Placing Concrete In Beams -- Deepening The Basement -- ANAND Enterprises Project KouR1J1201


Since we are working in a very confined area in the basement, it took a good deal of planning and coordination between Miko and his crew and the ready-mix concrete supply driver to get the concrete from the alley to the beams in the basement. The concrete was place in the beams on the East side farthest away from the alley and then finishing the day with the beams on the West side. Miko is going to form the wall piers on Jan-31-2013 and the plans are to place concrete in the wall piers on Feb-01-2013.
