Putting in the beam pockets

Not shown is 6" sill seal foam placed inside the form below the work area. That's what keeps the cutout pieces and sawdust from falling into the form.


The pocket is put in place and held with construction adhesive. The concrete is separated from the beam end by galvanized sheet metal.


Then it's finished and a piece of rebar is placed in the hole on the top of the bracket. The red line is the 2nd floor level (minus the sheathing and finish layers).
