*FLOORING
When the concerete had set we now need to put on the Boundry joists, bearers and floor joists. To do this we read the plans and specifications, this will give us the length and sizes along with location of where to put the bearers and joists.
It is important to make sure that the joists are in the right places to allow the floor sheets to be fixed onto, to do this we use either the in and over or the centre to centre measuring methods.
At this stage it is extremely important to ensure that this section of flooring is square and straight otherwise the house will be constructed incorrectly and cause a number of problems. to do this once the floors are squared and straightened we put a brace across the corners to keep it in place.
