Had to chip away 2x6x18 inches of concrete from the foundation of the
new addition. The concrete forms had
bowed and almost burst
when the
contractor did a 4-foot deep pour with concrete that was slightly
too wet and runny. No problem. Just got a thicker, more solid
foundation. 10 inches thick in some places instead of 8.
However, some of that bulge got in the way when laying the steps,
and had to be chipped away. Tried chisels, pickaxe, etc., and finally
got it done with the pointed end of a 6-foot steel "slate bar".
