The support walls were poured yesterday then today work began to backfill around the walls and level the ground under what will become the floor (see pictures) Next will come a layer of insulation, then the tubing for the in-floor heat, followed by re-bar and the pouring of the floor itself.
The walls are poured and the foundation is ready to backfill
APM Volunteers will be laying the insulation and in-floor heat tubing during a work weekend we currently plan for July 16th. Then Chad Howard and his crew will return to pour and finish the floor before the end of July.
Leveling the floor
At that point progress will be put on hold until after the AAA/APM Fly-in. By then we should have the bids for the masonry work (block walls) and once a contractor for that work is chosen by the APM Board, work can begin again in earnest shortly after the AAA/APM Fly-in.
