Well, we're a week and bit in, site prep is complete, and the footers are starting to get prepped. We were hoping to make use of the footer beneath the west wall, but that's not the case.
We're constructing to be beyond what is required for the area, because there is some risk of earthquake. We want our house to be
very earthquake resistant.

| Pouring of the footer begins. We've gone with an upgraded footer that is a metre wide in order to provide as much strength as possible in the event of an earthquake. This will be a building designed to last. |

| Rebar being positioned for the next step. The entire area has been taken down to 1m below grade for the upgraded footer |
