Workers remove chains used to secure a massive girder to the bed of a tractor trailor truck. Once the chains are off, crews will attach the concrete beam to cables on two huge cranes.
The busiest construction weekend yet saw crews tackle installation of girders and concrete deck panels at four overpasses along the State Route 520 corridor from Feb. 24-27, 2012. All lanes of the highway were closed so crews could move more than 4 million pounds of massive concrete girders for new lidded overpasses above the highway at Bellevue Way Northeast and 84th Avenue Northeast. Concrete deck panels were installed at Evergreen Point Road and 92nd Avenue Northeast during a chilly weekend that saw heavy rain, hailstorms and plummeting temperatures.

No raw avaiable, am getting used to what happens with this when you change settings on the fly and may then change form RAW+ to jpg only. The K-3 handles it differently.
