Back Fill and Floor Trusses

September 3, 2014 Wednesday

 With the piping inspected we filled the trenches around the house.  Then we continued to back fill around the house.  The carport was filled with gravel that was compacted in lifts.  The dirt line shows in the photos below. 

The chimney is completed with cinder block. Waiting for the decorative  rock to be installed. Doug, Ruth and Helen drove around town to look at rock on houses to pick the color for the chimney.

The floor trusses are going in.  Before setting the trusses Doug built two pony walls the length the house. The trusses will sit on the walls. The trusses span the full width of the house.  The bedroom trusses are shown in the photo below.
