Agriboard Install Complete

The last Agriboard panels went up today.  Fitting these panels into the trapezoidal tower frame was the trickiest part of the Agriboard installation.  Since all the panels are installed in "keyways," the panels couldn't go in as a single panel and instead were put in as a group of three per face (see below).  The next step will be two-fold:  Installation of the lookout and the access stair.

Installation of the Steel

Kauth Brothers (Steel Fabricators) and Shook and Waller (Carpenters) are installing the tower.  The main tower supports are steel.  The floor systems are predominantly wood.  The exterior stairway that will eventually wrap around the outside of the tower will be steel again for waterproofing reasons.  This combination of building systems requires the two subs work closely together.
