10th Inspection


Pano View. AS you can see there is progress with most of the columns already cast

Close-up of the columns already cast

These are formed, ready to cast

Sub floor progress

As soon as the forms are taken off, and the concrete of the columns is still fresh, they are sprinkled with cement so the plaster later on will stick to them.

This is the view from the pool.

I try to take this picture from the same spot every time so you can see the progress.

Here we have a closer shot of the walls going up.

This is the foundation at the main terrace, ready for the steel to go up.
