Concrete Flows!

What's so exciting about seeing a cement truck pouring concrete?

Not much unless it is pouring concrete at the site of Brookfield Academy's future high school. The arrival of concrete signals the start of work on the actual foundation of the building. Construction terms like "excavating foundations" and "footings" and "backfill" are part of the discussion as Patriots Hall construction starts in earnest. BA Blogger is not sure what any of those terms mean, but saying them out loud sounds really cool!

If you want to sneak a peek at building construction progress, click on the Patriots Hall webcam link located to the right of this blog for a live look at the "job site." (Job site, another great term, is construction lingo for the location of Patriots Hall!) You can also follow Soar with the Stars...A Stellar Opportunity capital campaign happenings by going to http://www.brookfieldacademy.org/ and

clicking on Soar With The Stars. BA is dedicated to keeping everyone informed about the progress of Patriots Hall, especially when "underfloor plumbing," "drywall tapping," and "topping slab" occur. Again, BA Blogger is not sure what those construction terms mean, but they sure do sound like progress! If you don't believe the blogger, check out some live action scenes from today's concrete pour.
