Concrete - Part II (Walls) - T -27

Today around 11 o'clock we got the second batch of concrete. This time the walls needed to be filled. The concrete was a different type - more liquid and it hardened a lot faster than the one we used for the foundation. They took 3 rounds - each time with a break of 10-15 minutes so it could get in every corner and harden a little bit before the next round to avoid air pockets in the wall which would weaken the structure.

It feels like we got a huge step closer to a house again! :)

Two rounds have already been finished here

Putting down reinforcements to stabilize the wall



Just watching someone walk they made me a little dizzy...
