Here we go with a little update.

Control room window installed and painted. Airport grade window glass still to come (two different thinknesses).

Tracking room B (also doubles as pre-production/rehearsal) gets and extra layer of Rockwool (100 Kg/cubic meter density) before the plasterboard/homaterm/platerboard structure is floated on the new floor.

The only armed concrete pillar/column we couldn't avoid/get around gets layers of sheetblok.

Wooden floor joists outside the room ready to go in.

Floor joists get u-boated thanks to Keith @ KMR!

Slowly progressing, never stopping, we are all having nightmares of floating floors in our dreams at the moment ....

The smaller tracking/rehearsal room is almost done. Floating floor is finished. There is an inner aluminum frame up and plasterboard almost done (not in the pictures yet)
The plasterboard framing/walls are on neoperene strips (on a floating floor. The 20cm concrete filled clay blocks of the outher shell are also neoprene floated on a concrete perimeter ring)

We also just started building the floating floor for the main tracking room.
Joists, joists. joists oh joy!
