Basement walls are poured

It took some time but we finally have basement walls. It took 6 concrete trucks which provided enough concrete to allow them to do a continuous pour. This prevents getting cold joints in the concrete. The concrete is poured to around 2" below the top of the form.





It took me a minute to figure out why this cavity was left in the wall but it is for the crawlspace access, our house is approximately 3/4 basement with 1/4 being above a crawl space.
