South Roof Slab

*South* Roof Slab 5 October 02 Update
	This week we completed the roof slab for the south building. We didn't get the stairs to roof done because we ran out of form lumber. We'll have to come back to that next week. This pour was a little more difficult than the others because the roof slants to the west where the rain water will drain off into the sewer.
Early in the morning just after sunrise, the guys were making few last minute adjustments before the concrete pour.		This pour went more slowly because there were two ladders to climb and single lane traffic on the ladders.



Jose begins work on the one-meter high parapet around the roof.	Enrique completed the plumbing for the north house first floor.	Coco completed more interior door frames and windows.
