Progress Report Week 12.

 

After the storm of the year we return to find that the buildings remain intact but the fence is missing a few signs.

 

Unfortunately it is still raining and the winds are too strong to work up on the scaffold, so everyone is sent home.

 

 

As you can clearly see it is far too wet for the bricklayers to work.

 

Covering of the bungalow roof to meet the acousticians requirements is nearly complete.

 

Boarding and forming of parapets is nearly complete.

 

After the worst week so far (weather related) we will begin the covering of the apartment roof with the single ply membrane next week, weather permitting.

 

Hopefully the bricklayers will also be with us and the sun will shine?
