Building Tresses in the Garage

The boys are working late.  They are making tresses.  One is cutting material, one is welding, and the other is grinding.

Working on a Damaged Church

The Des Champs Church suffered damages from the 2010 earthquake and also wind damage.  We were asked to repair the church for the New York Pilgrims.

New metal tresses were constructed and were welded to steel rods to anchor the roof to the foundation

A view from the inside

All cracks were patches and the building was tied together with a continual concrete reinforced bond beam.  The gable ends were then rebuilt and the building plastered.
