1965 Dublin registered ESB Scammell Constructor (BZI 848) at Dunkereen, Innishannon, Cork 6th June 2004.
La Col·legiata Basílica de Santa Maria, o com es diu popularment, La Seu, és l'edifici més emblemàtic del gòtic religiós de Manresa. Corona el Puig Cardener, bressol històric de la ciutat, des d'on es contempla un bon panorama sobre el riu. Ocupa l'espai de construccions religioses i civils més antigues. És, sens dubte, la imatge més clàssica i bonica de la ciutat.
El primer nom fa referència al capítol de canonges que acull, mentre que de la denominació de basílica correspon al títol atorgat l'any 1886 pel papa Lleó XIII. L'any 1931 fou declarada monument històrico-artístic de caràcter nacional. Jeràrquicament, és una concatedral, ja que la diòcesi de Vic, tot i tenir la residència del bisbe a Vic, és bicèfala, amb dues catedrals i dos capítols de canonges: Manresa i Vic.
L'església de Santa Maria de la Seu apareix documentada amb el nom de Santa Maria de Manresa l'any 890. El 999, les tropes musulmanes d'Al-Mansur la van devastar, com tota la ciutat. No fou fins a l'any 1000 quan el comte Berenguer Ramon I i la seva mare, la comtessa Ermessenda, juntament amb Oliba, bisbe de Vic, van restituir l'antiga dotació de l'església. Es conclou doncs que abans de la construcció romànica del segle XI, precedent a l'actual edifici gòtic, n'hi havia hagut dues d'anteriors, preromàniques.
Pel que fa a les restes d'aquesta època destaquen del segle XI, un conjunt de quatre arcs recolzats en sengles columnes dobles amb capitells ornamentats amb elements geomètrics i vegetals, que corresponien a la galeria, disposada a manera de porxada; i del segle XII, el portal, al costat de la porta nord de la basílica i la talla policromada representant Crist a la creu, guardada a la Museu Històric de la Seu.
La Seu va ser construïda en el mateix indret de l'antiga església romànica de Santa Maria, que s'havia fet petita per a una ciutat que va demostrar una empenta extraordinària durant el segle XIV. Com totes les obres d'aquest tipus els treballs van durar molt anys, amb diverses fases d'activitat i d'alentiment de les obres, que globalment no es poden considerar parcialment acabades fins al segle XVI. D'aquest edifici ve l'expressió "sembla l'obra de la Seu":
- S'inicia la seva construcció l'any 1322 contractant l'arquitecte Berenguer de Montagut, mestre major de Santa Maria del Mar a Barcelona i del Carme i el Pont Nou a Manresa, entre d'altres.
- El 1328 es posa la primera pedra, començant a treballar per la part de l'absis amb les set capelles radials i els dos portals.
- Una segona fase constructiva (entre 1353 i 1425) va alçar els tres trams de nau amb les seves capelles laterals i en els darrers anys les obres van ser dirigides pel mestre Arnau de Vallers amb un llarg període d'inactivitat en la fase més crítica del segle XV.
- Les obres es reprengueren el 1480. El mestre Martí d'Ibar va construir els dos trams que faltaven i el definitiu mur de ponent, amb la gran rosassa.
- La cripta, construïda el 1578 i ampliada recentment, conté les relíquies dels Cossos Sants dels patrons de la Ciutat, Sant Maurici, Sant Fruitós i Santa Agnès i és decorada amb escultures d'alabastre, obra de Jaume Padró i Cots (1781). En el moment de la reinstal·lació del retaule (1981), s'hi va descobrir un pou, que tal com passa a Chartres, és tan fondo com alt és l'edifici.
- El campanar, de secció quadrangular, data del 1592.
- La capella del Santíssim, d'estil renaixent, fou inaugurada el 1657.
- El claustre actual és obra barroca, de primers del segle XVIII.
- La façana principal porticada i baptisteri són dels anys 1915-1934, realitzats segons projecte d'Alexandre Soler i March, interpretant una idea d'Antoni Gaudí.
La nau principal, de planta de saló, és dividida internament per divuit pilastres octogonals, coronades amb capitells ornamentals de tema vegetal, i amb grans vidrieres policromes, és un cas notable de síntesi d'estructures pròpies dels temples d'una i de tres naus en un mateix edifici. En destaca la gran amplada interior entre columnes, el gran campanar quadrat de més de 50 metres d'alçada, els contraforts que donen solidesa a tot l'edifici i que permeten una doble fila de grans finestrals. Com a curiositat, un dels contraforts, a la part de l'absis, pren la forma de torre hexagonal i és conegut com el cargol de Sant Pere.
Les seves dimensions són 68 metres de llargada i 33 d'amplada totals, 18 a la nau central que està flanquejada per dues naus més estretes (7,5). L'alçada és de 30 metres. L'estructura de l'edifici és d'una única i ampla nau, sense transsepte, amb un absis poligonal a la banda llevantina i amb una girola a l'entorn del presbiteri. Al costat de la gran nau princpal hi ha, a banda i banda, unes capelles laterals, de gran alçada i comunicades amb unes arcades. Es pot considerar una de les naus més amples i atrevides del gòtic, un estil auster i horitzontal, i amb pocs elements ornamentals que cerquin la verticalitat.
Utilitzant convencions i mesures medievals, s'ha fet una important descoberta, al interpretar una argúcia arquitectònica que ha arribat inèdita als nostres dies i que ha passat desapercebuda gairebé durant set-cents anys a arquitectes i historiadors i ha donat al mateix temps a en Berenguer de Montagut –autor de la Seu i del Mar– una nova dimensió humana que engrandeix encara més la seva figura.
L'estudi ha observat que no es podia encaixar d'una manera formal l'àbsida amb la nau tal com ho feien els constructors gòtics, se sap que es varen aprofitar els murs laterals de l'antiga església romànica i que l'amplada de la nova nau lateral gòtica que s'havia projectat, era diferent a la romànica. El treball demostra que la manera d'interpretar i dibuixar aquesta capçalera com s'ha fet fins ara, no és prou correcte. En Berenguer després d'una primera actuació a l'actual capella de la Mare de Déu de Montserrat, va erigir finalment un mur en diagonal que uneix les capelles del Sant Crist, la porta de Santa Maria i la capella del Pilar. En arribar a aquesta darrera capella, el mur romànic no la tancava completament i va allargar-lo fins al contrafort; el mur esbiaixat que venia del Sant Crist el va convertir en l'arc former (l'arc que aguanta la volta per damunt el finestral gòtic), el pilar que hom pot veure adossat a un xamfrà de la capella, té la funció de muntant d'aquest arc. Va voler que el mur ultrapasses el contrafort per tal que cada element arquitectònic (contrafort i muntant) tingues cura de les seves pròpies sol·licituds tècniques. Aquest tros de mur que sobresurt (mal anomenat pilar), juntament amb el mur i finestral romànic, varen fer creure que es tractava del marc absidal de l'església romànica i tothom ha donat per valida aquesta teoria i s'ha explicat i dibuixat una planta romànica basada en un muntant gòtic.

Caught at rush hour on Merton High Street in 1981 this Oxford registered AEC Mercury flatbed and what looks like a 1981 Coventry registered Leyland Constructor [?] following up behind.
I had considerable difficulty scanning this print. It has a large amount of reflected light that I have toned down with the scanner tools. I usually upload exactly what is on the negative with no tweaks. [Not a good print!]
I drove by this toddler and his dad while they were watching the construction going on in my neighborhood. I did the fastest U-turn, grabbed my camera from the back seat, and got this shot of this youngster sitting on his miniature backhoe.
Wouldn't you just love to know what this young boy is thinking?

Launched in February 2008 from the Ulstein Verft shipyards in Norway, the Island Constructor is the latest Ulstein X-Bow ship to join the fleet of Island Offshore Management AS. The ULSTEIN SX121-class ship was designed by Ulstein Design AS and constructed by Ulstein Verft.
The ship will be used in the oil industry for light well intervention operations.
The Island Constructor is the fourth Ulstein X-Bow vessel to be completed and the first in the Ulstein S-series (specialised vessels). The first ship was launched in 2006.
The vessel will be fitted with a large tower in order to carry out state-of-the-art well intervention offshore.
Ship construction began in 2006 and required Nkr600m. Ulstein Design will deliver 20 Ulstein X-Bow vessel designs to seven ship owners between 2008 and 2010. Four Ulstein ships are currently being constructed in China.
TECHNICAL
The vessel is 120.2m long, with a PP length between 112.3. It has a moulded breadth of 25.0m and a design draught of 7.0m. The depth to main deck is 10.0m. The maximum draught is 7.9m and the ship will be able to make a speed of 15kt. The vessel has a dead weight of 8,200t, a deck load of 5,600t and a cargo deck area of 1,400m².
The main generator can produce 13,820ekW. There are two main generator engines, each of 4,145 ekW at 900rpm, two main generator engines, each of 2,765 ekW at 900 rpm, two main azimuth propellers (pulling type, controllable pitch, frequency controlled) at 3,500kW, and two bow tunnel thrusters of controllable pitch, frequency controlled, with a power of 1,800kW.
There is also one swing-up compass thruster aft, controllable pitch and frequency controlled with a power of 1,800kW and one swing-up compass thruster fore, controllable pitch and frequency controlled with a power of 1,500kW.
The ship has a revolutionary bow shape designed to lower the impact on the environment and make the vessel safer in extreme weather conditions. The bow shape also means that the vessel can maintain speed while also saving fuel.
Offshore vessels with the Ulstein X-Bow system are designed to be able to maintain their speed, even in stormy weather. The company says vessels with the X-Bow design are 4%–7% more fuel-efficient than vessels with
conventional bows, depending on how they are operated. The inverted bow means vessels with this feature have exceptionally soft entry into oncoming waves.
WELL INTERVENTION SYSTEM
In August 2007, FMC Technologies signed a $25m contract to supply a Riserless Light Well Intervention (RLWI) system tower for installation on the Island Constructor. The system is intended for use by BP on its subsea wells in the North Sea over a three-year contract.
The Island Constructor will be able to carry out many types of operation, with ample space for a large deck area, a moonpool, an active 150t heave-compensated offshore crane, ROV hangar, diesel electric power plant and a helicopter deck. The vessel will be classified as an inspection, maintenance and repair/offshore construction vessel (IMR/OCV), and will be fitted for 90 people.
Seen at Truckfest in May '86 (that's if 'C' reg is 1985/86?), I would guess that this Constuctor was the most powerful available then?

Fahey's Concrete Constructor Mixer, C480 TUT, was nearing the end of its long working life, when captured here in 2001 climbing away from its Okehampton base. With the addition of a rather ugly bumper, remarkably the remains of the lorry are still in their quarry in 2012, and is even on a SORN, although it will never see the road again, apart from being sent away in pieces to the scrapman.

It might say '80-300' on the front grille, but it's a Constructor!
I'm not sure what specialist purpose this tanker is used for, but it looks a great lorry.
Malvern based J Prosser and Son have been in operation since 1922. Luckily they have many pictures of their past vehicles (and there are a fair few on Flickr too) - today I was able to copy a few of their prints.
Any quality issues are entirely down to this photographer and not the original one!
Many thanks to Gary and Chris Prosser.
