Day 335: 28 September 2013

On this busy Saturday, work began early in the morning as the crew prepared for the arrival of more concrete, this time for the southern end of the substation. 
Because i had a bird's-eye view of all the action and because i was grateful for any distraction from the pile of work that i need to finish this weekend, i took more pictures than usual. 








Meanwhile at the north end, metal beams are in place for what appears to be a ceiling.
See the last two pictures in this series for the progress made in this area during the day.



Reviewing the plans.




The cement truck arrives.






The concrete moves from the cement truck to the pumping truck.

The worker on the ground throws a rope to the worker on the catwalk.




Keeping an eye on things.






After the concrete is poured, the concrete vibrator is used to make it settle evenly.
At the north end, the ceiling continues to take shape.
