Day 87

Progress this week:

  • Bricks were delivered (need to check they are the bricks we ordered! Can't tell from this distance).

  • Overhang issues as described previously was fixed (last week) by timber bolted to the slab and underneath the overhang. Don't know much about this and hope that this meets the building standards. Will need to call our own building inspector.

  • Frame inspected by Metricon's independent building inspectors (Group Four Building  Surveyors) - would be interested what they thought about the overhang fix. 
  • Capped gas connection at outdoor area done according to our SS
  • Storm water discharge remains unresolved. Spoke to the local council civil works inspector on the phone. He said he happened to inspect the site on the day that the plumber relocated the storm water drain. He pointed out to the plumber that the new drainage point will be in the way of the future crossover. Apparently, the plumber responded with a 'shrug of the shoulders' and said he's doing it according to the plans!!!!! (The building plan clearly shows a crossover in this location.)
  • We contacted our Building Support Coordinator  (BSC) who has marked this issue as urgent and hopefully we will get a resolution soon with an on site meeting with the civil works inspector, base supervisor, plumbers and us.
  • Gutters and fascia installed in the outdoor and dining area

Here are some pics from the meeting with the SS last week.
