Pier, foundation construction, concrete construction: Caterpillar 9286 wheeled tractor with forklift lifts pier mucking/bailing bucket/bit from lying on ground to vertical, so the end of the kelly bar just above and to its right can be inserted into its yoke. Directly behind the mucking bucket is the temporary casing for the drilled pier into which the mucking bucket will be inserted to clean the bottom of the hole and leave undisturbed soil on which the pier concrete will be placed. Beyond and to the right of the mucking bucket is a soil auger bit that drilled the pier. Huron Parkway South of Huron River, Ann Arbor, MI, 2005
