My Construction Photos > Construction materials/ insulation: Workers carry rolls of fiber glass insulation up spiral stairs and into residence being constructed. Note temporary supports/ shores are adjustable columns manufactured for more simple concrete placement. St Leger, France September 2006
My Construction Photos > Roof construction, materials: Construction of ceramic tile roof (left side of photo) consists of (1) rolling out asphalt impregnated roofing felt to cover sloped plywood roof sheathing that spans roof trusses, (2) placing ~1x2 inch wood strips vertically on roof, (3) nailing ~1x2 inch wood nailing strips horizontally across vertical strips, and (4) nailing the top of hard fired ceramic roof tile to the nailing strips, with bottom of rile overlapping top of tile below it. Roof on left is older tile roof, constructed the same way with the right edge cut back to join it to new buiding being constructed beside it. St. Leger, France September 2006

At top of right wall are outriggers with single platform plank and single guardrail, which leaves wide spaces through which a worker can easily fall. St. Leger, France September 2006

My Construction Photos > Landscape construction, earthmoving: Summer workers repair approach to asphalt power cart path by laying soil, planting grass seed, and tamping soil to consolidate it. Radrick Farms Golf Course, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, May 2006.
My Construction Photos > Masonry/concrete construction: On the job mixers by EZ Grout: Near left are two Mud Hog machines which can mix mortar, concrete, and grout, primarily for masonry construction. They are gasoline or electrically driven. At right rear is Grout Hog machine to mix grout primarily for use in masonry construction. Mortar is mixture of cement, sand, and water stiff enough to build masonry walls. Grout is similar but flows easily to fill cavities, particularly in and between masonry units, such as brick and concrete block. Concrete is mixture of portland cement, sand, gravel, and water. World of Concrete, Las Vegas, January 2006.
