Construction Progress

Diggin' Holes And Makin' Sawdust...


Fortunately for me and the American Healthcare system I'm the Architect/Engineer on this adventure, and as a result younger, stronger, more flexible and resilient men are making good progress on my Neighbor's sun room addition project.

Here's a look at the first 10 days (16 days on the calendar) of work.

A ditch full of re bar waiting on concrete:



A Cement truck load slopping in the ditches:






Footers and back fill in place ready for the slabs:




Walls framed up, waiting on a roof:






Ridge beam in place and rafters set...






It will have a roof skin and shingles by the end of the day Wednesday...

...and it sure is easier to stand around taking pictures and pointing at drawings rather than running a saw and climbing scaffolding.

And of course I get some credit for the design.
