Insulation and 'Rough-in'
(8/29/11)

The 'rough-in' has been completed along with the interior concrete allowing the wall insulation to be installed. The Township elected to have spray in insulation to encourage energy efficiency.

Roofing

The trusses have been installed, and are waiting for the installation of the roof boards. Soon they will be starting on the installation of the roofing, and the other trades will begin on the wiring, mechanical, and plumbing.

Framing started the end of the first week in August. The West side of the building has a full foundation and floor trusses. The East side will have a concrete floor.

Foundation foam and basement floor
(7/25/11)

Today the foam insulation for the foundation was installed and the floor poured. The foam will help increase the energy efficiency of the hall. Drain tiles have also been put into place to help keep control surface water. After the walls have cured enough, they will be braced and back-filled.
