Construction Progress, April 9, 2009

The entire site has been cleared of brush, weed trees and debris.  The site is currently being rough graded to re-contour the site for the future parking lot and building locations.  About half the site has been proof-rolled.  This is the process by which heavy machinery compacts the topsoil to prepare a stable, dense sub-base which will receive paving for roads and parking lots.

Building 1000 – The crawl space has been excavated and the piers have been drilled, filled with rebar and poured with concrete.  The concrete is setting but formwork for the first floor support columns will commence early next week.  The mud slab which will form the crawl space floor will be poured early next week.

Building 2000 – The crawl space has been excavated and the first piers are being drilled today.  Pier drilling and setting will continue for the next week until completion by next Friday.

Building 3000 – The crawl space has been excavated and all the piers have been drilled, filled with rebar and poured with concrete.  The concrete has set sufficiently enough that formwork for the first floor support columns has begun. The mud slab which will form the crawl space floor will be poured tomorrow.

Building 5000 – The building foundation has been excavated to the proper depth.  Select fill will be brought in from the detention pond excavation site and compacted in a series of lifts next week.  After that, piers will be drilled into the select fill late next week.

Building 9000 – The building foundation is being excavated.

The site development permit will be approved late next week.  After approval the City of Round Rock will release us to begin pouring concrete in the formwork for the first floor support columns above the pier caps at all buildings, such that concrete construction will begin to rise above grade.  Utility trenching will also begin.
