The first floor of framing is in the books, and while last week seemed like a lightning strike of work, this week has been more gradual (yet still quick).
By the end of the day on Monday this big 1600 lb beam was in place. Rachel and I were theorizing where it would go, and over the garage was the winner!
The rest of the week was mostly work around the space between the first and second floor, with an incredible array of joists and support.
With the subfloor is in place, we are able to get a great idea of the space that will be the heart of the house.
The next couple of weeks will be utilities, exterior drainage and earth moving, so I’ll check in when that is all done. The structure will look the same but around it will be so different!
