Pouring The Slab For Valley Public Radio's New Home

Work crews today poured concrete for the majority of the building's floor areas today. Workers used a giant concrete pump to distribute the wet concrete to different parts of the site and then used hand and power tools to level and smooth the surface. You may notice that some portions of the building don't yet have concrete floors, and that's by design. Those areas are acoustically isolated from the rest of the structure and will have special concrete floor areas to ensure sound doesn't transfer from the outside and between studio spaces. The concrete pour for the studio spaces is expected to take place next week. Once all the flooring work is done, expect to see framing for the walls take place rather quickly.
