Have you ever considered precasting? We do some of this and it can save a
lot of time,  trips,  and issues on remote sites like delivery it mileage
charges.

Having said that, it can cost more make ready. On small tower foundations
we have done some pretty large foundations this way. Normally casting slabs
in 6 or 12 inch thickness with four holes that are then bolted together
with very large bolts all the way through. Did hole, 2 inches of sand in
bottom. Start dropping them in and bolting them up.
