- Casa Jason
Casa Jason 2015 The process normally starts with a client purchasing one of our many properties. In the images below our client has purchased a rural farm with fantastic views of the Arenal Volcano, the lake, and the surrounding mountains. Then the LAREC team works closely with client to create the best possible design, homesite, and layout. Once everyone is happy with the design and layout we begin by clearing the building site. Now that we have a suitable building site, it is time to start building something. So we begin with the footers. Work is Work, but on a day like this you have to stop and enjoy the view. Then we have some days that aren't so nice, but it is great to see the block work getting started. In Costa Rica the typical methode of construction is block between solid concrete column. We will lay block on top of the footings to the desired height and then come back and pour the columns. Another beautiful day with a fantastic view of the volcano. Now we can see the block walls reaching the height of the first floor. Next we will pour the columns, the header( or viga), and will start the second floor. Another beautiful day with gorgeous views of the mountains and volcano. In this image you can see the columns being formed up, when the columns are complete we will start the steel framing for the second floor. Now that the concrete work is complete on the second floor, it's time to get the roof on. Here we are starting the steel framing of the roof structure. Once the roof framing is complete, we put down the roof panels, then start closing in the overhangs and facias. Here the workers are starting the stucco on the facia and the eves. Next we will start stucco in the walls. Once the roof is on we can start making some progress on the interior. Here is an image of the ceiling framing for the tongue and groove wood ceiling. More progress being made on the interior. Here we are starting the madera negra natural wood column, very nice! Starting the lower roof. This is going to be a fantastic veranda. The master bedroom balcony is going to have a great view. The interior finishes are looking very nice. Things are moving along well. The lower roof is now on and the gutters on the upper roof.
