Welsh Oak have now completed the frame erection and have now left the site.
They have left another Welsh Oak team to complete the lead work around the windows. They have also been inserting the panels in between the exposed Oak in the external wall or the first floor. The panels are made up of pre cut OSB board with a piece of 140 mm Kingspan attached providing the insulation inside.
Externally there is a breathable membrane attached to the OSB board then a plastic lathe is stapled every 5 – 10 mm over the whole board then to finish the panel of there is a plastic render bead on the edges with a lead dressing on the lower edges making a really neat job.
These panels will finally be coved by Lime Render which has a natural colour and wont need painting.
