Those are called tables - more parts were being delivered Friday. These provide the bottom of the floor when the concrete is poured. Build a dozen or so big forms, enough to cover several floors. Place the first set on the top of the building, put on rebar, electrical, post tension cables, and then pour the floor, once it sets enough the next set of tables can be put on and then the process repeats. At NEMAtode the tables are on rollers to make it easier to pull them out.
