An elevated floor pour!

This was a "sane" pour for a 11x 22 floor pad which we used 12 bodies to do. It is nothing here to see 30-40 guys doing a pour, especially if it is being mixed on the ground in stead of a machine.

Everyone has their job, loading the mixer, running the mixture,.
 running it up a ladder to the roof, dumping and troweling......
and if you live in the neighborhood, chances are you'd be here.

This is early in the day......by the end, these guys will be covered in slop from bailing up the ladder.

The guy in the blue shirt is Ti-YaYa and he's good at directing this stuff as well as finishing


String line preset for a level pour. 
That block pit rarely gets full because these guys have it flying up the ladder.

Three pours, $12K,  over 1400 square feet......about 900 sq ft more, hopefully done before Christmas!
The new ceiling/floor over the main entry......space above for bedrooms!
Rough coat on ceiling finished today in the chapel/classroom......smooth coat by Friday.......kids in very dry area for sleeping Saturday!  Praise God, we have finally got great shelter from the rain!
These guys are working hard and it's really looking good!
