picking up little pieces of foam, not shoving trash into walls when building or burying trash, making sure things are done neatly and straight. it all counts. I replaced my septic to tank pipe last week and I found an old t-shirt and a styrofoam cup inside the block wall.

The truck is weighed entering the yard using a scale and the same one after. The weight added is the amount of gravel paid for. At least at the ones I've been to.
@michaelplaysminecraft90402 жыл бұрын
as mentioned by Ramit "most" places use a scale as you leave and enter the store. On the newer wheel loaders they use the presure in the cylinders to measure the weight. Basically they know that an emptey bucket cause x bars (of presure), then you measure it when its loaded, that'll be x bars + weight of load. subtract the two you get actual load weight

Peel and Stick will always wrinkle and as you say make access points for moisture. The coefficient of expansion for the substrate, the adhesive, the concrete and the alumininum, not to mention the concrete dust all are different and all work over time to cause it to wrinkle even if it was laid flat and true. I used it in several applications and saw it happening. On the roof deck it lasted less than a season and wrinkles appeared all over the 700 sq. ft. Any imperfections in the substrate (and who has perfect conditions on any job?) will also cause it to not bond properly. I do have to say that Grace Ice and Water Shield performed excellently if applied as directed and perfectly flat also in its flashing version but these are underlayments not in standing water as can happen with a foundation even for a few days (snow thaw for one). So I agree that a liquid membrane is best for basements and footings. Looking good. I would suggest a fence post puller (used with steel fence posts) for pulling your stakes. They are cheap and you will be using it a lot in your business. Keeps the bending to a minimum. Also a square edge hoe for peeling the foam off the footing wall joint? As I get older I always look for ways to reduce bending over.

Love the way you waterproofed your basement. Personally I think that should be done, automatically on any new house build, and wish that had done it with our when they built it in 1997, since our house, and the one next door was built over a natural spring. Every time we get a heavy rain, our Sump pump goes off. Look forward to the next video, Figure you won't be able to move in til possibly next fall??

Maybe it's just me but backfilling against the basement there feels like a HUGE step forward on your build there... ties everything together real nice. Last time I had to dig up my water line to my well house I ran some 4" conduit and ran my water line and power through that. Not sure if that's technically to code or not but I figure the direct bury cable I used should hold up fine. Hopefully I never have to mess with it again, but if I do I should be able to pull a new water line/power through the conduit without having to dig everything up again. Looking forward to the next episode!
