There is a grey area written into the code as far as what those foundation walls must be. They do have to be above 3500 psi, but it depends on how you interpret the code as to whether
or not you need 4500 psi.
Because we were super close to 4500 psi at 28 days, those walls should be fine as they were poured.
Thanks!
