We begin to install weatherboard last week.Steps:
1.Find out "datum".The datum is the weatherboard directly above doors and windows. This
weatherboard have a gap with head flashing 5 mm.
2.Transfer the datum level to building corners.
3.String line cavity batten at bottom.Make cavity batten the same level.
4.Measure and mark storey rod
5.Mark every one of weatherboard level on cavity batten,using storey rod.
6.Install the "datum" weatherboard first(above windows and doors).
7.Install the bottom weatherboard,then building up.

New semster
We came back to unitec last week, some classmates haven't appeared,I hope they all will come next week,especially william.
We did some work for preparing installation weatherboard, checking cavity battens and building wrap.When we setted out the datum of weatherboard and transferred it,we found some windows and doors need to adjust,I wonder if we could mark the level of the weathboard above windows and doors before we installed the head flashings and vermin trip,I am not sure, I just feel we waste some time at this step.Anyway,we will continue build our house next week.
