Week 11, Day 8

Week 11, Day 8:

  • The last day of building for 2015, and really only half a day because of the weather
    • It seems unfair to class half a day as Week 12, so I’m going to call it Week 11, Day 8
    • These daily posts will resume on 2016-01-04, which I’ll call Week 12
  • The last lift of scaffolding required to finish the blockwork walls
  • The last big delivery of concrete blocks
  • Finally confirming the dimensions and specifications for the windows and external doors

Week 11, Day 1

Week 11, Day 1:

  • Yet another delivery of a full lorry load of concrete blocks first thing in the morning (before 08:00); probably just one more required now
  • Lots more progress fitting the first floor joists, including the short fiddly ones between the two steel beams over the Living Room
  • A bit more progress with the blockwork and a lot of preparation for installing the outer walling blocks in the coming days
  • Feedback to the manufacturers of the SIPS roofing units on their drawings for the roof structure, following the site meeting with the architects last week
