Inspection passed! One portion of the slab is closer to the fence than I thought, unsure how that happened, but we can move forward.

Oh yeah. 24" long bolts at the ends of the shear walls, 12" J-bolts at 3' spacing. You can see the shear wall bolts are held in by the blue plastic holders on the corners in the lower pictures, the J-bolts will be put in by hand after the cement has poured.
The rationale for this (putting in the J-bolts later) is that it's easier to screed the concrete if the sides of the forms can be used as a reference edge.

Great!!
Just an aside - in the rebar photos, I don't see any anchor bolts. Aren't you required to hold the building on the slab?
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
