The end of this week saw level 1 poured, the ground floor drainage approved, the ground floor being backfilled and compacted, and scaffolding start to go up on the North Eastern side of the building!

July 2021 - Structure takes shape!
The last level 3 slab pour area, pre-pour!
Monark from a distance! The tower crane is holding up a panel up whilst the props are connected to take over and hold it up.

The two major milestones for this week were pouring the final slab on level 6, and our steel stud partition walls getting underway. Once more steel stud has been installed we will be able to start our first fix!
Our precast concrete panels are held in place by steel brackets which are bolted onto the structural steel.
Our service risers (left) are up to level 3 now which allows each trade to start running their services up the building.
Scaffolding and temporary guard rails go in with our stairs to allow people to work safely off them.
Due to the amount of concrete needed for the floor slab it takes around 4 1/2 hours to receive all of it, place it, and finish it.
Due to the building's orientation, the east side apartments will be bathed in morning sun, and the west side the afternoon sun.
The steel stud inter-tenancy partitions continue to go in. Soon we'll install first fix services (the internal bits!) in the walls.
