Last ICF update before the pour

A productive week.  The ICF construction phase is almost complete.   We ran into a slight snag yesterday where we ran out of the green ties that hold the ICF panels together.  Unfortunately the building supply store doesn't stock them, but they were able to arrange for me to pick them up from Quadlock.   In Surrey BC.  About a 75 minute drive + the fun of border crossing, but it beat waiting until next Thursday for them to be shipped across the border.

The ICF build out should complete on Monday, there is just a little work left along the top row and then complete the garage buck outs.  If no other issues pop up we should be ready for inspection on Tuesday and hopefully pouring the cement on Wednesday.   The next set of pictures will have a cement truck in them.

Almost there. Back wall is complete.  A few rows left on the front and putting in the garage door buck outs and it will be ready.

back wall. 55 feet long and 9 feet 4 inches high.  Ready for concrete

West wall.  Bracing in place and one of the window buckouts.
Looking up for the street
