Going Up, Part V

The roof went up on March 30th.  It took about four hours to go from the fist crane lift to the roof as shown in the last picture.

I-Beams – unlike the McMansion that was built next door to me, the main support beams will be steel rather than composite wood.  You can also see the crew finishing up the water supply and sewer connections.

The following picture was taken during the positioning of support beams for the outer walls of the first floor.  They were anchored using bolts that were sunk into the concrete when the basement was poured.

The following pictures show the results of the carpentry work for the day.  I think there were four carpenters plus the crane operator working on site.
