Interlocking Ridge Tiles- and they go together something like this. One has a small radius, and the overlapping one has a larger radius. It's quicker, easier, and cheaper than using capping tiles, although capping tiles would look nicer on a proper house.jazzman

First snagThis huge drainage ditch goes along the entire 40m frontage. The plan is to lay concrete drainage pipes and fill it in for parking space. The workers dropped one pipe getting it off the truck - 150 baht 'down the drain'.
Never mind, if that's all that goes wrong on this project, I'll be happy.jazzman

Day 15 rendered walls - rear viewOur solution for the bathroom windows can clearly be seen: two glass blocks at flanked on either side by a ventilated brick. The glass blocks were left over from the construction of the house, but they can be bought from 38 baht. The vented bricks cost 5.50 baht each.
There are no zoning regulations here. To maximise on our land, the rear wall is 1 metre from the land boundary.jazzman

RenderingThe rendering of all the interior and exterior walls is now complete. We used 35 bags of rendering cement (boon chap) and sand carefully sieved through blue plastic netting. This cement is sold in 40 Kg bags, not 50 Kg, at 100 baht each. We added plasticiser to the mix - a 100 baht can was enough.jazzman

Septic tanksDouble-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

21 Feb 2009This flight of steps is at the side of the house that gets us up to the back balcony area. So when the forms come off we will have a way up to the floor area from 2 points and no more crawling up and down for the duration of the build.pklongball

21 Feb 2009Today we can see the addition of a tall section of scaffolding. They brought this in today as the work on the upper sections of the steel will start and they need to have something high to work from.pklongball

21 Feb 2009The crawl space access is being closed in also. First a small footing is built then some blocking will be added. I also told him I wanted some vents in this area on bouth sides of the house for getting some fresh air under the house. The vents will be built to keep any and all the unwanted "guests" from entering the space.pklongball
