There was a short article in the paper this morning. Some interesting tidbits:
-of the 4 engineers, there were 2 men and 2 women
-they carried iPads containing all the relevant data from the big renovation done about a decade ago
-they carried digital cameras to document everything, (and I saw them taking each other's pictures.)
-they carried rubber mallets for tapping on each block to listen for any hollow sounds that might indicate hidden cracks
-they also had a small collection of trowels and other masonry tools
