Week 7, Day 4:

• More progress with the beam-and-block floor, adding blocks to fill the gaps between the beams, cutting as necessary
• Installation of the 3 courses of blue engineering bricks immediately below the damp-proof-course on the outer skin of the cavity wall
  • Except for in the areas beneath the sliding glass doors, since those need to be fixed to wooden frames which in turn need to be fixed to the blockwork below and the blocks provide a much better fixing than the engineering bricks
• Completion of the below-floor drainage

Week 7, Day 4

Three courses of blue engineering bricks immediately below DPC
