Dang. Some pretty hefty material, that's for sure. Who gets to drill all those holes, and how do they drill them?

Funny you should say that...there are 4- 50 footers that are to heavy for the beam line to handle, the guys name is Luis on the back to back mag drills

Unfortunately nothing classy, they are basically a truss system that will hold up 21 stories of a High Rise Condo over in Miami.
