Phase Five: Foundation

Once the footers were in and dry, the foundation went up in short order. They built the foundation walls around about 90% of the footprint of the house, leaving one opening on the northern end for a large frontend loader to get into the new foundation to spread the fill dirt. You'll notice that as the photos below progress the foundation walls rise, the fill dirt is piled up inside the foundation, and finally the fill dirt is spread out and foundation is closed up.
