThe form work for the horizontal ring beam is made of plywood. Notice 9mm rebar strips are used to ensure that the form work doesn't deform during the pour. dozer

Floor Structure with Damp CourseThe floor rebar is spaced at 20 centimeter intervals and red bricks are used as spacers. The damp course material is a heavy thick black plastic which is hard to find. It is more durable and resistant to tearing. The normal clear plastic is problematic and should be avoided. Of course, any damp course is better than no damp course!dozer

Concrete Samples for Compressive TestThe floor and foundation are poured using CPAC 280 steng (which equates to 280 ksc or 280 kilograms per square centimeter of compressive stregth). The slump is 12 - 14 centimeters which is on the dry side for extra strength. The samples will be further analyzed at the factory and a report certification sent. dozer

Floor + Ground Beam PourThe concrete being poured also has a water proofer as a double protective factor to ensure the damp course. The ground beams and floor is being poured. The floor pour is 10 - 12 centimeters. dozer
