All the rebar was grounded to 2-8' ground rods, 1 for each loop


And walla, fresh concrete, pumping was the only way to go and worth every penny.


My overflow for excess was to start a pad for my mech. filters after the settling tank. But It worked out perfect to the 1/4 inch. This pad is 4'x9'x11" thick.

I seem to have ordered a little more than I thought would be needed. LOL


All the concrete is fiber reinforced and was wet cured with carpet pad kept soggy wet for a week for the 4" edge and 2 weeks for the mech. filter pad.


Off with the forms. thanks to 1/4 plywood with a melaine coating and vasoline they came right off, just cut the masons twine and take out the 200 or so screws. The landscape plastic and stakes stay and they might even help hold the soil better than concrete alone


 

Beauty Eh?

The finished concrete before it quite dried out from the curing.
