These images are from a construction site in Gordon Ave, Geelong next to Hardings.
The first image shows the pre-fab concrete panels been held up by the supports that will be taken out when the roof goes on, unifying the structure to a rigid one. We can also see the safety capping on numerous steel rods. The rods I presume are connected into the footing and are either setting out the site or will be used later on to connect the walls to the footing system.
The second image shows us numerous connection joints with the steel members, particullarly the pinned connection between the collumn and two beams in the centre of the image. and in the background we are able to see the purlins, which will be supporting the roof cladding, and also the cross bracing, which is used to help keep the structure stable to resist wind loads.
