We have finished casting of all of the columns and beams. The floor slab has now been poured. In this case we used pre-cast concrete slabs over which was laid a steel mesh. A layer of concrete was then poured over the tope of this. This method is much quicker than adding in supports and shuttering and then pouring one thick concrete slab. Most of the walls have also now been built. Due to budget constraints with this project, we are using standard blocks, rather than the thermally insulating blocks that we have used on other projects.
