Hemcrete® is applied to the walls

Rather than spray applied, the Hemcrete® has been mixed and poured between internal permanent boarding on the timber frame and external removable shuttering to create a wall thickness of 300mm. Once the Hemcrete® is poured into place, the external temporary shuttering is removed and the Hemcrete® left to dry. Significantly faster than brick and block, the Hemcrete was completed in just 4 days. The Hemcrete® sets rapidly and after 24 hours the shuttering can be removed and the wall can start to dry.

Whilst the walls have been drying we have progressed with the battening of the roof ready for the tiling. The windows and doors are being fitted and first fix electrical has started.

Next week internal plastering is due to commence.

We are pleased to say that we are ahead of schedule and the build is going extremely well.
