3rd floor coming along, light tunnel and stairs

The third floor build is coming along. The building of the utility room and bathroom is underway, as well as the above-grade finishing of the light tunnels that provide light and ventilation to the floors below.

The bottom beam is now poured where the bathroom and utility room are, and rebar for the corner posts is added.

The brickwork around the light tunnel is filling out

It's up to the 60cm mark- it will need to be railing height 1m when complete

Another shot of the east light tunnel. The formwork for the next round of stairs is happening off in the corner as well
