ᐅ Insulation for Fast-Track Home Construction

Hello everyone,
I have some concerns about my house construction.
We started building about a month ago, and now the shell is almost complete. The roof structure is scheduled to be installed next week. The house is being built with 24cm (9.5 inches) Poroton T12 masonry. Today, I learned from the construction company manager that they want to have the house ready to move into by December, including insulation. The insulation is planned to be 12cm (5 inches) thick mineral wool. I’m worried that this might be moving too fast because there has been heavy rain in recent days, and part of the masonry has become quite wet. What should I be aware of if the house is finished so quickly? Should I wait before moving in and leave the windows open for a few months to let the house dry out, or does anyone have other advice for me?

P.S. We will have a gas boiler with underfloor heating, but no ventilation system.
Best regards, Lukas

That may be true, but not all site managers are bad. Of course, time pressure is much greater today than years ago, but I would trust the site manager.
