We had some major deliveries this week, including more
ductwork, and two trucks of drywall and insulation. We also had a boom truck on
site to lift some of the ductwork above the parapet and onto the roof. We
watched the first part of the lift, and Roger and Pat explained the hand
signals and some of the safety procedures that they were using. We worked with
the guys from Ensroth for a few days to work out a lift plan and schedule, and
we had to clear out the parking lot of most of the cars to give the operator
ample space to do his job.
Besides the lift, we are trying to get the adjacent garage
ready for when the GM workers come back from shutdown. This includes painting
the infilled block, finishing the ductwork and plumbing in the garage, and
moving the barricades that lead from the basement to the garage. On top of
this, we had a planned power outage today, so we had to set up temporary
generators and lighting. It’s fairly hectic, but our superintendent, Pat, is handling
it extremely well.
Here are some pictures of the lift from earlier this week. One of the guys from Ensroth on the ground was in constant radio communication with their team on the roof, and he was using hand signals to tell the boom operator what to do.
