July 2007: Digging the Basement 7/31

The house was plotted in a difficult way to stake out. The builder and the foundation engineer spent 4 hours investigating how the plot was supposed to be. Finally they made progress in staking after having the floor engineer add more information to the drawing so that they could properly lay it out.

This was the first scoop of the dirt.

The weather was really hot and it was very dusty everywhere. At the end of the day, six hours to be exact, there were two big pile of dirt on the lot .......

and next to it, there was a big hole in the ground!

Here is the garage floor.
