  1. I also still kind of confused. I know what a shear wall is and I can see the elevator shaft and it is definitely up to at least floor 7. Usually the concrete elevator and stair wells act as a shear force for a steel building. So is this shear wall that has been mentioned a separate entity from the elevator shaft already under construction or is it one and the same.

    The shear walls are the elevators and they are up to 9. I understand that they will have to wait until the tower crane gets jumped to be able to continue the rest of the way and they have to wait until more steel is set to be able to tie the tower crane into the building so they can jump it.

  2. I have a friend that works there. I always pictured a bunker. Didn't realize she worked in such a cool building. Impressive!

    The Spectrum IT that is pictured is next to the bunker. The bunker has the main computer in it and was designed to with stand hurricane force winds, trucks smashing into the building and that type pf stuff. For a concrete bunker it is pretty impressive.
