FRIDAY

today we were straight back into our construction of our wall frames. we finished off the last one and braced it up so they were ready to be lifted up and fitted in place. we still worked in our team of 3 so our team started at one end of the house and team 2 started at the opposite. our first wall we lifted up was the side wall of bedroom 1. we then lifted the back wall in place and temporarily nailed them together to hold eachother up. once these two were stable we then began lifting each wall in place and bracing them together. after all the walls were up and in place we started to get them level by running a string line around the top plate and making the distanc between the line and the plate a pencil thickness. i went around and trimmed out where load bearing walls were giving the floor extra strength to support the wall frames.dan, greg, rob and i then began measuring and working out where the internal wall frames were so we started making them up. i made the shower nib wall and the bathroom nib wall and fitted them in place while the other boys made the bathroom walls which were all levelled and fixed in place. all this took up the whole day.
