Day 8

Today we started learning about how to build our sleepout and how to create a building profile for the sleepout also the profile helps with the building process of the sleepout. The sleepout is a building thats runs on schedule 1 so that it doesn't need a consent to be built and the profile helps with the layout of the building so that it is in the right position and so that your not building it on an angle or a slope and on a flat piece of land. When building a profile you need a list called a cutting list which is a list you need for all the materials you need to use to make the profile for the building or in this case a sleepout.

The image above is what a profile looks like this is what you use when you layout the building depending on the size of the building you normally would only need four but sometimes you would need a bit more because of the house design on the plans that had been drawn also we learned how to use a dumpy which shows if the section is level or not.
