It has been a long, miserable, wet winter. As you can now see the foundation is poured, forms are stripped and the foundation is back-filled. It took me forever to get the floor up to grade and compacted.
New bathroom will go here.
I got the fill all compacted and leveled out.
I laid down 2in rigid foam insulation too keep the floor from feeling to cold. I hope it works. I put grade stakes in the middle of the floor and established a wet screed. Then I screeded from each side. This time my screed board was only about 8' long. It was a much better way than using a longer screed like when I poured my garage.
7 cubic yards in 1 day. I had two helpers and myself. It almost killed me but at the end of the day the slab is done and I am extremely satisfied by the outcome. The only way I could have gotten a smoother finish would have been to rent one of those helicopter trowels. The floor is going to be getting tile so the concrete finish isn't that critical.
