Week 2, Day 1

Week 2, Day 1:

  • Good weather which is forecast to continue for a week or more – cool overnight but lots of sunshine in the daytime
  • Site visit from the Architect at 08:00, likely to be a weekly event
  • More digging, getting more of the foundations down to the correct level
  • I decided where to locate the two Ground Source Heat Pump pipe trenches and marked out the line of the first one ready for digging

Week 2, Day 1

Week 1, Day 5

While the visible progress on Day 5 was modest the site welfare cabins are now connected to electricity, water and drainage and I made progress marking out some datum lines for the ground source heat pump collector loops which involved hacking back quite a lot of weeds. The grass and the teasels are OK but the brambles are a pain – quite literally in many cases.

I noticed that some of the end-of-day photos are looking a little dark so here’s one from the weekend.
