| At the top of the picture you can see the i-beam. It has wooden planks fitted and bolted into the sides so that the roof rafters can be attached. The beam weighs over 800 lbs and had to slowly be jacked into place using the "cribs" you see supporting each end of the beam. They would jack the beam up about 8 inches, insert another layer of the crib and then repeat until the beam was in place. |
