Before. This is how BirGorkha looked when I was there in February.

After. This is how it looks today with completed second floor. To find out who is living (rent free) on the second floor click on the news from BirGorkha thread.

I'm sure it's just the picture but the completed factory looks like the "Leaning factory of Nepal"

:
What are the outside walls made from Bro.?

Perhaps one benefit will be a nee for less heat upstairs during the winter since all the forges will be running everyday downstairs.

Another thing that I would bet on is that _No_ building permits are required, how about building codes?

Brick and mortar outside walls -- sometimes inside, too, or cement. Wood in almost never used except for window and door frames. Even kitchen cabinets and coungters are often formed concrete with wood (or no!) doors. I am not sure how they partitioned off the second floor. Looks like they used corrugated steel for roof.

No code, no permit -- just toss it up. There is both good and bad in this.
