In addition to the framed floor, sheets of plywood will be put down on top to firm up the floor and distribute weight across the entire structure.
Coolest scaffolding ever. And someone pointed out to me a related article from 2002: query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9403E6D8133BF934A...

Comment is of personal opinion in general.
I wonder why the Courts don't provide adequate scaffolding instructions to the inmates. Very few being released have proper support systems in place therefore it seems they are being set up to fail. Why not teach them how to stand on their own and show them where to go when they need true support. Yes, it's true, there are all kinds of re-hab places and half-way housing if you are fortunate enough to get through the waiting list in your time of need. But reality is, these places only provide a roof over their head and only for a limited time period. Not instructions on how to survive in this world without having to resort back to the old way of thinking.
The learners are challenged to (a) know how to learn, (b) access changing information, (c) apply what is learned, and (d) address complex real-world problems in order to be successful. The ultimate goal would be for them to become independent lifetime learners, so that they can continue to learn on their own and/or with limited support.
It's a sensitive subject for me personally, as I have seen this happen one time too many. The courts puts a man on the street and tells him he has to attend meetings, pay fees, pay restitution, serve community services, etc. and yet as they leave the building, they have no roof over their head, no transportation, no job and no personal support. How do they expect them to succeed? Yes, they did this to themselves, however, does this mean they have to pay forever? I'm not sure I will ever understand this!
