Where did the 130,000 number come from? Seems much too high.

Straight from the contractor, Hayner Hoyt.

Right now I am seriously wondering if some posters actually have jobs....or they are just milling about all day outside the Dome.

It’s called retirement

Girder back in the air...

 

[rocklloyd]

they are most likely adjusting the angle of the rigging so it lifts into place perfectly. Hopefully they are taking good notes for the other side of the dome that's a mirror image.

 

[Moontan]

Yeah, baby!

We have girder I’m imagining Meg Ryan in “ When Harry Met Sally” Yes,Yes

Yeah, baby!

I'm thinking 1 more girder should do the trick

I'll have what you're having.

I'll have what you're having.

But did Mr. Zero know?

 

[Shenexon]

Momentous day approaching...will they put up two today?

 

[SUbear]

Looks like one more box girder to complete the north wall, making this connection looks like it may be a tricky part, not much room for error.

 

[Cusester]

The next brown support is being installed on the west wall.

You can see why they had to move Walt. That back stay extends a long way from the wall. It is going to make operating Walt a whole lot harder, trying to avoid it.

 

[BillSU]

WELL! It's past lunchtime! Let's get some work done. Walt looks like he's not going to do anything sitting there with his rope hoist limp hanging almost to the ground? Activity, Oh Boy.

 

[BillSU]

The white crane op is lowering the hook so something may happen soon. Now there is the white crane with its boom at 12 o'clock high maybe to give Walt's op a guide to where the backstay is? There are two or three spirals between the fences next to Irving. They're either doing something on the northeast side - nothing is happening in Walt's yard, figuring their next move or waiting for another delivery - like I know what I'm talking about. Sure would be nice to see something getting accomplished though.

limp ropes are never good.

The white crane op just got back in his cab could be somethings happening to further the job? Yup the boom is lowering a little - lots or crew walking around the yard not going particularly anywhere. They have that piece of "bent steel" they are maneuvering in the yard, I'm guessing here perhaps part of another back stay???

weather friday really in flux.. some models have a 10-15 in storm

Guess it's which report you look at. The reports I put up are Accuweather which are usually reliable.

 

[BillSU]

Looks like they have a small pile of the pieces laying on top of the ties perpendicular to the red storage shed. they are doing something to one end of the steel close to the back of Walt's right crawler tread.
