LEED or get out of the way!

Last week marked a turning point for the build, the walls and roof went up. You would not believe the change that happened in a four day period.

Day 1: Habitat and YPAL volunteers raised all of the exterior and interior the walls on the first floor and installed sheathing on the exterior.

Day 2: MCM (Mountjoy Chilton Medley) and IMI Concrete volunteers installed the floor joists on the second floor and raised most of the walls for the second floor.

Day 3 Summit Energy volunteers raised the remainder of the second floor walls and started putting up the roof trusses.

Day 4 E-on and Frost Brown Todd volunteers raised the roof trusses and put up the roof sheathing.

By the end of  last weekend Wendy’s house was  “blacked in” (felt paper on the roof).

Don’t come out to our site to stand around, you might just get run over!

Feel free to stop by and see the progress for yourself. 

PS: Because Habitat has pre-constructed the walls in panels off site the project will earn 4 LEED Credits.
