Wood studs and beams are being framed in on the 3rd floor of the 1964 addition. The original plan was to install cinder blocks, but the project engineer put a kibosh to that when the original manufacture of the floor joist system was not able to find records to confirm it the floor was designed to carry that kind of load. The modified plan calls for wood studs to be used, along with a handful of wood beams, to carry the load of the roof structure.
The heating and air conditioning work is being finished on the 1931 building. For the first time, the entire building will be able to experience the joy of central air. Each room is equipped with its own fan coil unit — which will provide cool air in the summer and fall and heat during the winter.
The 1st floor and basement ceilings have been finished and painting will begin next week. All of the rough-ins on the 1964 addition should be complete next week and ready for inspection.
Ceilings and drywall work is complete in the living room.
Fancoil units have been installed in the 1931 building. This is taken in room 401 (old 4-South) — southwest corner.
Drywall will start next week in the dining room.
Thanks for all the updates D!
