I've just got in from work, was the better half posting earlier and we've just gone over the 400 or so photos I took between 7am and 11:30 this morning, got to see the whole lot go in and the first few sections form work revealed. So got some quick processing to do now and i'll get a few up now before calling it a night brb.

Ran out of time and needed to get to into work unfortunately. In other news, we also put down our deposit on our solid Jarrah flooring, so nice to get that sorted as well. Will try to dig up a pic of it over the weekend. Thats it for now, just need to try and calm down enough to get some sleep.

However I get down there to find its been infested with carpenters a piles of wood. Thats right kids looks like our frame is being started today. I thought they may have left it longer to cure given it was only finished pouring at midday yesterday and it hasnt exactly been warm. Pics will come later,can't upload them at work.

Alot quicker than mine did too. It does seem that way, we were told by our admin a few weeks back that they had a shortage of houses ready to go with everyone seeming to be waiting on land settlements. So hopefully its just that they have tradies available. So as Johno alluded to .... We've been Framed well partially. Outer frame is in place, with a couple of internal walls up and the rest soon to follow. Enough talk on with the pics.

As always S&T 2007 gives the details on whats considered a defect or not. http://www.buildingcommission.com.au/resources/documents/S+T_GUIDE_07.pdf Other than that if you've got a pic of it, maybe put it up in the Building standards sections, perhaps one of the resident grano's can shed some light.
