Stripped the forms up at the saphouse.

The forms held great and the mono pour of wall and upper deck where storage tanks set came out great. The boxed out section is where the drain pipes from the storage tanks come out. The 4" step up in the wall compensats for height diff in the two storage tanks. One more small pour around the raised pad for the tank support and the concrete work will be done. I got the steel framework to support the 1550gal. nurse tank about done. Hope to get in paint tomarrow.

Looks great. Seeing that deck done in a single pour reminds me of when we had a cement crew pour a reinforcement wall to sure up a stone wall on a 100 year old barn. As the truck finished dumping 9 yards of concrete the forms broke and put the whole load in a pile on the feeding floor. The contractor cursed like a drunken sailor and jumped in his truck and left. We never saw him again. He didn't even come back to pick up his tools. I was out picking corn when the landlord on that farm came flying across the corn field in his old pickup wondering if there was a place to use 9 yards of concrete before it set up. That mud hole at the base of the pit silo has never been a problem since. There is no replacement for competence.
 
That sure looks nice! Is there going to be a lot of extra room in the saphouse now with just one evaporator or is that nurse tank getting that extra space? John
 
Yes that wall did turn out nice. The steel frame your building does that go inside or outside of the saphouse??
