You can see the crazy high forms for the transfer slab going in.

They are tentatively going to pour late next week.

@Airboy Thanks for the info! Welcome to the forum, glad to have you here. I've long given up on SSP.

Are they doing it as a single continuous pour? Can that one pump handle it or is there another means to move concrete up? I'm really curious how they do such a large slab at that height.

 

[Airboy]

Supposed to take 24hrs approximately so maybe using one pump. Raft slab was under 12 hours with 4 pumps. I will keep you posted.

For Structural integrity I would have to think that it is done in a single pour.

 

[archited]

I just noticed on one of the time-lapse cams that a second concrete pump has been added at the load transfer floor level.

 

[Daveography]

@archited I don't see it...

 

[archited]

@Daveography -- it was the north view camera and I should have snapzed it when it was extended -- now it is bunched up to the left and under the existing pump arm. I wouldn't recognize it now either. Played the time-lapse backwards and managed to get this shot...

 

[Daveography]

@archited Ah, cool, thanks!

 

[tele75]

So, this is when the residential portion starts? With smaller floor plates, it should gain some momentum, correct?

 

[Daveography]

@tele I think it will probably be at least two (maybe three) more weeks before the pace picks up again, as they have to pour the transfer slab (late next week) and get the forms set up for the new floorplate and column arrangement.

 

[tele75]

I see. I was under the impression the transfer slab was poured, so thanks.

It looks like they are pouring the roof deck portion of the 30th floor today.
