The Contractor's Foundation Mastery

VOLUME 1 — THE CONTRACTOR’S FOUNDATION MASTERY

EPUB READING EDITION

Foundation control begins before the excavator starts.

The team must understand the site information, datum, ground conditions, founding requirements and inspection route before production pressure takes over.

The EPUB edition of The Contractor’s Foundation Mastery is designed for reading and preparation on a phone, tablet or compatible e-reader.

Use it before a foundation project begins, during a site briefing or while preparing for excavation, reinforcement or concrete work.

The manual explains the reasoning behind setting out, founding inspections, blinding, reinforcement, starter bars, services, concrete, curing, evidence and handover to the next stage.

The EPUB format makes the technical and practical guidance easier to read continuously without carrying a large physical manual.

Text size and other reading settings can normally be adjusted through the chosen e-reader application.

You will need a compatible EPUB-reading app.

Suitable applications are available through the Google Play Store, Apple App Store, Amazon Appstore or your device’s regular app marketplace.

This edition is intended for study and quick reference.

Contractors needing fixed-layout printable forms, trench sheets, reinforcement records or pour controls should use the printable PDF edition.

Read the foundation route before the site reaches the point where stopping becomes expensive.
