We had an Excellent workshop this week! The weather was hit and miss but we fared well. We started off with a 18 foot long internal wall that I started forming the week before. Not the easiest wall to start with but that's how things go ;)
 |
| No insulation in this wall, just rebar and electrical boxes and a displacement box for a TV |
 |
| Between the intermediate rain and blistering sun we needed some cover to continue |
 |
| Lots of storms, geez. |
 |
| Just about at the top! |
 |
| Time to cap the wall |
 |
| Tarp it for the night, in case of rain. This wall took us 3 days to ram. |
 |
| The opening! |
 |
| Space for the TV to be inset. |
 |
| Tying Rebar |
 |
| Nailing the toe board down |
 |
| Cutting the foam to fit |
 |
| Here we go |
 |
| More foam and rebar as we go up |
 |
| Getting some extra help :) |
 |
| Working our way up |
 |
| Workshop Selfie |
 |
| Finishing the last lift |
 |
| More rebar |
 |
| Done! |
 |
| While this wall sets over night lets start to form a window wall |
 |
| Need to continue sliding in the whalers, next week. |
 |
| Thank you for participating, look forward to seeing your creations :) |
Wow, impressive work ! Cheers from france ! Would you mind detailed the rebar between the 2 sections of the rammed earth wall (interior and exterior) ? And how did u managed to put the electric wires on the wall !? It is done while ramming ?
