2015_12-03 - 2015_12-22 - KLA Construction Progress

Weather in Kosovo has continued to be favorable for the construction team.  The goal of closing in the building by the end of December seems like more of a possibility and an answer to prayer than we anticipated.  The final steel work is being complete in order for roof panels to be installed.  The project will then sit for the winter allowing settlement of the earthwork and continued curing of the concrete.

2015_11-16 - 2015_12-02 - KLA Construction Progress

Work continues on Phase 1 of the Kosovo Leadership Academy.  The November weather has been beautiful allowing the construction team to work nearly 30 days without rain.  At this time most of the concrete and block work has been completed and the focus is now on getting the building enclosed.  The goal is to be enclosed by mid-December so that when winter weather arrives the building will remain dry inside.
