Weekly site meeting

Had our regular weekly site meeting with the builder this morning. He needs our revised window details urgently. Discussed the project’s internal cladding requirements. Sound transmission between spaces is a serious project consideration and I've asked the builder to price for the use of Lafarge Soundshield plasterboard for the internal linings. Also discussed possible cabinet makers for the joinery. Will confirm list with builder and he will arrange quotes.
Builder will be submitting third progress claim shortly.


Flooring over posi-struts

First floor framing is progressing well. Sheet flooring has been laid over the posi-strut ceiling/floor joists to provide a safe working platform as well as structural bracing and the floor finish sub-stratum. External wall framing commenced.


First floor framing taking place

Took the opportunity to attend a very inspiring talk by Ross Lovegrove, British Industrial and Interior Designer, at RMIT in the evening.
