Erected steel truss bays

Encouraged by favorable late-season weather, the contractor made the decision to begin erecting the fourth bay of the truss. As of end of day on Sunday, the first four members of the fourth bay had been erected and were dramatically cantilevering beyond the eastern edge of the launch platform as shown in the photo above. This puts them slightly ahead of their planned schedule for this year.

The contractor’s current plan is to complete the remaining work on the fourth bay this week and then begin their winter shutdown and demobilization process.
