Timing on jobsites is not always precise, yet, as quality firms recognize, good crews always find a way to be productive. This photo was captured and sent in by CFA member, Bartley Corp, showing team members, who were waiting on forms to arrive to the site, capitalizing on available time.

“This job was run by our wonderful project manager, Xavier Bartley, with Edwin Hernandez’s crew,” said Jim Bartley, company president. “They started creating the window openings and laying rebar parallel to the footings so that once the wall forms arrived, they could be more efficient.”

At the start of the project, the crew had to install a 3-foot mat of stone over geotextile filter fabric to combat some early site challenges. “At this stage, we had already poured the footings using Proform,” said Xavier Bartley. “We love the system because it allows us to stone the hole and provide our customers a clean site by using innovative products that help our work stand out. Our foreman Edwin’s leadership helped ensure that we set and poured the wall on the same day.”
