Second Home Rebar Work

At our Second Home, the boys are hard at `er working on the rebar for the foundation. I have never, in a rather varied career in construction, seen such detailed rebar work. Our site supervisor actually busts out an electronic micrometer and measures the space between bars. I am not kidding, it blows my western mind. I was talking to a friend of mine about it, saying that rebar workers I know back home would be fired for doing such nice work since it takes a little bit longer. His response was these workers live with the work they have done everyday for the rest of their lives, and they wouldn`t be able to sleep knowing they performed any less than perfectly.
The floor of the second story will actually sit just a bit higher than the height of the columns in the first shot. That puts it just a tad higher than the existing retaining wall. After that, there is still two more stories to go, putting the fourth floor way up there. Have a look at the pictures from the First Homes roof, then add in the difference of elevation in the land plus one more story, and lets imagine the view from the fourth floor. I predict it should be nothing less than spectacular.
