Building Update #25: Some Plumbing, Some Electrical, and Some Roof

Since our last update, Jake has been working hard at the structural steel design for our door entries, my plumbing design, and we have both been working on the electrical design.  Pulling victory from the jaws of defeat, Jake was able to convert my not-quite-right plumbing plan that was designed for use with all AAVs (air admittance valves) to a conventionally vented system.

We are working on the final lighting and electrical layouts, but in the meantime Jake, his Dad, and my Dad put together some sweet airtight electrical outlet boxes for the exterior lights and exterior outlets. 

Our roofing and fasteners finally came in, so with the help of friends and family, Jake has been finishing our roof one 18 foot by 3 foot corrugated panel at a time. 

The roofing panels ready to go up.

The panels will get pulled up the ladder, and then pulled up to the roof.

My Dad and Jake set the custom jigs they built to hold the roof panels in place while they are being screwed down.
