Thread: Building a house in Nakon Ratchasima province(Isaan)

....we got some more pics......




...they started with the frames.....or whatever you call them......dunno.....



....the same on the side.....



measuring the windows.......



...looks as the roof for the carpark is done too...and the tiles arrived......so they are not running out of work while we are still in CH.....

we extended our trip,another month on top of it....June was such a rainy month...i ve never seen such a bad-rainy June in my life(apart the last10 years)...
and i asked people...they all said the same thing(including the last10 years)....

..another set of pics we received from PD House.....we are not far off anymore.....gonna fly back to Thailand on the 5.8.16 and back in home town by around mid of month.....



...they started with the eave ceiling....



...laid some bricks around the opening of the septic tank.....



....filling the gaps and holes on the ceiling.....




...some good progress on the eave ceiling.....



...they installed a mozzie-net above the PVC which keeps all the bugs out of the roof space.....hope so....and the air still can circulate through the entire roof....

....and has lots to do....they are waiting for me to put the timber support on the ceiling for the fans,dining-light and smokies.....they did wait for me,coudnt do it.....(been to lazy).....
not exactly sure where all the supports go......yeah.....

so i cut the timber to size i wanted and treated them with some liquid,the bugs-termites dont like....just gave a rough paint over......and mounted them up....





...for the dining light....



living room-dining and kitchen.....


and of course we have some issues.......



they chipped into my conduits and hit-touched the wires a bit.......so i put the Megger(Insulation tester/500V)on and tested it....all good.....



...and fixed it.....so they can close up the hole......


another issue was with the detail on the roof-end from the carpark-shed.....



...as you see its not made really good....the foil will get cracky after a couple of years.....from the sun....

contacted SCG and they said,we have a better option but PD House wont pay for it...mmhh........

.....its gonna be on our punchlist on the end......it has to be fixed proper.....end of this chapter for now.....

....its raining heavy...and it has been....and more to come.....



..looks as there is no slope around here.....2 drains are on the other side,each end...




the grey water service boxes are full of dirt.....



and the big pipes have fair a bit of mud in there too.....looks as the lids havent been on top of the boxes while it was raining.....



..so i dug a bit out of one service box........or is it something else......

....after i finished on the ground floor,i went to the 1. floor where my wife helped me with the timber support.....i had to go up in the roof space and hold the timber,while my wife was drilling the screws in.....i prepared everything beforehand.....
she just had to drill it in to the timber........








..and thats how it looks from where you normally are....



...another room....



...a look down to the eave ceiling while a was upstairs in the roof space....you can see the mozzie-bug net......which should keep insects and bugs out...........
