The Solar Barn, Part 6

Okay, so today we poured the four corner concrete piles for the Temple of Consumption and installed steel plates in the piles.  Here is one of the steel plates welded to a rebar "J" hook.
 
 
First, the concrete was poured into the hole and form.
 
Then, the steel pad with rebar hook was quickly inserted into the wet concrete.
 
And finally, the cap was trowel finished.
The concrete will be allowed to cure, and in two days a crane will fly the container onto these steel pads.  Eventually the container will be welded to the pads.
