Let’s talk about the foundation stage here at Edmond New Homes. This stage begins with the creation of a level pad site. Pad elevation is very critical in ensuring proper water drainage away from the structure. Next, the house lines are staked out on the law in accordance with the plot plan, and then the footing is Doug. Still bars installed throughout the footing. A city inspector will then approve the footing prior to pouring concrete. Once the finance board, wood forms will be erected around the perimeter of the structure. These forms determine building size and finished floor elevation, another critical step in ensuring proper drainage.
At Edmond New Homes, we use only Warsbo waterlines PEX which are far superior to copper and freeze protection. After the forms are in place on the footing, plumbers will roughen all water and drain lines. The plumbers will run the main water line, sewer, and gas lines to the appropriate tie in locations at this time. Upon the plumbers completion in city inspection, filter is brought in it installed inside the wood frames to level off approximately 4 inches below the top of the forms. Any electrical lines that run beneath the slab are installed at this time. Next, post tension cables are installed in the steel bars extending from the footing are bent over in the slab area the footing inside together.
After this, the footing is clear to ensure proper placement of concrete in the full structure is treated with wanted chemical termite protection. Another city inspection is done to pouring any concrete, and upon inspection the slab is poured in the forms are removed. 7 to 10 days after the sob is poured, the post tension cables are tightened to 28,000 pounds of pressure per square inch and then cut flush with the slab. And of course, if you have any questions about any of this, we are here to help.
