This week the ground floor frames went up.
On Monday the pre-fabricated frames were delivered to site, just 3 days after the slab had been poured. On the Tuesday they all went up! They’re not yet fixed to the slab, that will happen once the slab has had more time to cure.
We got to have a walk through on the weekend to get an initial idea of the room and window sizes and to see the orientation to the early afternoon sun. There’s a lot of glazing down the north side of the house on the ground floor and we can see how much light is flooding through into the family/dining, living and downstairs bedroom.
We’re using larger 140x45mm exterior frames to allows us to use deeper insulation for extra warmth and deeper window sills. Interior frames will be the standard 90x45mm.
