Noooo way! No professional would do something like that! <~~~~~ Me being facetious. : Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic. Note: BBcode and smileys are still usable.

I would at least call it out as wood/concrete contact and irregular building practices and refer it out to someone else. Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic.

Who knows what the person who built the place was thinking on that day? What ever they are/were, they serve no purpose, they are bad, and should be removed. It is an infestation issue.

Those are scaps of wood nailed to the inside of the form prior to the pour to string a line inside the forms to straighten the wall forms. It was not removed.

Notice how they are located just outside from the metal inside corners of the forms and outside corners.
Do it all the time, but I do not leave them in the form. ;D
