Framing…Day 2

By noon today the Tappe crew had the first floor sheeting installed. They will start framing the walls later today. The inside walls are laid out with red snap lines on the floor making it easy to see the floor plan as you wander around on the first floor…really fun stuff!

The framing crew then carefully draws all of the interior and exterior walls on the flooring as a guide for setting the framing in place. This also makes it really easy for the home owners to visualize what it’s going to look like when they are done. mwink

The photo below shows the “L” Shaped House at about 8:30 last night. The wall from the mud room to the garage is the first section standing. The Tappe guys have a bunch of the first floor walls built and ready to tip up into place. It’s exciting to see the house starting to take shape.
