Out of the Ground

 

At last the steel works go up.

The steel went in last week - what a relief. First the uprights and then the cross beams. In order to carry the weight and make the spans, there were a couple of larger beams that are used in the centre of the building - essentially around the tv lounge, so the level of the ceiling will be slightly lower in this room and the powder room next to it. Height in the tv lounge will be approx 2.550, height elsewhere should be 2.65.
