Day 193 - Windy weekend

Day 193: 59 days to building completion, 90 days to Occupancy Permit.

This is the sight that greeted the crew on Monday morning. We had very high winds over the weekend, and the trusses over the garage were blown over. A few truss members were broken as a result.

This happened because the trusses were just tacked into place when the crane was here (in order to make best use of the crane time - which is about $2,000 per day). I guess there wasn't quite enough bracing to hold it all up.
