End of Week 5: Foundation blocks

With the support piers poured, the next phase is to do the concrete forms and inserting some materials that deals with expansion and compression of the soil. The plywood is to hold the concrete when it is poured.

At the bottom is the cardboard like things that will deal with the expansion/compression. Once the concrete is poured, we'll never see those things again even though they cost me an arm and a leg...
