week 8. we started work on the floor joists. cutting and nailing joists and fixing into position, beginning from the middle bearer. full depth noggins are then nailed into position to stiffen the joists and stop then overturning. full depth flitch plates are fixed over the middle to strengthen the floor for relocation. floor openings are also created for wc and shower waste outlets.
