The boys were getting soft with the fancy schmancy state of the art weight room. Now going back to basics- old school, dungeon style weight training facility to toughen them up. I like it.

Weathered steel. The rust patina prevents further corrosion. Has something like 100 year corrosion resistance. I misspoke about the galvanization. It's been a while since I've had to us the knowledge

It's hard for me to tell exactly what is new and what is already in place based on your picture. Obviously that little jut out in your first picture is new but is that it?

If it doesn't have primer, it's probably getting fireproofing.

That would be just like something they would do...

"We are GOIN' to use stainless for the whole thang!"

"But Bubba, ain't stainless softer than structural steel?"

"Baw, if it wudn't better, why would it cost so much more...are you that stupid?"

Actually that's a copper water pipe, that is insulated, and wrapped with a PVC jacket.
