Being there, I just felt like all the hard work is starting to pay-off finally.
Next stage is brick-laying. Once they complete laying the bottom half of the house, the Scaffolding will go up. Waiting for that to happen!

ReplyDeleteDhanu & Nikhil - I believe wood is used in many of the constructions as it is more suited to the climate and readily available. The wooden structure is bolted to the foundation so that it does not get blown away ;-). The foundation is made of concrete and steel.
ReplyDeleteIf you notice the house behind ours, you will see bricks getting laid around the framework. That is the next stage of building.
Priya, the planning takes longer. Excecution is really fast. We are told that we could get the keys in 3 months and we could move in by December. Time will only tell.
