Plates
Got a late start the first day. So I just laid out the plates and marked them for the studs.

The Studs
I bought the precut 92 5/8 in studs so I could save the time of cutting my own.

Southeast Corner
The first 2 sections of walls. I was going to do the entire East wall in one piece, but I was working alone and that wall is 18' 8" long. I figured it would be easier to raise it in sections.

Blocking
The walls would be pleanty strong alone, but I wanted to make sure it was going to last a long time. So I blocked it to the steel.

Framing done
Here is a shot of all the framing done. Well, at least the bathroom. There is still more walls to go in later.

Another angle of framing
Here is the completed framing from another angle. I also noticed that in this photo, it looks like I used non-pressure treated wood for the plate on the West wall. But that is just a 2X6 laying on the floor. All plates are PT.

Ceiling
Here it is with the ceiling on. That thing was HEAVY! I used blocking, rope and my engine hoist to get it up there.
