The Kelpies near Falkirk
100 feet in height and weighing 600 tonne
An amazing sight and worth a visit.
Groundbreaking ceremonies for the stadium took place on August 16, 2006, the 58th anniversary of Babe Ruth's death, with Steinbrenner, Bloomberg and then-Governor of New York George Pataki among the notables donning Yankees hard hats and wielding ceremonial shovels to mark the occasion. The Yankees continued to play in the previous Yankee Stadium during the 2007 and 2008 seasons while their new home stadium was built across the street.
We provided PZC Sheet Pile for the construction of the stadium.

Michigan Street in downtown Grand Rapids is nicknamed the "medical mile" for all the hospitals and related offices and services concentrated along this corridor. This video clip from a few streets south of Michigan Street (on Lyon St.) shows a front-end loader at work, moving among the rubble piles before returning for fill dirt to lift into a waiting truck.

Piping Technology & Products, Inc. fabricated a Cantilevered Canopy for the entrance of an International State Department building. The Canopy was fabricated using ten 20-foot long girders. These girders were connected by sixty-three structural steel members. Together, they formed the 80-foot width of the Canopy. The wooden sheathing and architectural cladding that is supported by the canopy’s inner steel structure was installed at the construction site.
The fabricated girders and structural members combined weight exceeds 33,000 lb.
Piping Technology & Products also supplied the steel framing that supports the sheathing and cladding, roof drains and piping installed inside the canopy.

The Security Bank Building in Sioux Falls was listed individually in the National Register of Historic Places in 1984, and included within the Sioux Falls Downtown Historic District in 1994. Photograph by SHPO staff 2011.
Constructed for the Northwest Security National Bank of structural steel with brick curtain walls and concrete floors, the exterior is finished with Bedford limestone on the first two floors of the north and east facades while a gray brick with limestone trim is used above the second floor. The west and south facades are finished in a red brick with flush joints.
The building opened officially on January 2, 1917. The local news said at the time that it was "one of the finest and most modern structures in the middle west" and "the first steel skeleton office building in this state." It was designed in 1914 by E. Jackson Casse Company of Chicago. Trouble with steel shipments caused a delay in construction.
On the morning of March 6, 1934, six men armed with machine guns entered the Security National Bank and robbed it of $46,000. Several shots were fired by the bandits during the holdup and policeman, Hale Keith, was critically wounded when he approached the bank to investigate. The robbers abducted four women employees of the bank and a male teller, forcing them to stand on the running board of the large dark green getaway car until they were safely out of town. Although police pursued them and local air craft kept them in sight for some time, the robbers escaped. Eye witnesses identified members of John Dillinger's gang as the robbers although Dillinger himself was apparently not present.
In 1951 it added a two-story, 22 foot addition along the south side of the original building, and in 1957 another 22 foot addition was constructed along the south side of the first.

October 26, 2023 - Columbus Crew SC office space beneath the coal hopper. AIA tour of the Columbus Municipal Light Plant.
"The Columbus Municipal Light Plant, vacant for years until it was restored for office and auction space, is the 2022 winner of Columbus Landmarks' James B. Recchie Design Award.
The plant, located at 577 W. Nationwide Blvd. near Lower.com Field, home of the Columbus Crew, was built in 1903 and operated until the city closed it in 1977.
It took 3.5 years and ultimately $35 million in construction and other costs to renovate. According to Columbus Landmarks, more than 2,000 tons of material had to be removed from the site.
But crews were able to preserve coal hoppers, hopper doors, interior cranes, rail tracks and the tall smokestack, now a landmark itself: yellow with black vertical lettering spelling out COLUMBUS with the Crew logo below.
"What moved everyone was the attention to detail," said Rebecca Kemper, Columbus Landmarks' CEO.
That included adapting an original coal hopper into office space and retaining master switches that once controlled power to Downtown, including City Hall, plus smaller details such as using control wheels as door components, Kemper said.
It's a project where care was taken, Kemper said. "A real understanding that Brad DeHays had a vision for this site," she said.
DeHays is president of Connect Realty, which developed the site. Sandvick Architects of Cleveland designed the project.
In an email, DeHays said his company bought the property in late 2014. He said it is 100% leased and the businesses will employ more than 215. The buildings have a total of 110,000 square feet.
The three-member jury that reviewed the projects noted: “This is an example of a building that could have been lost, but instead it has been reimagined in a way that took creative thinking and attention to detail. The building honors its history through the integration of industrial artifacts throughout, including turning the suspended coal hopper into office space.
"This project demonstrates how even the most derelict industrial building can be brought back to life.” Previous description of the project: www.dispatch.com/story/news/local/2022/10/05/columbus-mun...
