Checking agreement of electronic plans and actual field build

The forms are going in for the pouring of the slab. The last bit of work is the construction of the cable trough under the console. Here are three pictures: a photo from the actual site of where we plan to put the trough, a rendering of what the control room floor might look like (with console and many walls conspicuously absent), and finally a composite of the two showing us how our field grid and CAD grids agree.

Note that because the rebar is 5" below slab height, and because the grid of the control room floor is not exactly a multiple of 2' (the module of the rebar), there's some apparent disagreement between the two. The main concern is the the console legs, the floor outlets, and the trough all play together nicely. Here's the sequence:







Here's hoping we get it right!
