Day 5593 viewsHad some unusual rain in Isaan for 2 days so the time was spent painting the rest of the steel in the shed, getting a truck load of dirt delivered, and bending more braces.
The ground beams are poured and the roof steel half finished. I still never fathomed out why they have to use a platform to load the mixer. Notice the plastic bags round my expensive steel scaffolding to protect it from cement (a lesson learned from previous jobs).1 commentsjazzman

Day 8587 viewsMore progress on the walls. The 7 cm thick concrete floors have been laid in three of the rooms and the pits for the septic tanks have been dug. Wire mesh reinforcing was laid in the concrete.jazzman

Septic tanks581 viewsDouble-chamber septic tanks with leech system. Our substrate is hard clay and does not percolate to allow seepage tanks. The two in the picture serve two rooms; there will be an identical installation at the other end of the building for the other two rooms and the outside WC/shower and laundry room. Black water flows into the first tank which overflows into the second tank. Grey water goes directly into the second tank. There are no kitchens so a grease trap is not required.jazzman

Chasing580 viewsThe electricians started today chasing the walls for the electrical conduits. Although this is a low budget build, we're still using relatively good quality fittings, and concealed wiring. I've tried many times to teach the men to cut the channels with an angle grinder and just knock out the the stuff in the middle, but to no avail. Still using a hammer and a bent nail. Back home in France I have a special two-bladed power tool attachment for doing this.1 commentsjazzman
