Insulation delivery & Whacking sub base

Yesterday Jaimin started early and met the insulation delivery driver on site (who very nearly got stuck). After removing the 3 stuck sheep from the barn, they stacked the insulation. Supplies are coming in thick and fast...

In the evening he collected the compactor plate or whacking plate and headed up to the plot. He did some more raking, levelling and then started up the whacker. This compacts the sub floor to make sure nothing will give way when load is applied. The vibration is pretty strong!

Whacking plate
The north west corner was still wet and sludgy from the rain, which left a gluey, batter like consistency in the earth. Hopefully it will dry out soon but it's in a protected part of the building with little wind or sun.
