Foundation

they must be placed just so, and this often takes several men
This week the team split up and some were here at the school while others went to help another project so that we could get the cement mixer back here quicker. The progress being made here at the school was making more of the wire frames to pour the cement over. I think the ones on the ground are the foundation... maybe :) We'll see as things progress. (I'm not really up to date on my building terminology, especially this type of building). The metal frames were made, and carried over to form the foundation grid. Others were put in at the corners coming up that will be the poles supporting the building. Once these were in place they put the metal framework things in place to prepare for the cement to be poured. I think the building will start looking like a building once the cement is poured in these. More updates to come as they make more progress.
not only do they have to be in the right place, but level as well

to add the cement :)
