Crossing my fingers for it to rain tomorrow to push back the framing for Monday (most people hope for no rain - think Im going crazy... ) Will take some pics tonight and post on the Blog...

We now have a slab as of this morning..... Guys indicated that they will start framing tomorrow - will the concrete dry in time?? Sound too early for me - does anyone know what the min amount of time is required before the slab is ready? Its bad practice to start framing the next day. Minimum ped criso recommendations is 3 day. A slab takes 28 days to set, 3 day to reach a critical structural hardness Re: Porter Davis homes 3797Nov 24, 2011 6:31 pm Congrats on the start Alpal......hope that it's delayed for you. Can you raise your concerns with your SS? Thanks again Zinner, I've asked PD to consider providing bricks of a similar design that are a higher Cat as there is no obvious alternative. Should hear tomorrow as we need to check the colour selections match ASAP so our build isn't delayed. Re: Porter Davis homes 3799Nov 24, 2011 10:23 pm JLD Congrats on the start Alpal......hope that it's delayed for you. Can you raise your concerns with your SS? Hi JLD, Had a quick chat to my BC, even though frame is booked for tomorrow they will organise the frame to wait until at least Monday next week. What a relief!!! Cant wait to see the frame go up - this is when my wife will start to get really excited (will start to resemble a house) Appreciate everyones feedback Cheers Cheers, Alpal Building PD Heathmont 40 BLOG: http://alpal-pd-heathmont40.blogspot.com/ Deposit paid 19/08/2011 Contract signing 3/10/2011 Site Start 10/11/2011 Slab 23/11/2011 Re: Porter Davis homes 3800Nov 24, 2011 10:24 pm thebigbuild We had our site cut!
