The Aurelian Walls of Hanmer


We have put blockfill (concrete) in the walls, after inserting and tying up length after length of high-tensile steel for excessive reinforcement. It would take a truly biblical earthquake to break this wall down now. The concrete did spill out in a couple places but strangely only on the very last bit of wall we filled. We only lost about 0.2m3 of concrete so it wasn't a biggy.

  1. It's looking good. Starting to take shape. Bit like a big lego house hey?!

  2. Heya oldest bro! Yup. But it's the only Lego part, the rest are frames - big ones at that!
