It looks like the daily ration of concrete was used for the west thrust block. I don't think we are going to see too much of the south stand going up unless they set up another camera.

Looks like we are finally getting a little bit of work done in front of the camera today at last.

Grrr. Give the job to me and a dozen paddy's and we'd have the bugger built by now!

South Stand is all in-situ - up to 27 rows cast on site as per lower section of east stand.

how is the terrace shuttering held in place as each step is poured ?

There is quite a few tons of concrete per step onto a sloping surface which in addition to it own weight exerts a lot of of force onto the shuttering , yet i does not appear to be fixed mechanically each time, it just down to friction ??

See detail in pic.

Shutter is drilled and fixed at 'A' with an adjustment plate adjacent for support / level alignment. An arm is extended over the step and onto the slope in front to support in the other direction.

Picture paints a thousand word, thanks Natterjack !

NJ legend.

Looks like they have walked off the job at 14:30, not a bugger to be seen!

Today has got to be the most boring day yet. Fiddling around endlessly with the thrust wall blocks, all ready for another step on the east stand terrace, but no pug, and at 2.30pm not a single bugger visible on the site. Has the club defaulted on a stage payment d'you think?

Well your a ray of sunshine ain't you.

Got a feeling they are all getting ready in preparation for the demolition of the uni building,

Thanks for that. I'm feeling a little better now.

 

[Curious Orange]

Ooh! Crowds watching the concrete being poured into the thrust wall. How exciting!!

 

[Gazwag]

what's this a school visit to witness a marvel of construction

Looks like they are digging up the foundation thingys for the South stand steel work? I think it was installed ages ago and has been buried since.
