30th October

Most of the progress in the past 2 weeks has been made in the bowels of the new building so the appearance of the exterior has not changed very much since the last report and will not do so until the reinforced concrete floor beams for the upper floors are craned into position during w/c 19th November (fingers crossed).   The photo below, taken on 30th October, shows the preparations for the stairs from the ground floor to the costume store on the lower ground floor level.   They are to be cast within the next few days.

The latest delay is because of problems with the design and supply of the reinforced concrete floor beams which sit on top of the steel RSJs.  However, this has now been resolved and the beams are due in a couple of weeks (fingers crossed).  Most of the design issues have now been resolved and we are now in the hands of the suppliers and the builders.  And Mother Nature - she could throw a spanner in the works! This latest photograph was taken on 19th October

9th October

This is the latest photo taken on a very wet Tuesday.  Not a lot of progress in the last fortnight, but every little helps.  At least the steelwork is on its way up!!
