Gardner, P. J.
Counsel for the claimant and for the employer cite Employers Liability Assur. Corp. v. Hollifield, 93 Ga. App. 51, 53 (90 S. E. 2d 681). That case is unlike the case at bar in that the claimant in the instant case continued to do the same type of work after the injury as before. That case has no bearing on the case at bar. Austin Brothers Bridge Co. v. Whitmire, 31 Ga. App. 560 (121 S. E. 345) is not applicable for the reason that the claimant continued to do the same work after the injury as before. The facts in Lumbermen’s Mutual Cas. Co. v. Cook, 69 Ga. App. 131 (25 S. E. 2d 67) are different from the facts in the instant case.
There is competent evidence to support the award of the State Board of Workmen’s Compensation, and this court is without authority to disturb such an award.

Judgment affirmed.

Townsend and Carlisle, JJ., concur.
