Construction update - 2nd week August


the roof trusses are more and more complete, the doubled up trusses on the front are there because the bottom links were removed to allow the area above the kitchen and living room to be open all the way to the roof (and not have an interior ceiling ie)


wooden form for the extended deck ..


working on the trusses, precariously ..


the deck - with steel bars in place


partly concreted .. the doubled up bars at the ends transfer the cantilever load of the deck extension onto the beam that is supported by the foundations.



seiving sand .. by hand .. the wooden assembly allows the seive to be swung


the concrete deck, now complete and set (a couple of days later)


painting roof trusses with red lead, they will be painted again with red lead primer, and then gloss finish paint in situ.

Meanwhile, the granite and ceramic tiles, glass blocks, bathroom set have been ordered and should be delivered from Lucena. The roof gutter should be delivered today, and the rest of the roof material early next week. more photos will follow then!

Panoramic shots taken in Quatiz (Barangay Masiga, Gasan - Marinduque)

These are some panoramic shots I took near my construction site in Masiga, Gasan. They were taken as multiple shots and then stitched together, the one at the back of the house is over 360 degrees! They are mapped in a cylindrical projection, click the images for versions with much higher resolution (and still a lot lower than the resolution of the original panoramics .. the big one is over 18,000 pixels wide!)
