Well, I am a Civil Engineering Student and I have learned a bit about Reinforced Cement Concrete. Still a lot to be learned. But with my limited knowledge, I know how much dangerous it is to cast concrete like this...
The sad thing is, if something bad really happens, all the blames will be the engineers burden.

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.

Netherlands, Zuid Holland, Rotterdam, Maasvlakte 2, Construction workers
[Yes this is a kind off-beat title, but I couldn't resist using the title of a favourite John Irving novel here ;-)]
Economic powerhouse Rotterdam needs extra space for the expansion of its harbour activities. After some debate this led to the decision to start the work on Maasvlakte 2 , which's all about creating new land.
This one is captured at the border of Maasvlake 1 and 2 - at the cooling water outlet of the coal fired E-on power station.nearby A pipeline is being installed - a whole lotta of sand/water needs to be moved - and the workers were having a close look at the things going on at the outlet.

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.

Have Singaporeans forgotten that these foreign workers are the ones who take on jobs that we do not fill? Have we forgotten that foreign workers are humans too? Comments such as “they stare at us” and “give them an isolated area” all point towards an idea of social exclusion and marginalisation. However, this sense of xenophobia is acute because it does not apply to all foreigners in Singapore, but particularly to blue-collar workers. These workers are often viewed as inferior, a public nuisance or threat.
This leaves us to re-think the notion that Singapore is indeed a multi-cultural society.
