Like most construction project's not everything goes together quickly and easily and the New Norris House is no different. One problem that has arisen while working on siding of the home is that some of the wood blocking that the siding is drilled into was installed improperly. It is important that all the blocking be level so that when siding is being attached it is straight and plum. This is also important to create a clean uniformed facade which is what has been designed.

What about siding?
The New Norris House envisioned facade is becoming more of a reality as warmer weather approaches. Spring is near with the signs of leaves on the trees in Norris TN, hopefully the bitter cold Winter days are behind us. Warmer weather for the New Norris House means lots of work on siding of the home's exterior. With only months left till the end of the semester the deadline to finish the siding and other exterior decks, stairs and ramp is becoming pressing. This week student have been and will continue to work in two group of around three students to help accelerate the siding process. Students will also likely put in some overtime in the next few weeks to take advantage of the nice weather and help finish the home's siding. The siding, a white cedar is being put up in a random pattern. The random pattern is generated using three different board sizes, a 4", 6", and a 8" wide piece of siding.

Is it vinyl siding?? metal siding?? or else?
ReplyDeleteHow did the installation turn out? You’re right; a lot can go wrong, when you install sidings or other materials for that matter. It’s a good thing though that you have a lot of avenues to explore, so that you can ensure that the project goes smoothly. The Internet, for example, can provide you with all the information you need without going too far. :)
