Outbuildings: Week 17, Day 3

Back to more normal weather – for a bit. The wall plates around the Garage are now installed, in readiness for the roof trusses, together with a bit more finishing off of the brickwork and blockwork around the Garage.

The scaffolders were back to install some scaffolding inside the Garage, to enable the internal walls to be built up to the ridge height of nearly 7 metres above internal floor level.

The installer for the doors and windows was also on-site to survey the finished door and window openings, in preparation for those being specified for manufacturing.

Outbuildings: Week 16, Day 1

As planned, the scaffolders were back on-site to raise the level of the scaffolding platform around the barn / garage (which has higher walls than the rest of the complex)

The raised scaffolding platform viewed from the north-west corner

More work on the upper layers of brickwork, incorporating the guttering brackets that were delivered the other day.

Black metal supports for the rise-and-fall guttering brackets along the east-facing side of the workshop – now up to the full height of the brickwork

Also more preparation for installing the next set of roof trusses – and the delivery of a portable scaffold tower for use inside the garages.
