Turns out the rock I found in one corner extends under almost all of the current hole, so I will get a rotary hammer and bore half a dozen holes in it to pin the block to it with reo. There are plans for more pier blocks, hopefully the rock does not interfere with those! Or maybe it would be good if there was a house sized monster under there to pin them all to.


For the sake of simplicity, unless someone convinces me otherwise I am going to build a reo cage, supported from the top The support I will remove just before it is covered, after there is no chance of the reo moving down and coming out the bottom of the block) and I am going to drill and grout unithread in with concrete epocy for the mounting bolts to save the inevitable chance of the bolts moving around during the pour.
