The news is full of predictions about coming hurricanes, so Friday we were focused on battening down. The open back wall of the kitchen got covered in plywood, making the house dark and gloomy. There is plastic sheeting on the outside of the plywood now as well as on the inside.All the q-deck was was put into place - a very noisy operation! It was attached to the beams by shooting low-velocity pins, according to DW, so that any hurricane-force winds won't sail it into the neighbors' gardens. More visibly, the crew lifted the re-bar up onto the deck by hand, and laid it out in a grid. It will reinforce the concrete. JG climbed up to inspect.
Speaking of visible, thanks for your comment KC! If anyone couldn't see the slant from patio to garden level before, the q-deck makes it really easy to see.
