Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Feb 18, 2008 9:33 pm finally after a long wait since our construction cert was given at the end of november, we have a portaloo a fence and the waste disposal fencing. today there was about 6 truck loads of soil dumped into the middle of our block, this will be used to fill up the inside of the full drop edge beam before they can form up for the upper slab, i just dont know how they will work around with all that soil there , well see what happens.
