On my daily activities like shown below.
Today, I got myself engaged on a pending structure which is clearly pictured below.

The foundation has been set out for about 5months ago and got to a level that it was paused because of financial problem and now we kicked off to start it again, here is the picture of the casting.

The aggregate was 1:10:8 for the beam casting.
#Ratio:
1 bag of cement
10 head pans of fine aggregate(sand) and
8 head pans of coarse aggregate (stone).
And the picture is clearly shown below as we've mixed the cement and the fine aggregate together.

Lastly is the picture of the mixture, where both the cement, fine aggregate (sand) and the coarse aggregate (stone) is above to be missed up together and that's really giving us a strong and quality mixture/ratio of a 9inch thickness which is our target.

And these was how I'm spending my day today.

Nice picture keep it up

Foundations with footplate models will usually experience a drop in level, usually this case occurs if the well is made in wet and muddy conditions. The mud under the cast will adjust to its density. By waiting for construction on it for a while, the quality of the building will be better. avoid wall cracks.
