July was like June in that it was all about concrete, but with a move from Slab on Grade (SOG) to Post Tensioned (PT) deck work. A PT deck is a concrete deck with reinforcing steel cables that allows for the construction of longer, stronger, and more durable decks, wherein the steel cables are hydraulically pulled to stress the concrete and create compression within the slab. While the SOG crew continues across each building, the PT deck crew follows quickly behind. Over the course of the month, Building C (Broadrock) moved up a floor from the completed SOG up to a full PT deck on the second floor, which was done in 3 pour phases. Following that, framing quickly mobilized and began, with a full floor of residential unit walls up by the end of the month on that building.
As concrete passes the halfway point in their main SOW, framing is ramping up and will be the primary focus for the next 6-9 months.
