The tamping team at work.
The shuttering team.
This usually consists of two skilled joiners, sometimes supported by
a semi-skilled person. The shuttering team is of course responsible for setting up shutter-
ing around the timber frame ahead of the placing team. But, as work progresses, this role
also involves taking down shuttering from cast walls that have taken their initial set, and
moving it on to the place where they are next required. It is crucial that this team does its
work accurately if the finished hempcrete walls are to be straight and plumb, as any errors
will incur costs later, in extra work at the plastering stage.
Note that some members of each of the four teams outlined here need to be flexible, able
to shift between the different roles as required (see right).
