Crews prepare to lift the girder from the truck that delivered it from a fabricating plant in Lancaster County. A crane lifts the girder which will be set on the pier and then connected to a girder already set on the adjacent pier. Crews prepare to place a basket on the girder. The basket is used for a work area and for the workers' protection when they are making girder connections. The girder is positioned to make the connection.
Workers bolt the girders together at a splice connection.
This is a close up of the bolting operation.
