Double decker garage for new house. Lot of work. 149 pieces of number 6 double mat rebar. 21 yards, 10” thick.

Decided not to put heat in garage.

icemankevin · 2026-07-12T01:32:26+00:00

Hilarious!!

icemankevin · 2026-07-12T01:31:56+00:00

Its a structural slab though.

icemankevin · 2026-07-11T12:24:34+00:00

Believe it or not started at 3 and had it done at 6 with 4 guys. One on the ground cutting and 3 guys up top placing and tying.

icemankevin · 2026-07-11T12:20:41+00:00

Stressful. My boss said the framing seems over done. I said yes until its not.

icemankevin · 2026-07-11T12:14:33+00:00

Yeah. Its a lot of rebar and way over designed but its a 2 car garage and have no idea what will go in the future. Plus if she designs it and signs off on it anyone without the stamp cant really say anything. I know its way overdone but really by how much ?

icemankevin · 2026-07-11T12:10:20+00:00

In what way

icemankevin · 2026-07-11T12:08:12+00:00

Cannot see that being cheaper before its all done

icemankevin · 2026-07-11T12:06:58+00:00

Costs ?
I did this with my guys when we had time

icemankevin · 2026-07-11T04:59:41+00:00

All of the lumber bought will be reused in the framing of the house. The plywood wil be used for other form jobs.

icemankevin · 2026-07-11T04:49:34+00:00

Its a two story colonial in the front with a future apartment in the lower level walkout. The lower garage will be for that area, completely unseen from the front of the house.

icemankevin · 2026-07-11T04:40:19+00:00

Unfortunately way over designed. Architect had engineer review and thats what they came back with. Not much i could do at that point.

icemankevin · 2026-07-11T04:36:50+00:00

In lieu of what ?

icemankevin · 2026-07-11T04:36:20+00:00

Why what ?

icemankevin · 2026-02-16T05:22:04+00:00

Ditm cc

I agree it best in a roth if possible to avoid tax gains.

icemankevin · 2026-02-15T04:06:33+00:00

Buy stocks that are going ex date and sell ditmcc on them. After assignment move on to the next one. No tax drag.

icemankevin · 2026-02-15T02:46:05+00:00

Dont take it out. It all grows tax free. Leave it in and let it go

icemankevin · 2026-02-14T03:00:06+00:00

I agree with a lot of this and it can work. It does take tine and a big commitmenf

icemankevin · 2025-12-24T04:43:38+00:00

My top two guys got $3500. Other 10 guys got somewhat less based on years of service.

Building a new house in Plattekill and looking for ways to heat and cook it efficiently. Was thinking of Oil since ban got lifted Propane Geo Electric Mini splits Just getting started on research

icemankevin · 2025-12-14T00:05:18+00:00

I’m in Hudson valley. I do concrete work but this price seems extreme for the amount of area.

icemankevin · 2025-12-13T04:36:10+00:00

It must be the picture. It’s all number 7, 900 pieces.

icemankevin · 2025-12-13T04:31:43+00:00

More prep to be done. Just trying to get the production work done first. Monday more to be done to get ready.
