Slowly clearing up

We moved the left over bricks off the lawn today.  Still lots to do.

Wayne's help.....

Wayne helped me for the day and we got a lot done!  We finalized wall plate and beam heights.  We also decided on a plan for the corner pad stones and started bricking the central wall to take the pad stone.

Mores holes in walls and the worker!

Rear central wall exposed

The wooden beams support the bay windows at the back.  I need to put my metal beam (RSJ) above all of this.

Making pad stones for metal beams to rest on

I couldn't find the size of pad stone I need so I am molding them over the next few days.  I found a great online calculator that you enter the dimensions of your void and it tells you in kg's how much sand, cement and stone to mix.
