I thought that they would put reo in the ribs / webs that run the length and width of the slab. To me that's terrible as they will be in tension with no reo..not a good scenario they will fail. Re: Waffle Pod Slab Construction in Time-lapse. 7Jun 24, 2014 9:51 pm If you look closely they have put single bar in each channel between the pods so they intersect over the slab. That is all that is required for a waffle slab.

Re: Waffle Pod Slab Construction in Time-lapse. 14Jun 26, 2014 9:03 pm I've been using a NVR with IP camera's to record everything onsite. I'll have a complete video record of the build until lock up, but would also like to have a crack at timelapse for fittings inside if the builder is open to the idea. As the camera's are all wifi based all i would need is a 12v power source (car battery) and tripod for inside. Next up will be the stick frame process, when that starts. I hope these videos help people as I searched for timelapse videos of australian volume builders with out much luck.

I guess it's the sort of job that is go-go-go until it is mostly finished. My pour started just a few minutes before 7am, then finishing up around 1pm.
