This video documents the process of excavating and laying out the footings for a house foundation. The crew uses a laser level to ensure all footings are dug to the proper depth. They mark out the footing locations, dig with an excavator, and square up the corners by hand. Reinforcing rebar is cut and bent into shape. Grade stakes are installed to lay out the wall locations. Some footings need extra soil removed to properly center the walls. By catching errors in the layout, extra work is avoided. Once the footings are fully excavated, the site is prepared for laying the concrete.

Wow, what an opportunity to have a client with his own excavation/earthworks company. Not only do you have experts doing all of the very complex earthworks and footing for that incredibly complex house layout (even clearing out all the soil to get it our of your way), you get to watch and learn sooo much from true pros! Man...if you could even find that kind of training somewhere you couldn't afford to put your entire crew through the training. What a gift. That apprentice is truly getting his summer's worth of learning and experience! And of course you're building a relationship with someone who will be an amazing contact for both subbing out complex jobs to and consulting with on excavation and footing jobs you're doing yourselves. What an exciting project. That house with that view is going to be absolutely amazing...

FYI, next time you want to see if something fits, place a 4x8 sheet on the ground and do an aerial photo with your drone. Then you can photoshop that known dimension around to see if it all fits before you set pins and such. This helps on uneven terrain as all you have to do is make sure the face of the 4x8 sheet is level.

Having just dug my own footings recently for the first time I can really appreciate watching a pro work. It's one thing to understand what needs to happen, it's a completely different thing to get the machine to do it, and then a whole other level to get it to do it smoothly and efficiently.

I know they don't 'make' him and would all gladly do it themselves, but he always seems willing and is just so much more capable. He brings a lot to the site with his strength and spirit lol. Just in case you're not aware, he does have his own channel you can check out where he does his own projects with his wife as well as behind the scenes of PBB projects.

99% of our houses are slab on grade here in Phoenix, Arizona. We just drop our grades on the outside of buildings, patios are poured 4-6” lower than top of interior slab, grading drops a couple inches off of that. We mostly have stucco though, so as long as the weep screed is not buried we dont have to worry as much. Very dry climate as well. In most buildings this ends up as having 6- 12” of stem wall or side of the slab (if monolithic) showing above grade before you hit weep screed for the stucco. As long as the grade flows away from the house we rarely have issues.

As an ex-builder here in Oz, we always used lime for mark outs. Even if it got wet it was still easily visible (not sure if Johno would survive lime though🤣) I sure miss my building days & even though I am near retirement (& currently unemployed) I've been considering pulling the nail bag back on even if it is just part time building maintenance. Been looking forward to this build since seeing the plans, I love different stuff! 👍

@thepagan5432 4 месяца назад

Looks like a BIG house. In the southern UK, most footings have to be 3 feet / 1 metre deep. I was managing my friends non-conforming building repurposing. The contractors were there for 4 days and I dismissed them, for only going down 1 foot to avoid them moving a drain. Daft thing was they put a piece of wood panelling over it in an attempt to hide it. Once again in the UK we had to check the noise on our gearboxes, using a sound meter. At that time we had to be 1.5 metres from the gearbox to record the noise level. Take care and be safe 👍

Jamie, not unheard of. Down in south Florida everything is CMU unfortunately in the older house it’s either plaster or just 3/4 strips up the cmu on the interior for drywall. Some new houses will be kind enough to put the treated furring strips along with the treated 1x6 down low so you have something to nail into.
