Bigpic – Crane works on Villa Solar

On Sutarday we made big progress in the assembly works: four modules were craned into their position, only the summer wall missing – shall arrive soon.

When we arrived we saw a bunch of cranes and “floating houses”.

Suspicious tracks

The main modules of the house were transported in 5 days by two vans. Additional three vans are transporting the summer wall and other structures from Budapest to Madrid.

On site we are getting ready to start. The protagonists of the day are the crane, the rocker, and of course, team in shift.

The house’s sides were protected by OSB panels during the transport.

They had to be mounted so the house can be craned to its place.

The organizers can’t wait to the see the houses they’ve seen only on images and renders.

The last moment before the great conjuncture: the lifting-rocker over the house.

Pozsi gives the sign, start the lifting!

Fortunately the weather was good, otherwise it would have been very difficult to strap the pieces precisely in place (-if it’s windy) .

Approaching the terrain the prescision adjustment was done manually.

There are only a few inches, and firdt piece is put in place.

“Air traffic control” again, and then…

we continue with the next part to be craned…

In this case, the entire team surrounds the house, and manually adjust the module to its place with straps.

The module is in place, the rope is resting.

Without whom we would not lift anything.

And without whom the house would be elsewhere now. (Gergő, the temporal Spanish interpreter)
