Work on the site has been moving forward for just over a month

The base is in and the first payment has been made to the builder

Groundworks

The foundation diggings are first covered with a layer of concrete then the steelwork is fabricated,
and raised on blocks, over a damp proof membrane. It will be encased in concrete when finished.

 

Timber shuttering to contain the concrete is built around the outside.

 

When the concrete has been poured, some is kept and blocks are made to be tested.

This ensures that it has the correct content and is strong enough for its purpose.
