Concrete VibrationConcrete vibrated as it is poured into the ground beam. Vibrators are necessary to ensure that the concrete doesn't have voids and settles evenly though out the form.

Front viewAll we need now is a nice garden around it and some sleek stainless steel railings round the patios. We're waiting for good weather to apply the cladding to the porch pillars. The House Registration Certificate was delivered by the Or Bor Dor on 2 June 2008 for 20 baht. At no time were we required to apply for planning or construction permissions, no blueprints were required, and no money ever changed hands.

More superb engineeriing.Click the image for a full screen view. A load-bearing concrete corner column. Notice how the whole weight of the corner of the roof rests on the too thin rebar of the columns that were made too short. The ring-beam is only a single c-section 4 x 4 steel girder; it should at least be a box section - better would bee two C-sections welded face-to-face. Viewed from the outside, the tiles lifting up a couple of milimetres at their bottom edges demonstrates that the roof is sagging already.jazzman06/27/12 at 20:41Baht Man: I see this all the time as accepted practice. It a...

There are two basic types of hung ceilings, one being sheetrock and the other made from prefabricated ceiling tiles. The prefabricated tiles are easier as far as maintenance since they are not permanently affixed and can be adjusted as required. Each tile is supported in a square frame. Should a tile break or discolor, it simply is removed and replaced. This picture shows an example of ceiling tiles.dozer05/25/12 at 09:01Shastadad: One of the many unforgivable sins on the part of m...

House PlanThe house design is based on Australian home designs from Henley Properties and Simond's Homes. The entrance, study and master bedroom are based on Henley Properties designs, with the rest of the house following design ideas from Simond's Homes.
The area of the house is 250 square metres (including the front porch and rear outdoor area). The quoted price from a builder was 1.7 million baht, however we have decided to manage the project in-family, and are sourcing all the materials ourselves.
