Good construction progress during the school brake

Exactly documented by constructional engineer Udo Klemenz

Dear friends of Diospi Suyana, this week the Colegio Diospi Suyana was on break. Most missionaries with school aged children use the days off school for a short vacation trip. That has had an impact on the hospitals services as well, so a few surgeries were cancelled and fewer patients were on the wards. We construction people used the opportunity to do the noise intensive work of chiseling down the pillars on the concrete ceiling over the ward (2. phase of the construction).

The brick work in the first phase are coming to an end slowly. The supporting walls are nearly ready. The non-supporting walls in the bathrooms of the two-bed rooms have a lot of corners and take a little longer accordingly.
The window and door lintels are all poured in place and right now shorings are being encased and poured-in-place. Two people are preparing the panels for the encasing of the ceiling.

In a part of the back garden we leveled and compressed the top soil and poured a thin layer of concrete. Here we will store the materials, that we need to make the concrete for the ceiling. In this part of the garden we will set up the elevator for the concrete as well.
The brick work of phase two has already started as well.

Sending greetings from Curahuasi and wishing you a nice and blessed weekend. Udo
