3rd Section of driveway being prepared - day 4

Today was the final prep day for the 3rd section of driveway.  Grates had to be installed before the concrete gets poured tomorrow. The first set of pictures below show the top part of the driveway which will be done at a later time.

The prep work for the 3rd and final section of driveway is complete. It's now ready to be poured on the 7th Jan 2013. Pete and his team have done an impressive form work design, maximizing the use of the very tight space there at the kerb.  It's going to look great!

Today involved preparing for section 3 of the driveway, forming up and cleaning up the completed sections of driveway (steel bars protruding) with a grinder.

Today was all about removing the formwork from the previous section poured on wednesday and forming up the last section of driveway to be done early in January. Pete's tried to use as much space as possible in the very narrow section we have there near the kerb.

Today was another success story in this project. Another massive slab of concrete was layed (16.2cm3) worth - down the sweeping curve of the driveway.  The boys did a great job. The next slab will be the last section down to the kerb and we'll have to wait 2 weeks until the concrete company reopens after the christmas holiday break. As far as progress goes, we hit all our targets before christmas - well done Team!
