In week 7 the contractor started preparing for the slab- to be done in week 8 they started by placing the 3*2 poles on the shortest side of the room. They added the poles as a support structure. For sides that would require minimal plaster, we placed marine boards e.g. below the staircase, on the chimney as well as in some of the open beams or columns.
For the rest of the areas, we dressed the beams and columns in the 6*1 timber. once the woodwork was set to be the support structure, the fundis laid the trappers in readiness for the works that would be done in week 8
