Exciting progress update for our SpawGlass-North Texas/UTD team – we’re going vertical! We have successfully erected the tower cranes that will remain in place for the next sixteen months of construction. The foundations for the cranes’ bases were prepared with reinforced concrete before the masts were assembled section by section. Mobile cranes were used to position the jibs, and counterweights were added to ensure proper balance. Every step of the process was conducted with a focus on safety and attention to detail, allowing the cranes to reach their full operational height. Now standing tall, the tower cranes proudly display the SpawGlass name and logo. 

 

As the end of the summer season marches on, we have finished building the retention system for the building’s service tunnel, completed construction of the basement piers and put the cranes to use to pour concrete for the basement walls. 

 

 

Stay tuned and follow along as we continue to share our progress!
