Tuesday, April 8

They hung the OSB in the main room. I believe it will be covered in carpet. Since this is also a gym, they wanted something stronger than sheet rock. One of the "big boys" decided to test the strength one night and ran into the wall. They say he bounced off nicely.
They sheet rock is in place above the a/c units as a fire break. If we hadn't done that we would have had to have sprinklers above the suspended ceiling as well as below. Drywall was cheaper than more sprinkler heads.
The electrical wiring is in and ready for drywall. The phone and data lines are also in place.
The frount staircase up to the walking track is half in. Jason was there when I took these picture and said we are now waiting on the sprinkler company to run their pipes and for the a/c company to run their duct work. After that is done we can hang drywall and put up the suspended ceilings.

The building we worked on last summer in Missouri used OSB for the bottom 4 ft. of the wall since the room was also to be a recreation area.
