Basic steel skeleton for flat- and pyramid roof ready.

The last couple of days we spend on cutting, grinding, anchoring and welding the basic structure for the pyramid roof and the flat roof. Also the wire mesh for the top concrete layer is prepared now. 

It's great to work with the green laser to get the floor spirit level on the millimeter. Working with that instrument in the early evening shows the best results. During daytime we have our Bosch Professional tripod with spirit level. 

We are working now on painting (grey oxide primer) the steel (against rusting). Finally you will not see any steel at the end because all steel is part of the inner wall masonry. We also are installing the sewage pipes. 

Next step is placing the formwork for pouring concrete for the top layer of the floor. After that welding the pyramid roof steel structure and bricklaying. Enough to do and the weather is fine (but still very warm with temperatures of 34 degrees during middays. 

Kadhow... meditating at the Labyrinth.
