Excavating and pouring for footing columns

Much rumbling, churning and beeping went on today, as two large cement trucks and a cement pump truck maneouvred around the parking lot to work by Flavelle House.

They were excavating and pouring two column footings in the existing building basement. These columns are required to support the structure of the Bora Laskin building to allow the demolition to take place.

This truck used its pipe from the pump to extend across the ground, into the building and down to the basement to the footing location in Flavelle House.
