Phase Two Complete

Getting Closer! the wall is growing.  Phase one is underwater with the concrete slab at waterlevel.  Phase two is three more tires and another concrete slab.  We used tiebacks on this middle level as an added security to secure it into the bank. 







Strangely, once you get beyond the idea that it looks like 'trailer trash' I can see a lot of beauty in the rhythm.

Here is a detailed look at the tires.  The workers fill the sides with small rocks and then leave a couple inside with the rebar.  Once the concrete is dumped into the centre they compact it into the sides.
