Meanwhile, sheathing of the roof and walls continued on exterior of the building. HVAC ducts were installed in the walls near the chapel area and in the attic spaces above the building entrances. The process of roughing in the plumbing lines and installing wall outlets continued as the plumbers and electricians worked throughout the building.

Concrete forms were placed and rebar was tied in preparation for the concrete pour. Large sections of the parking area were completed as concrete was poured and finished.

While work was being performed on the parking areas, framing crews continued to frame and sheath the exterior walls of the building. Roof trusses and rafters have now been erected and placed over the majority of the roof areas.
