Holes are drilled through the outside and inside walls so workers can inject grout between the two walls to hold them together. These dowel rods are inserted in the holes to keep the injected grout from shooting out the other end.

This is the view from the scaffolding under the plastic near the top of Cooper Hall. The orange paint on the beams reminds anyone near 6 feet (1.83 meters) tall to duck!

This intricate system of cables, pulleys and beams assists in holding the north end of the building in place.

This concrete-walled hole will one day become Cooper's elevator shaft.

Looking up at the new second floor from the north end of the basement, one can see the bottom of the third floor (at the top of the picture).
