Thursday, January 16, 2013: We took a "field trip" out to watch the crane set trusses. |
It was awfully tall for a "little" crane. |
The builders had "all hands on deck": 2 men on the ground; 3 on top of the house and 1 crane operator. |
The Inspectors arriving onsite to give their approval. Today they brought a cousin, who's only had 2 years experience in inspecting things. |
New view coming up the driveway. |
Facing the garage. |
See how the crane's wheels are suspended in the air... |
Our most experienced Inspector looking on. |
Heading home for lunch. |
Now, trusses from the inside. |
Sadly, we have to cover all this artistry with drywall. (But you and me will know how intricate it used to look.) |
Front of the house. (You could tell by my lawn ornament, yes?) |
Structural Engineer Brother came to take a look-see. Next up: Sheathing the roof. With wind chills like we're expecting this week (ugh), it may take a week or two... |
