I say after they finish in July/August, I say we tell them to pack up and relocate to the Tigue and tell them to do whatever they can. They'll have the whole stadium renovated and upgraded by the end of September at the rate they're moving on the dorms. _

I second that emotion!

Once they finish framing and close in, progress won't be quite as apparent. There will be lots of rough in and then finish work to be done inside. They will still be busting butt I'm sure.

Juneau Construction is a large corporation from the Atlanta area and they just flat out get it done. Lemoine is their local guy in a joint venture. The owner of Juneau Construction is from Cottonport and is an LSU grad.

I'm thinking they are using this job as an example to create an impact in Louisiana.

So I was taking some pictures of the construction/campus yesterday and came across this:

If you can't tell, the Louisiana flag and the US flag were flying side by side, on the same mounts. Somebody should know better than to do that.

Installing Auger Cast pile for Parking Garage. Obviously the test performed on Wednesday was successful.

Taft Street Dorm framing and stairwell

CMU stairwell - Structure to be used as area of refuge and shear walls

Pull gap for post tensioning cables. The gap will be filled in later after the cables are tensioned

Preparation for final concrete placement on Taft Street dorm

Installing post tensioning cables. They may place concrete tomorrow or Monday. They placed the concrete in the middle section on Wednesday.

If you travel on I-10 near the Scott exit look at the north west corner and you will see a large pile of stone at the "Recycled Rock" yard. This is where the concrete debris is being taken to be crushed. The pile will get bigger over the next few weeks.
