Getting the Lot Ready for Construction

April 22, 2010 - In many areas of the world, the land developer will use fill dirt to make the lot larger. However, it is not a good idea to build a house on areas where this fill dirt is present. Luis refuses to build on anything but solid ground. After Luis had the lot graded down to obtain as much solid land as possible for the building construction they started getting things set up.

 Here, you see the men setting up a structure that will house some of the building materials and act as the base of operations.

Jose gave Luis enough information to get started on the footers. Once all the measurements are verified correct, then the process begins.

Within the next few days, Jose will have all the changes made to the blueprints and apply for the building permits.
