Today, we will proceed with a very important setting of rebars and bases that will be required in our wall construction. Properly setting rebar is really critical for structural integrity and stability in place.

Why is rebar important? The purpose of rebar is to add tensile strength to concrete. Concrete, by nature, is strong in compression but weak in tension. Such reinforcement allows our walls to resist loads and even environmental stresses.
Steps Involved:
Plan and Layout: Mark positions of columns and bases, considering the architectural plan. Cut and bend appropriate steel rebar with tools to fit the design specifications.
Setting of Columns: Place columns of rebar firmly in their spots, ensuring that they are level and plumb.
Concrete Pouring: After setting the rebars, concrete will be poured for the base and to lock the columns in their places.
Safety first! Always wear protective gear and take all the necessary safety measures to ensure the work area is safe.
