As said by first poster, that form design with open bottom will want to lift, like a zombie comeing back to life after being buried, and I don't think that 2x4s transversing the holes and fastened to the forms and staked down will hold them down. I also, believe you will have to back fill the forms before the pour to hold them down. The 2x4s should hold the forms in place when backfilling. What are you using for ancor bolts in the top of the pier. I would seperate the rebar at the top also. A wad of 4 rebars tighed together is never a good idea. If you have an acetylene outfit, cut and bend two squares, one about 4" square for the top and one about 16" for the bottom of each pier, and tie your uprites into the corners with wire twists. Simply cut two peices of bar and form an X half way up. The bent squares will keep the rebar frame much more ridgid. It would also be a good idea to have a vibrator to remove the voids that will form as you are pouring. Good luck with your pour. Loren
