This shot shows the 'chairs' used to support the reo mesh on top of the waffle pods. It also shows the step that gets formed as part of the slab for which the bricks sit on around the perimeter of the slab.
You can see here how deep the footings go under for the balcony at the front of the house. There is a lot of set up required to get this right.
Here you can see the trench that has been dug for the footings for the Alfresco area at the rear. The footings in this area do not support any structure but prevent the slab from shifting and also link the pier that supports the corner of the roof line.
As daylight savings has now ended, it's going to be increasingly difficult to make it out to the block after work before dusk. I think Lou will need to go instead of me.
I just had to post this last shot, the sunset was awesome.
SO hopefully tomorrow we should be able to show pics of the Slab being poured!!

Looks like you'll be all cemented up today! Your house is the same way as ours. All the others have been with the garage on the left. We are on day 55 so it wont be long before you will be walking around inside.
Nice Sunset! You'll enjoy that when sitting out on your Alfresco in your new Cremorne!!!
Great that they've done the framework, exciting day tomorrow.
We are opposite to you guys and M&M, I went through Derrimut Display which is positioned like your house and just couldn't get used to it! Was so used to the Mernda display which ours will be like.
Fantastic! You'll have a slab before you know it. Then the frame... it will happen fast, so try and get there every day. Love the photos and the detail. Well done!
