Building the Ravenel Bridge


After all the photos I took, I've tried to arrange them in some order based on various topics I found interesting.

And a reminder from T.S. Eliot (East Coker from the Four Quartets)

Old men ought to be explorers
Here and there does not matter
We must be still and still moving
Into another intensity
For a further union, a deeper communion

Slowly slowly lifting the floor girder from the barge

And slowly slowly dropping the floor girder into place. Note the traffic cop under the right of the beam directing the crane operator
