Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 3428797, member: 27"] Agree. WB has supplied some jacks for the project but they seem too small time to handle the job of lifting the roof. I don’t think there is any question the roof will be lifted using strand jacks. The big question are, when will they appear? And how will it work? This video, from a stadium in Capetown South Africa, shows the strand jacks in action better than any other I have seen. Check out around 59 seconds in for some good shots of the strands. [MEDIA=youtube]0AndCw2cT-4[/MEDIA] Here is a still from the video that I think shows how the jacks will be set up on the crown truss.

Don’t think we can proceed until the jacks are in place and ready to go. [/QUOTE]
