Iron Workers from Local 7 are on the job at the Brigham and Women's construction site. It was pretty cold but I am sure that these guys have worked through a lot worse. Some of the pictures have good views of the workers' safety equipment.

This worker caught my eye, so I shot this as I was crossing the street.
Just glad my arse did not get swiped by a bus or cab while I took several to get the comp of the worker and the cross :)

While some of these construction workers are apparently done for the day, others continue to work in the brutal heat of a Phoenix summer... 108° that day, near the record-high temperature for the date.

Don't you love waking up to the sound of heavy equipment right outside of your bedroom window at 6:15 on a Monday morning? Yeah, I love that.

Dawn was just about breaking when I saw him through the haze of cement dust.
In a sea of construction workers milling around for breakfast, this man was off to an early start, splitting rocks with a hammer and an iron rod by a huge site.
The man seemed entirely misplaced. He had no uniform or hard hat, just a white blazer, dirty jeans and disheveled hair. A migrant worker being roped to do odd jobs perhaps? Or maybe he was behind in his duties and was forced to catch up during breakfast time.
With each incessant thump, his task seemed futile what with his inferior tools against stubborn concrete that refused to break apart. His frustration carried through his tense body and grew with the senseless hammering.
Suddenly, his eyes met mine through the camera lens and burned a fiery red.
“What the hell are you doing?” He growled.
I mumbled a quick apology, sensing that his anger was more visceral than I could handle that morning. There was an inherent rage in him that I felt I had foolishly triggered with my intrusion.
He shifted toward me and I quickened my pace away from him while still staring back.
That was when he spat in my direction, raising his fists as he broke into a stream of verbal abuse. He cursed and kept cursing. Horrible and vulgar words that came out of his mouth were coated in angry spittle.
The reasons for his anger mattered no more. Just that he wanted me to feel his wrath.

The bucket rig is a form of the rotary drill rig. It uses mechanical or hydraulic drive to rotate a Kelly which is attached to the bucket. This type of rig will normally utilize a square friction type or round locking type Kelly with three or four telescoping sections which can extend to 100ft or more. Bucket rigs may be equipped to drill holes from 10 to 60 inches in diameter. Bucket drilling uses a cylindrical bucket with cutting blades or teeth mounted on a hinged bottom to repeatedly cut and lift sediments from the borehole. To drill, the bucket is rotated to allow the bottom of the cutting teeth to fill the bucket. When the bucket is full, it is raised by cable. Flaps at the bottom of the bucket will close to keep the soils (spoils) inside the bucket. The bottom of the bucket, which is hinged, is opened to allow the soils to dump into the spoil pile. The bottom of the bucket is closed, the bucket is reinserted into the hole, and the process is repeated as necessary to achieve the proper borehole depth. For drilling with the bucket rig, groundwater must be at least 8-10ft below existing grade or the drill rig needs to be ramped up to achieve 8-10ft of head, which in some cases may require a surface casing. Water or biodegradable drilling fluids such as Revert, Guar Gum, or other synthetic polymers are added as needed to keep the borehole open during the drilling process. This is in lieu of large mixing/separation pits or tanks typical of other methods of drilling (i.e. reverse rotary).The combination of the drilling fluid and the side cutting teeth producing an oversized borehole along with the fact that the drill cuttings are removed via the drill bucket, produces a well that is not smeared with the annulus of the borehole or drilling fluid, with suspended solids that could “cake” or produce lower yielding water wells. This makes the bucket drilling method a viable option in a variety of soil conditions. Over the years it has been a proven method for installing dewatering systems in the stratified soils found in the Houston region as well as other soil conditions found throughout the country.
