30.8.13 Brickwork Commenced Today

Got a message from McDonald Jones that our brickwork has started today. I guess they were waiting for our third progress payment to be be payed before they give the site supervisor the go ahead. The Frames have been finished 10 days back and we were waiting for our bank to carryout the inspection and make the payment. Finally the frame payment was made yesterday and the brick work started today.

The bricks that we have chosen are form the standard range and we didn't had much option as we are building in high saline soil. It was for this reason that our slab was H2 too. Our brick is Austral Urban One Silver and for the pillars at the front we have used Urban One Pepper. We didn't wanted to spend on bricks as we will get the front acrylic rendered so no point spending on bricks.

Will be visiting our BLOCK on the weekend to see how things are shaping up.....
