weekend construction
The weekend went alright in terms of construction. The fires sort of delayed my work since my main access to school was cut off; but I am only a few hours behind schedule!

On friday i built my topo and I terminated my footing calculations in the early evening , but could not proceed with the excavation until prof. Gery had them checked off.

I was able to start and complete excavation on saturday.

On Sunday morning I poured my caissons and footings with the help of Eddy.
After that, I spent most of my time helping other students, while waitning for my concrete to dry.
