The finished walls after the pour


My side door all framed out. We may have head room issues with this door when it is finished because of a wind brace that goes down at a 45 degree angle in this corner. I won't know for sure until the barn goes up.



Mark Cordell supervising the pour.



The finished wall. Notice the tie down bolts that are every 4 feet around the perimeter. A sill plate (2X10) will be on top of the wall, held down by these bolts.



This is the front of the barn and it steps down 16 inches so that I can put stone in and 6 inches of concrete. There will be a bay to the left that will be my shop and the bay on the far right will be for storage. The two center bays will hold construction trailers.
