Completing the floor beams on first floor

For some days now, the work have been focused to get the floor beams on first floor done.
I have here a lot of pictures from the framework to the ready beams.

Setting up the metal forms

Forms in place

Measures the bathroom floor

A lot of tree is needed to stable the forms

The concrete truck cannot get the concrete up to the forms, so there is a lot of manual lifting.

Forms removed

Special chemicals used to keep the concrete moist for the first important days.

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!

Pictures from downstairs

Some pictures from today.
