They finished the structural steel for the high roof on Thursday. Today the framers put the sheathing on the lower roof and added a wooden beam to the structure for the high-roof. You can see this work just starting in Picture 1, which was taken Friday morning, and completed in Picture 2, which was taken after the workmen had left Friday afternoon. It is not clear why there is a steel beam on the right (western) end of the north side of the high roof and a wooden beam on the left (eastern) end. Perhaps is is simply that the span on the right side is a foot or two longer.

Picture 1 – Friday morning. They are just beginning to put the sheathing on the lower roof.

Meanwhile, back at the condo, Ted was busy with a smaller building project: adding the storage loft shown in Picture 3 to the garage of the condo. Somehow we just have too much stuff!
