i guess they are using central area as staging space for now... will probably get things up several floors b4 they slip form the core.

Thanks drum118. The pipe was originally placed above ground along the alleyway curb. It was later covered with concrete. When I noticed it was gone I assumed it was removed because the pump isn’t able to push the cement any higher. I didn’t realize the pipe was simply buried deeper. Anyway, it was a roundabout way of asking how high up can cement be pumped? There must be a limit??

I can't remember the certain height but there will be booster pumps as the tower climbs, since the pumping pressure from the street will drop with the height. I believe when I was on the project we calc'd that just to get to L85 there will be a float of 1 or 2 truck loads of concrete in the cycling in the pipes just to keep them wet, the pressures will be crazy. I think we planned 3 lines just incase as well, not sure if that is still the case
 
The plans we saw earlier do not match the construction.

the interior columns int he plans are all at a normal angle to the elevator core, but the interior columns on site are all parallel to one another...

5 jaw-dropping facts about The One in Toronto...

FACT 1: 4300 MT of structural steel (that’s the equivalent in weight
to 700 elephants) was used to build The One.

FACT 2: If you laid the 7200 MT of rebar, used to build The One,
end to end, you’d have enough material to wrap halfway
around the Earth.

FACT 3: 130,000 MT of concrete, which is the equivalent to
8900 concrete trucks, was used to bring The One to life.

FACT 4: The One is the first TMD in Canada and it’s designed
for total residential comfort.

FACT 5: Canada’s First Supertall building and the tallest building
ever constructed in Canada since the erection of its predecessor
in 1975 (43 years ago).

Might want to ease up on the past-tense language but also hoping they get chance to up those numbers with a new height approval.

Rebar signs of reaching the mythical 9th floor that has seemingly eluded us for the ages?
