Foundation Notes-
- Rebar chairs allow bending up towards center, making rebar too close to surface at center of slab. Remedy:
- Use twisting tool for tying rebar.
- Rent bender (weekly rate) and cutter for rebar.
- Used soil cement to create sharp edges on upper interior trench.
- Covered 100 % with 15mil underlayment requires UFER to be placed outside of trench or separate driven rods.
- Make sure anchor bolts are placed properly during pour. They will need to be adjusted as pouring will move them.
- Problem: When setting anchor bolts for HDU they were set too low. The HDUs requires bolts to be projected about 4.5 inches. Width of sole plate plus another 1.5 inches for HDU mechanism and at least. 5 inches for bolt.
Framing Notes:
- Make sure walls are plumb before adding sheathing.
- Cuts at 3.56 degrees for upper walls.
- Use wall jacks to lift walls.
