Mud (the good kind)










Payne construction worked over the weekend to have the rebar in place to pour concrete in the surge pit today. The pit holds all the water that is displaced by bathers and is basically a big concrete tank. At 20" thick, the slab took several truck loads to lay down. All placed by a pump truck with a boom remote controlled by the guy standing on the left edge of the pit.

Nice to finally see some concrete going in. The main pool will have bar laid down this week and the slab will be poured late this week hopefully along with the foundation for the building. Things should go pretty fast after that according to project manager Nathan Payne. At least rain and groundwater won't be so much of a worry once the slabs are in.
