MONDAY AND TUESDAY

well its the first day back and WOW what a start.. we began our journey working through our work booklets on wall framing. paul discussed to us all about framing up walls. we also had a squiz through AS1684 talking about specifications. we then did take off sheets on two different plans working out our ordering lists for studs, plates, lintels, trimmers and noggings. we then went out to the workshop and got our drawing boards ready for a brown paper drawing. and we got homework!!!!! what a joke...

TUESDAY

today we went through our homework and marked it, then continued on looking at settign out wall frames and where doors and windows are located. after this we went out to the floor and began marking out where our plates are going to be. me and daniel marked and pinged lines with the chalkie while the other guys cut plates and also marked and measured. after we got our plates we began marking where our studs, doors and windows are going to be. then we began fittig the rest of our floor on. we used hardies 19mm compressed cement sheeting. we measured, cut and fixed the boards on with screws. then we went back to our drawings and began drawing up some lines.
