Good-day my fellow #hivers, welcome to another #Creativity-Sunday, this is the continuation of a sequential post on IMO ODOURLESS PIG HOUSE, last week work schedule at the worksite was about Pegging of the plan, Digging out the pegged plan, Casting with concrete and Setting of Bricks on the casted dugged plan. This week schedule is about another set of work as we work towards getting the project done.

Setting of IRON POLE
The first thing we did the week was to get some Iron poles, the prices of each at the market was #22,500 a piece and we got 28-pieces that's roughfully about #630,00, then we contacted the Welder to come around so as to get the #Iron-pole into the needed sizes.
First we put poles at the four #angle of the building, having dug the edges to a dept of #3ft so it will be tightly held by concrete when it's time for it.

At the higher edge, we dug a depth of 3ft, then measured #8ft after foundation, meaning at the lower edge we need two iron pole length of #11ft, while at the lower sloppy edge after digging a depth of #3ft to put the #iron-pole in, then 11ft to meet, together making a length #14ft. The #welder cut into size then we casted the four building angle with concrete.
Next in-line was to tie a line ( a tiny coloured rope) to connect the four iron poles, then with a #Measuring-Tape measure #10ft each the building outside wall and along it's corridors, making it 4 #iron-pole hoziontally and 7 #iron-pole when viewed vertically. We placed each a pole each at the place we have measured #10ft having dugged out #3ft deep into the ground, place it by the #line to know the appropriate height, marking it with an ink stained stick, after the #welder cut to size. Then we casted all the ** iron-poles** (28 iron poles in total), making sure it aligned with the #line tighed to the first four iron-poles at the building edges, and using a **plum to make corrections where the need be for it.

Laying of Bricks
Two days after setting and casting of Iron pole. The next thing was to raise the surroundings of the #Pig-house to four brick coach while the #in-corridor wasn't raise. We make sure the cement was pure due to the fact that pig likes digging and might dug into the walls. So we make a proportion of 10-bucket of #Shocking-Sand to a bag of Cement. A piece of 9-inches brick is sold at #300 here and we got 1500-pieces totally #450,000. A bag Cement according to our proportion of use which was dictated by the type of work done can set 60-bricks, this implies that we will be needing 25-bags of Cement, a bag cost #4000, 25-bags comes at #100,000.
Water is ready available at a nearby stream, we mixed the #Shocking-Sand with Cement and started Sehtting the bricks in place with out tools #handtrowel #line #plum #shovel #bucket #shocking-wood #range-pole.
We would have started the #Plastering work but the #Plumber need to set some pipes in-between the walls, so we await him next week and also the building is yet to be roofed by the #Carpenter, we hope to do that soon when more funds comes in after which we can continue from where we stopped.
Thanks for coming by, it means a lot to me, do have a happy new week.
