    Steel and Concrete

    This be an apartment building in progress. When finished it will have 6 stories plus a first
    floor garage...it was the construction method that interested me. No wood here.

    The trucks that carry those concrete slabs are rated at 36 tons, they carry up to 8 slabs which
    are used as flooring and walls and are hauled in from Canada to SE Michigan.
    I can only assume that we don't mold them in MI. That looks like one big crane for a small job.

    The thing that is disappointing is the leisurely rate of construction...your looking at 6 months.
