site visit 9.20.07
the cleanest job site i'd been to all year.
backframing is complete down to the existing foundation wall and the new LVL beam installed. the new structural system rests on a temp. lolly column while we wait for the new footings to be prepped and 6x6 timber posts to arrive onsite.
leaky old sheathing on the exterior walls
structural reinforcement solutions produced by dave and carlos's collaborative effort...
post to foundation:
new joist hangers and sistered-joists frame into the engineered beam:
much discussion is had about the future of the now luxuriously tall and heated "garage" space.
dave's econoline with old jessie leashed to it couldn't make the house look anymore canadian.
good dog. i love constructino site dogs - they are so patient.
a quick rendering of the rear elevation with the existing cantilevered upper deck remaining to act as an eave over the new "rear entrance" through the "garage/mudroom".
we will definitely want to mock up a few versions of the cedar slat screen with varying slat depths and spaces in between. it is almost impossible to know what works best on paper...maybe we could start with smaller scaled models.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
Maxxon's Therma-Floor® is a gypsum underlayment designed to pour over hot water tubes or electric heating cables. It acts as the thermal mass for any radiant floor. Therma-Floor encases the tubes or cables in crack resistant, noncombustible gypsum. Its special formula resists breakdown to 150ºF (66ºC). And because it's poured only 1-1/4" (32 mm) thick, the heating system is more responsive and more comfortable.
