Man supervises his site work

The beginning of his video showed the moment the land was being cleared for construction.

He (@official_cally) monitored every phase of the building, as he was always checking on his bricklayer's work progress.

The young landlord was present when the foundation work was done. When the building work progressed to the window level, he also checked on the site.

Full vs half lintel in construction

After lintel had been done, he also assessed the work. Stumps of fallen trees were on his site. He posed in front of his uncompleted building as he awaited the installation of a roof on it.

Another video he did showed the house a full lintel lay as against the common half lintels that are only done on windows and supporting pillars.
