Adobe house renovation – Workshop wall demolition

Unfortunately the wall of the workshop was very damaged.

In the end, demolition became the only solution.

Interesting cavities were also found when crushing the inner plaster ...

Not a nice sight. Not to mention the cracks.

On the roof it looks like the end of the workshop was about 15cm down (it is already raised a bit here)

The lift was made with a 5 tonne car lifter, moving from beam to beam.

If I lifted a lot at the same time, that beam would break ...

You can also see the crack on the wall, which was caused by the sinking of the workshop.

Unfortunately, the firewall was built on beams and too heavy, so it had to be demolished.

Demolition starts ...

Roof expanded :).

I selected the bricks separately, because I still need some places.

This is the demolition of the wall ...

The plaster was removed here too.

There was an old bricked door here ...

It was interesting above the window too ....

The debris is partially removed.

The bricks are sorted separately, leached.

There is more and more of it. In the meantime, the shuttering stones for the base were made there.

The roof now hangs only on the supports.

At that time, I had no idea that this would be the case for months, but later ...

The debris is running out.

Meanwhile, the walnut tree had to be transplanted because it was on its way and I didn't want it to go wrong.

The new place:

There was also a hiding pet amidst the big demolitions.
