We have moved past the earthwork phase and the site is feeling a little more clean.  Plumbing, rock aggregate base and floor insulation went in before the concrete floors were poured.

Scott has been doing a lot of the work to prepare for the installation of the SIP panels.  The sill plates will form the threshold for the insulated wall panels (SIPS) to attach.  Over the holiday week the first floor joists went in along with the structural wall that support the joists at the future basement steps (thanks to my brother Kareem for all the help!).  The floor sheathing is nearly complete and we’re ready for the walls to arrive!
