Plaatsing van de eerste verticale spanten van de nieuwe sporthal bij De Heister, OBC Bemmel. De mobiele kraan werkt op volle kracht – zelfs de achterwielen komen los van de grond. Een spannend moment in de voortgang van dit mooie bouwproject.

🇬🇧 Placement of the first vertical beams for the new sports hall at De Heister, OBC Bemmel. The mobile crane operates at full capacity — its rear wheels lifting off the ground. A powerful moment in the progress of this exciting construction project.

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 Kelpies near Falkirk
100 feet in height and weighing 600 tonne
They changed color after about 10 minutes.
The Angel of the North is a contemporary sculpture, designed by Antony Gormley, located in Gateshead, Tyne and Wear, England.
Completed in 1998, it is a steel sculpture of an angel, 20 metres (66 ft) tall, with wings measuring 54 metres (177 ft) across. The wings do not stand straight sideways, but are angled 3.5 degrees forward; Gormley did this to create "a sense of embrace". The angel like much of Gormley's other work is based on a cast of his body.
It stands on the hill of Birtley, at Low Eighton in Lamesley, overlooking the A1 and A167 roads into Tyneside, and the East Coast Main Line rail route, south of the site of Team Colliery.
Work began on the project in 1994, and cost £800,000. Most of the project funding was provided by the National Lottery. The Angel was installed on 15 February 1998.
Due to its exposed location, the sculpture was built to withstand winds of over 100 mph (160 km/h). Thus, foundations containing 600 tonnes (590 long tons; 660 short tons) of concrete anchor the sculpture to rock 70 feet (21 m) below. The sculpture was built at Hartlepool Steel Fabrications Ltd using COR-TEN weather-resistant steel. It was made in three parts—with the body weighing 100 tonnes (98 long tons; 110 short tons) and two wings weighing 50 tonnes (49 long tons; 55 short tons) each—then brought to its site by road. The components were transported in convoy—the body on a 48-wheel trailer—from their construction site in Hartlepool, up the A19 road to the installation site 28 miles (45 km) away; the nighttime journey took five hours and attracted large crowds.
The Angel aroused some controversy in British newspapers, at first, including a "Gateshead stop the statue" campaign, while local councillor Martin Callanan was especially strong in his opposition. However, it has since been considered to be a landmark for North East England and has been listed by one organisation as an "Icon of England". It has often been used in film and television to represent Tyneside, as are other local landmarks such as the Tyne Bridge and the Gateshead Millennium Bridge.
The sculpture is also humorously known by some local people as the "Gateshead Flasher", because of its location and appearance
When commissioned in 1943, it was the 3rd longest cantilever bridge in the world, behind Pont de Québec (549 m) and Forth Bridge (521 m). It has since been surpassed by three more bridges, making it currently the sixth longest cantilever bridge in the world. To be precise, it is a Suspension type Balanced Cantilever[5] bridge, with a central span 1500 ft between centers of main towers and a suspended span of 564 ft. The main towers are 280 ft high above the monoliths and 76 ft apart at the top.
The bridge serves as the gateway to Kolkata, connecting it to the Howrah Station, which is one of the four intercity train stations serving Howrah and Kolkata. As such, it carries the near entirety of the traffic to and from the station, taking its average daily traffic close to nearly 1.5 million pedestrians and 1 million vehicles.
The company has won Tekla India BIM 2015 award under Infrastructure projects category for its depot cum workshop model of Lucknow Metro project. The Lucknow Metro project model demonstrates the complexity of structure as fabricated from built-up section and also indicates intricate use of BIM. The most attractive feature of the project is that it is a large 72 meter span structure with curved roof which made the structure stood out of the rest.

Authentic piece of structural steel from the World Trade Center Ground Zero at the Liberty Garden in Dodge City, Kansas.
Liberty Garden in Wright Park in Dodge City, Kansas. The garden was constructed after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. It is a project of Keep America Beautiful and the Dodge City CREW (Community Recycling Environmental Waste) program. The garden contains steel from the World Trade Center, piece of limestone from the Pentagon, and a piece of Pennsylvania sandstone. The Liberty Garden's dedication occurred on September 11, 2002.
Structural steel for the Integrated Sciences Complex arrived on Wednesday, December 21, and the steelworkers have been busy erecting two stories of columns and beams on the north wing. The university community will see the ISC take shape as steel continues to go up and metal decks, concrete slabs and fireproofing are installed through the spring.
