Rio bars grouted around base to bring up to slab level.
Pipework extruding from slab has membrane surroud to accomodate for slab contraction. Also note the cut lines in slab to allow for walls to be recessed.

Lift core shown once timber formwork has been removed, also in background the white expansion membrane between slab and neighbouring.

This image is how i want my column trasition to look like. The truss overhead is pre-welded to the column and fitted onto concrete columns for a stronger presence at graoud level to accomodate for truck.

The idea is too appear as organic as possible using the steel on the outside and change to a combination of timber and steel on the inside

These top three renders outline my building form. The red indicates the office area & orange the factory. I have started to show the concrete columns and overhead steel structure for the factory. The colunms will join the structure through the use of steel branching its way up to the as per the Enrik Miralles model below.

I propose to make the bottom level a nutral stone material typical to Geelong and use timber in the upper areas to create vents for air circulation.
