November 6-7 ~ Our builder (rough carpenter), Steve Keysor (Keysor Builders, Harrison, MI) and a crew of 3 other men travelled down to the property to attach our subfloor system to the foundation for 2 days. They worked on placement of the sill seal, sill plates (attached with metal anchor strapping instead of anchor bolts) , LSL (laminated strand lumber) rim boards, LVL (laminated veneer lumber) support beams, engineered I joists (iLevel Trus Joist Silent Floor System) and 6 steel jackposts (3" and 4" diameter) required in our basement to support and evenly distribute the weight bearing load of the home. They attached all of the plywood sheathing the next day. Pretty exciting stuff.
