Urban Farm DB summary
California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo Construction Management students undertook the City Farm SLO Sheep Shed Foundation Slab project to improve a livestock shelter's structural integrity. The project involved removing an existing shed, preparing subgrade in muddy winter conditions, and constructing a reinforced 5-inch, 4500 PSI concrete slab with drainage. This hands-on endeavor demonstrated technical competency in construction and site logistics, with lessons learned including equipment coordination and adapting to site constraints.
