Today we took delivery of the pre-cast concrete floor slabs for our Thip Thani project. Once all in place, a re-inforcing wire mesh will be laid over the top and a the final concrete floor surface will be poured over the top.

We attempted to excavate the footings for our latest project a couple of days ago….. unfortunately, we encountered a rocky seam about half a meter down full of huge rocks that proved to be too much of a challenge for the small excavator that we were using. The reason for initially using a small excavator is that it produces much neater holes that require less manual ‘dressing’ prior to pouring the concrete footings. Today we are continuing with a larger excavator that is more up to the task of removing the large rocks!

In January I posted images of a concept for a modern style two bedroom home. Since then, we have worked with the client to develop this concept into a final design and a full set of engineering drawings. Planning permission has now been granted and today we began clearing the plot of land and marking it out for construction. The lucky Buddhist day for the first columns to be erected is 4th May. Between now and then we shall be digging the footings and preparing all of the column reinforcement structures.

We recently completed the design of a low cost 2 bedroom house in a 1.5 storey configuration for a customer who has his own construction team ready to build for him. He came with a basic idea of the style of home he wanted and we developed this into a floor plan and exterior in keeping with this style.
Project: Fao Rai - 2 Bedroom Home

It has been a busy month, hence the lack of updates on the blog! We have all but completed our project in Fao Rai. All that remains is a little bit of finishing to the wood work. The following pictures were taken about a week ago before clearing the site. I shall post a full video of the interior & exterior in about a week.
