Construction Photos 5-12-05

First the bad news:

1.The Health and Safety mandated’haunching’ on the wall ride is now facing INWARDS, and isincorporated lower than planned. See photo. This was intended to stop”Crazy People” (???) walking along the top of the wall, and nowmakes the wall ride even weirder than the original plan. It now stopsgrinds and blunts etc. This angled-bit will be stopped and leveled outbelow it’s current position. Maybe we can do some carefull modificationin the future, in right spots for the coolest line: blunts etc. A weelip of crete put back on.

2. The coping in the bowl is not exactly straight, on theriver-side.It isn’t huge, but it’s definitely visible. I am a bitworried about it. Will check it again tomorrow to see what can be done.

No photo, camera ran out of battery…sorry.

The park will definitely have it’s flaws beyond any I’ve designed intoit 🙂 but hopefully they won’t affect much. And we can sort SOME ofthem later.

Oh well…

Itwill continue around on the top of this. Thus leaving us with less thanthe specified 3m total. The haunching should have been ON TOP of the3m…damn. This will affect it lower down too…

The good news:


Hello!

The block itself ain’t to pretty to look at, but the view will sho’nuff be ok.

Wally-able top end of OTHER block, yet to be poured obviously…

>Check the angle of the shuttering.

More good news… Duracrete cracks on.

Surf’s up dude.

You can see the curve at the bottom a bit better here.

And here.

And here. The rough bit is mainly dust left over from cutting the slab to make a clean join.

The other side of the new beast.
