The plan

Before we could build a house we needed a plan.
In Thailand there are a bunch of pre-approved house plans you can fetch from the local municipality (Thesaban in thai). After looking at these without finding any plan we really liked we started to google around on the internet for others. The house should be placed in Thailand and therefor it was important to find a house plan suited for the thai climate. 
We found a very interesting site — it’s a company drawing complete plans with all documentation and blueprints, they then sell these for 5000 bath each. They do not do any changes or special solutions, just these plans. You will find a link below.
We bought the plan for the house BP27, but was not completely happy with it, so we started to do some modifications and ended up with an own version.
When we were done we let a thai engineer make the official blueprints and calculations on the changed plan so it could be approved by the thesaban office and be used by the builder.

Roof - Part 2

The roof took three days. The put tiles both on the high roof and most part on the lower roof. They decided to wait with the part that is between the big and low part because the plastering work on the high wall could make the tiles very dirty and difficult to clean after. Another solution should have been covering the part, but that was not an option - they are the experts, so it's just to lean back and let them do what they want. Lats and lifting tiles. Some parts done Under the high roof Notice the security hooks and helmets (not?). Low roof Most ready now. The team will now wait for the plastering work on the outer walls on the high part and then its time to finishing up.
