Day 34 - Floor Trusses Arrive

The floor trusses arrived today, but the panels for the walk out haven't arrived yet.  Here is what things looked like at the beginning of the day.

Fortunately the walkout panels arrived.  Jamie Aho and his crew from Aspen Building & Design began to put up the walkout & bearing walls.  Harry was very excited about the latest piece of heavy equipement to show up on the job site, the lift!

Yeah, I'm not sure what's going on here either!


Once the walls were up, the trusses were ready to be set.  They are 18" top cord bearing trusses.  The top of the truss sits on the foundation wall, and the rest of the truss hangs down inside the foundation.
