During the first half of day 3 we removed the screed off the floors using a jackhammer. We continued with the floors of the two bedrooms on the first floor. Other team members followed after and leveled the broken floor using chisels and hammers. The other half of the team was responsible for collecting rubble and disposing of it outside.

The second half of the day we went to site. Where we spent our time digging and emptying trenches using spades, shovels and pickaxes. We used spades to make the sides of the trenches more straight, shovels to empty out the trenches and pickaxes to dig out hard rock. Instructions were to dig ensuring that the trench bottoms were the exact width.

This was a very insightful activity. We very often underestimated hard labor. But after this activity we developed respect for it. It was not easy but getting an understanding of what the laborers experience when they are on site is so helpful to us going forward in our careers. 

This was towards the end of the day, we had been joined by two other students from teams Delta and Golf. That aspect played a role in helping us work with and manage people from different teams.
