We talking "sam week" or "earth week" here?

It's made by Seele - a German firm. We have been all over the glass here for awhile now.

Oh ok sorry, I knew i should have hopped into this thread the second I saw it going up!

Not Seele actually, but sedak. Click for our front page story on the glass.

What are those blue strips currently on the windows for?

Weatherstripping to seal the joints. They will be covered up by trim.

They look like 6 x 6's posts bolted together is sets of 2's. I'm not sure what they're for though.

They typically spread the load of the mobile crane on the concrete slab. Since they have to get that crane in closer to the elevator core to install the glass, they may also use it to bridge the slab opening for the crane outrigger (extendable support).

It doesn't look like much from here. Then I suspect if wasn't for all the rebar fill, I could swim in it. Not that would be advisable to do so...

I've never seen a transfer poured like that before?

 

[Benito]

Today.

 

[The Preservationist]

I'm guessing that the full weight of the transfer slab was a bit too much for the existing two floors below to support and that the first pour here once cured will support the second pour.

How does that work since you end up with a cold joint midway through the slab
