Some Updates.
We are pouring the core to level 5 as i type.
The 999 on a barge plan is still in effect, As well as the 100 ton 'dukes of hazzard' style crawler offloading. Last saturday they moved a backhoe from the north alley on to a barge then onto the river bank. If I explain this process in detail someone will surely be fined.
The position of the north tower crane is becoming a serious problem. It appears the counterweights will hit the core wall when swung directly north.
Meaning the core cannot be poured any taller than the lowest point of the weights until the crane is jumped. This will cause a serious stall in the project, we are pushing hard to get this thing moved before its too late.
Excavation and retention completion continues to be pushed back, mostly due to weather (dumps dont take loads on rainy days)
