Weekly Report No 284, CW 14
From Monday, 03.04.2006 to Sunday, 09.04.2006
Since last week, we made a lot of progress: this is the last quarter right before the inevitable "demolition".
The horizontal beams were quite a challenge...
but cut into handy pieces, they weren't much of a problem.
This is one of those "handy pieces" of concrete beam.
A new job (we're currently looking for a couple of volunteers!!!):
Regaining the old metal by extraction of the steel armor in order to sell it to the scrap yard....
On one side, the floor is finished while at the same time holes are drilled into the new floor on the other side.
For heavy weights, we prefer to position the beams directly onto the concrete. The flooring material might eventually not be able to carry the weight or warp.
The staircase is growing (at least the carrying beams). Alert readers already know this because since last week we offer a new a topic on our internet site:
The picture of the hour. The background information for this topic will be discussed in the next weekly report(including a nice little surprise!!!).
From now on, our visitors can again watch us building the layout - from both floors!!!
- from both floors!!!
The back part of the 4th floor (behind the fire engine collection) only has fragments left...
that remind of it's former purposes (for instance, this picture shows part of the decoration of our first baby-care room).
