Existing steel stairs from rear of bar to backyard were removed and a temporary wood stairs were put in it's place to allow the evening barback to get supplies for the evening crowds.
Architect and structural engineer met to review the probes for the footing by the contractor at Rudy's neighbor, Poseidon Bakery's adjoining wall. It was determined that no shoring needs to be done along the 12' at their wall. Careful probing around Rudy's chimney will be done to determine whether shoring is required. Also shoring maybe done along the 7' x 4" decking perpendicular to Poseidon's wall, or digging maybe done on an angle where shoring may otherwise not be needed.
Chipping away at existing cement block wall in backyard was continued. Bolting the 2" x 8" x 16 gauge C channels to the original 3" x 10" wood joists continued along the new cellar fire egress.
