Fire Pit Base and Reinforcement

What happens here

A rectangular wooden frame is built on the ground, outlining the dimensions of the fire pit base. Rebar is cut and bent to form a grid, which is then placed inside this wooden formwork to provide structural reinforcement for the concrete slab. An opening is strategically left in the formwork and rebar grid to create a void space below the finished fire pit, allowing for future placement and access to a propane tank. Concrete is then mixed and carefully poured into the prepared formwork, covering the rebar and filling the base to the desired height. The concrete is smoothed and allowed to cure.

Goal: A wooden frame is constructed for the fire pit base, reinforced with bent rebar, and then filled with concrete, ensuring proper depth for a propane tank access.
