Foundation

For a couple of days now the workers have concentrated to be finished with the foundation. Here is some pictures.

The for is gone from the platform, now it has to cure.


To support curing in the tropics, this chemical can help. With this the concrete will keep the moist within even if the temperature is 35 degrees (Celsius) and full sunshine.

Two times is needed on every surface.

Time for the pillars. Forms in place.

Quality control - measurement

The digger was here again - this picture shows the area. For me, it looks like a WW2 battlefield?

Blueprint

The first version of the blueprint. About half of the house is one floor, the bedrooms are raised as a second floor with mostly open areas below (laundry and outdoor relax area). I guess there will be some small changes here and there during the building process, but in general this is the house. Even if it looks like that, we will not have any cars under the bedroom.

Community water

Perfect timing. The community have started to dig and mount water pipes right outside my fence, so I will get water from both the well and the community = no future water problems!
