Reinforcing rods/ pouring concrete

• Cut steel rods 600-800mm lenghts.
• Use strong wire to construct a cross within a square.

• Concrete truck pours concrete into wheel barrows.
• Half the anchor pile boxing is poured when the reinforcing square/cross rods are placed.
• The anchor pile boxing are fill just over the top.
• The anchor pile boxing is hit by hammers and a wooden staff is thrusted up and down within the concrete to prevent the honey comb effect from air bubbles.
• The concrete is leveled out by shedding with a wooden trowel.
• Brent rods are placed in each opposite corner to be later craned lift from the contruction site.
• Concrete has a cure rate of 28 days. Light work can begun within a couple days of pouring.

• Clean down all bracing 100 by 50mm timber for later reuse.

• Clean down all tools and wheelbarrows used to prevent damage.

 Reinforcing rods are placed halfway during the concrete pour to insure strenght and flexibility of the anchor pile.
