Forming the Basement Walls

Walls, a photo by Donna & Andrew on Flickr.

Here's a row of plywood forming the outside of one of the basement walls.  It's an interesting process to watch.  These large sheets of plywood are loosely attached to the 2x4's on the outside of the rebar.  They're nailed together to form a solid wall.  When this is finished, another row of plywood will be placed in front of the rebar and the two walls of plywood will be secured with pins and the concrete will be poured inside the forms.    I've never seen anything like this before so I'm eager to see how it's done.
