Concrete pedestal poured differently
Concrete pedestal poured differently
(OP)
We were showing a 24"x24" x 2'0 tall concrete pedestal supporting a steel column (gravity) on our plans. The contractor has poured it incorrectly. It is about 12" off. In such cases, is it advisable to tear down the pedestal and construct a new one , or construct a new one by its side (12x24) and attach to the existing using epoxy dowels.

If not and the owner can live with it, just leave it.

Have the contractor check for local plumbing and conduit issues and give him the option between the equally valid repairs. Keep your client in the loop.

Timing has a lot to do with the outcome of a rain dance.
