Forms for the pool walls
















It has been 2 days since the concrete for the bottom of the pool was poured. Now Roger needs to build the forms for the walls of the pool. Forms is what is used when the slab of the whole house is poured and that concrete will just pour into the forms. First Roger must place rebar for the walls of the pool to hold in the concrete. He then built the crazy forms out of wood. This was much more complicated than we ever imagined and took a lot more wood than imagined. Once the forms were in he then had to screw them in the concrete at the bottom of the pool to prevent them from floating once the concrete spills in the sides.
