The structure must be hung by the end of tomorrow. Estates Department must be satisfied by the manner by which it is hung. This can be slow.
Andy Loke and Bob Painter from the DMU workshops are consulted. A system is devised by which the structure can be hung from steel trusses above the suspended ceiling. Dexion steel railing is used to span diagonally between the trusses and provide a stiff anchorage for vertical threaded rods. These rods are secured with double steel angle brackets and double nuts to prevent slippage. Having two rods combats the structures natural inclination to turn under the force of gravity. The structure is still to be hung in the four sections in which it was designed.
Today was a day for thinking. Tomorrow will be a day for action.
