North Retaining Walls - Before and After Pictures

First, the process of making those walls:

Arrival of the Concrete Pumper Truck

The pumping process

  The contractor had thought he needed a bigger pump truck.  It was not available, so this 39 meter truck came and it was  just able to stretch to all needed areas.   (It saved some money.) In the photo on the left, the man in the foreground is controlling the concrete being pumped, and the boom on the pump truck.  The man above in the background is doing the final positioning of the 'nozzle' down into the wall area.  The two other men at this point are looking on.  They are waiting to get in there with their vibrator to get air bubbles out. They are working on the East retaining wall on the North end of the house.
Below, the pump operator is to the right.  This is the West retaining wall on the North end of the house.












Now for the before and after pictures.
