step 13: now onto the house pillars

Salam n g'day everyone..

So, this will be the last post for today....and with this I've managed to update this blog up to the site progress!! (
yeay!! finally...huh...huh..pant...pant)

So, as the foundation is completed, the next step really is the pillars. This is actually a very labor & material intensive process. Notice the wood buildup there in front of the land


So, in order to understand how the pillar is made kindly look at the pics below


No, the pillar's not made of wood of course. but again it's made of concrete. The good ol Y12 steel is again used to make the support for the concrete as per the foundation and ground beam. Then, the wood braces are used as molding for the concrete. As I say earlier, this is a pretty labor intensive work. So, not much visual progress is made after 2 days (the latest pics from the site below will be testament to the point)


The wood and steel are getting taller!!
