A worker guides a wooden formwork into place at the Great Northern Way-Emily Carr site. Concrete will be poured into this frame to help build the section of SkyTrain that transitions from elevated guideway to the new underground station.
Possibly one of a kind, this sandbag pillbox is similar to a circular Type 25, but has been made with concrete-filled hessian sacks that would have laid dry, and as the concrete was wetted it would have set.
This variant is very similar to Beehive type pillboxes found around Northumberland but appears to be smaller.

Around 250 Cubic Yards of concrete had to be poured for this large mat foundation, and to get ahead of the heat, night work was used, along with the addition of ice to the concrete mix. Big day!

Regional Labor Court, by architect Evandro Pinto Silva, displaying exposed concrete arches showing the texture of the formwork.
The project aims to restore access to parts of the surviving walls and open up the original gatehouse. This includes excavations being carried out in the grounds of the castle as part of work to make the castle more attractive to the public. This view of the 12C gatehouse shows new concrete work to open up the gatehouse as an entrance to the castle. The gatehouse will have floors and a roof built so it can be used for events. The overall cost of the archaeological excavation work and renovations will cost about £6 million and are expected to be complete late in 2026.

This stairwell is of part of the riverside approach to the National Theatre.
The Royal National Theatre (generally known as the National Theatre) in London is one of the United Kingdom's three most prominent publicly-funded performing arts venues, alongside the Royal Shakespeare Company and the Royal Opera House. Internationally, it is known as the National Theatre of Great Britain.
From its foundation in 1963 until 1976, the company was based at the Old Vic theatre in Waterloo. The current building was designed by architects Sir Denys Lasdun and Peter Softley and structural engineers Flint & Neill and contains three stages, which opened individually between 1976 and 1977. It overlooks the River Thames in the South Bank area of central London.
The style of the building was described by Mark Girouard as "an aesthetic of broken forms" at the time of opening; however, architectural opinion was split. Even enthusiastic advocates of the Modern Movement such as Sir Nikolaus Pevsner have found the Béton brut concrete both inside and out overbearing. Most notoriously, Prince Charles described the building in 1988 as "a clever way of building a nuclear power station in the middle of London without anyone objecting". Sir John Betjeman, however, a man not noted for his enthusiasm for brutalist architecture, was effusive in his praise and wrote to Lasdun stating that he "gasped with delight at the cube of your theatre in the pale blue sky and a glimpse of St. Paul's to the south of it. It is a lovely work and so good from so many angles...it has that inevitable and finished look that great work does."
Despite the controversy, the theatre has been a Grade II* listed building since 1994. Although the theatre is often cited as an archetype of Brutalist architecture in England, since Lasdun's death the building has been re-evaluated as having closer links to the work of Le Corbusier, rather than contemporary monumental 1960s buildings such as those of Paul Rudolph. The carefully-refined balance between horizontal and vertical elements in Lasdun's building has been contrasted favourably with the lumpiness of neighbouring buildings such as the Hayward Gallery and Queen Elizabeth Hall.
It is now in the unusual situation of having appeared simultaneously in the Top 10 "most popular" and "most hated" London buildings in opinion surveys. A recent lighting scheme illuminating the exterior of the building, in particular the fly towers, has proved very popular, and is one of several positive artistic responses to the building.
Béton brut is architectural concrete left unfinished or roughly-finished after casting and left exposed visually. The imprint of the wood or plywood formwork used for forming is usually present on the final surface.
The use of béton brut was pioneered by Auguste Perret and other modern architects. It flourished as a part of the brutalist architecture of the 1960s and 70s. - details from Wikipedia.
Simmons Hall is home to 350 undergraduates, visiting scholars and graduate assistants at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). The exterior structure is a grid of prefab concrete units that create a total of 5,500 square windows which have lead to the building's nickname, "The Sponge." Porosity, a keen interest of architect Steven Holl is found almost everywhere in this building.
Most rooms are 3x3 square windows wide and an innovative series of furniture in each room allows students to configure and stack bookcases, beds, desks and dressers in any way they please. The modular furniture fits perfectly within the rooms' dimensions and brings out the architect in each of the residents.
Some of the most astonishing spaces are the student lounges and study rooms where curvaceous concrete walls cut through multiple stories and create truly remarkable gathering spots.
Shoring for the west side over-land portion of the PMLR Bridge.
Two shots posted. I like how the sunlight penetrates deeper and creates more interesting shadows in the other one, but I prefer the more dramatic lines of the this one. Thoughts?
My last project is finally going UP! Months of digging down, installing piles, finding random historical tidbits from the old railroad days, and now.. we go vertical!

Pier cap formwork being lifted on columns at bridge foundation S4 in Surrey.
The Pattullo Bridge replacement will be located just upstream and northeast of the existing bridge. The new bridge will be four lanes wide with walking and cycling lanes, separated from traffic, on both sides. Construction is ongoing and the new bridge is scheduled to open to traffic in 2024.
