Finally we are headed in the right direction.

The concrete panels are precast off site with 5,000 PSI concrete and then brought to the job and lowered in place.

Each section is lowered into place and bolted to the one next to it. Heavy-duty sealant is put on the seam to waterproof the basement.

The finished porduct complete with a 15 year warranty.

The steps molded into the foundation on the left of the picture are brick ledges for the brick veneer that will be put on the exterior of the foundation.
