West entrance looking to the east, the stage is at the back of the photo. This area will be the auditorium, middle school commons, multi purpose room, and video production area.
Decking and structural steel filling in the old south stairwell. This decking will be covered with concrete, this will make the halls from the new area into the class room part of the building.
The new elevator shaft is almost complete. The shaft is being constructed with concrete blocks. The work is completed in lifts so that the mortar between the lower blocks has time to dry.
A telescopic forklift is used to deliver pallets of concrete blocks to the scaffolding for the elevator shaft. This allows heavy loads to be raised from ground level to platforms several feet in the air. In this case approximately 30 feet in the air.
These forms are for the basement walls of the new addition. The forms create a sandwich with the metal rebar in the middle. The rebar adds structural strength to the walls. After the second face is installed concrete will be poured into the forms.
