M.R.O Movie

Greetings all.
Took this today as the top beams were completed.
About 3 megs in size but interesting to see as it helps give
an idea of overall progress.

The structure has just been tack welded in the centre.
Next week the guys transport it on a Semi in two halves and re erect on the slab. Final welds then get done on site once its been squared up.
