Hard Labour |
24th October, 2007 |
| As we have already mentioned, the work on our new school is almost all carried out by hand. There are no cranes, concrete mixers or any other electrically operated equipment. The wet mortar is mixed by shovel and, by using large rubber baskets carried on the head, the mortar or sand is transported to exactly where it is needed. Concrete is spread using shovels onto ground which has been rammed down hard, again by hand. Instead of steel scaffolding and metal clamps, wooden poles are used which have to be laboriously tied together with ropes. There is plenty of hard work! |
