This week proved to be productive for the team because we made significant headway with the support structures of this year's track design. Bryan was finishing up the last bits of the welding for the support structures' leveling system. Meanwhile, Kevin and Angelo worked to seal these components together by mixing up concrete and preparing the molds to fit the manufactured components.
Luckily, we only managed to cement three of the welded components because there was more welding that needed to be done. The hot-rolled steel flat bar needed to have nuts welded onto the holes that were drilled into them. The three support bases that are cemented will be tackled last because the concrete still has not hardened. This adds on to the laundry list of manufacturing the track team will have ahead of us in the following weeks.
