On April 13, 2012 crews work to "splice" - or join - two pieces of structural steel together.

Slowly but surely these old wooden groynes are being smashed to pieces by the sea.

Rigging is attached to the bottom of the center lifting bracket, too. This allows the girder to be carefully controlled, while slowly changing it to vertical.

A nice view of one of the support structures of the Jacques Cartier Bridge

RAF MILDENHALL, England -- Firefighters from the 100th Civil Engineer Squadron Fire Department prepare an exercise scenario on the second floor of the structural trainer here Feb. 20, 2013. The firefighters train regularly on structural, aircraft and compartmental fires to ensure a quick and effective response in real-world situations.

All of the girders and knuckles are fabricated for a specific location on the bridge and when brought on site they are placed in their specific location because nobody wants to move them twice.

Now the girder can be held fully vertical, supported by the two remaining brackets and it is ready to be moved into the vertical storage location.

Three structural engineers from Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom, deployed through the EU Civil Protection Mechanism, helped to assess buildings damaged during the earthquake in Mexico (September 2017). The team integrated the UN Disaster Assessment and Coordination Team.

Once the clamp is set onto the beam, it is carefully measured to be sure it is exactly centered on the beam, then locked into place.

Dortechs Structural Silicone Glazed Curtain Wall systems can be used to create almost perfectly flush-fitted glass facades. The appearance of structural glazing is achieved by using profiles that are only visible on the room side. From the outside, only the glazing and the slender shadow joints are visible. The gap between each piece of glass is approximately 25mm (this can vary) in comparison to the 50 – 60mm site line prevalent with traditional, visible grid curtain wall systems.There are two main types of SSG system Dortech offers;

The first is based upon specialist double glazed units which are manufactured to include an SSG spacer bar which incorporates a ‘U’ channel. Typically the spacer bar will have a bronze anodised finish. Structural silicone is used to bond each piece of glass to the spacerbar. Once the curtain wall grid has been erected on site, these specialist glass units are delivered to site and locked into the grid using metal toggles which are designed specifically for each respective aluminium suppliers curtain wall system. Finally a compatible silicone is applied over the top of the vertical and horizontal joints to create a flush finish.

The second utilises traditional double glazed units manufactured with structural silicone. Aluminium carrier frames are then bonded around the perimeter of each piece of glass with structural silicone. On site, the perimeter frame is locked into the curtain wall grid and then silicone is applied over the gap between each piece of glass.

Please note, the SSG Curtain wall sysems cannot accomodate significant structural movements.

Dortech has carried out a number of projects utilising the following SSG Curtain wall systems:

The bracket is then carefully loosened, to prepare for removal.

The ironworker signals, usually via radio, directing the crane operator where to move the girder so that it lines up with the supports.

Crews work to set crossframes on May 11, 2012 - all smiles!

Crews continue preparing for structural steel erection on April 12, 2012.

Here an ironworker uses an industrial-sized cotter pin to secure the turnbuckle to the lifting bracket.

"The design of the pavillon consists of 151 custom laminated lightweight beech plywood segments. In order to combine these ultra-thin plywood strips into a structurally stable configuration, newly developed robotic sewing techniques for prefabrication and manual lacing on site are applied."
