Building Update for March 30, 2016 - Completion Of Iron Rods, First Floor

It appears, this phase of a building seems to be the most time consuming part for this building project.

What I am referring to is the bit where all the iron rods for the first floor have to be "knitted" together properly. Not only has the job got to be done properly but there is also the issue of making sure that the correct iron rods are used. Now this is the case I am not there to check, and even if I were to check I have absolutely no knowledge of what type of iron rods needs to be used. If you have been following and reading this building project blog, I mentioned earlier on about engaging the services of the Architect to make regular visits to the site and also be in constant communication with the builder; making sure that the builder only progresses to the next stage of the building when the Architect has given his approval. So at least I have that aspect of the building project protected.

With the iron rods now all in place, the Architect with visit the site with his Structural Engineer inspect and based on their recommendations give the go ahead for the next phase of the work to continue.
