Even on a Sunday, the energy at the site was high!Day before Yesterday, we achieved a key construction milestone by completing:

This sets a strong and precise base as we gear up for reinforcement and footing concrete.

Site Conditions on Sunday:
- Weather: Pleasantly cool at 24°C, partly cloudy and rainy

Work Quality: On point, with good finishing across all pits

I'm thrilled to see things taking shap brick by brick. Stay tuned for the next phase as we prep for reinforcement and concrete casting
