I thought I'd published photos from May of the concrete being poured into concrete blocks laid on the dam with reinforcing iron holding them in place. So here are some of those photos...
Here are some shots of the iron reinforcement being placed back in April. It looks like they scraped the ground then gave it a gravel bed with this blue screen over it.

At the top is a trough of concrete, and going down the slope you can see the various concrete blocks.
Later, more dirt put on top, then grass cloth to start grass growing (I wonder if that cloth disolves over time.

The lake and dam will look good when it is all done.
ReplyDeleteTake care, have a great day!
They will, and maybe with time it won't look so bare.
Delete...will the construction work ever be complete?
ReplyDeleteLet's see, playground - check. Dam - check. Gazebo - still missing!
DeleteIt has been quite the project.
ReplyDeleteAnd apparently whatever leaks they found had been pluged up before I got on the scene.
DeleteI find the machines they use to work on the project interesting. Can you imagine someone thinking and developing these things, it's amazing.
ReplyDeleteThey sure are amazing!
DeleteHow interesting to see how it was built. Thank you for the great photos.
ReplyDeleteI may have missed a few steps, when I went away for a bit. But this is the gist of things!
