We have been all over the exterior of the Firestone Library, on the Princeton campus, doing renovations so this time I thought I’d take you inside.

Just like our work on the outside, Superior Scaffold was brought in by GC, Massimino Building Corp. to give access to the entire ceiling area at the entrance of the library.

Crews needed to demo the old ceiling to replace and upgrade ductwork directly above the entryway and lobby.

The biggest challenge was that the ceiling encompassed the entire entrance/exit of the library and it had to remain open for students the entire time work was being done.

The other challenge was that our work deck also needed to be outside of the entryway with as few legs as a possible so people could get through the doors easily.

How did our guys accomplish this? By erecting a work deck in two sections roughly 40’ wide by 56’ long with long trusses spread between system scaffold legs to distribute the weight.

This allowed the legs to be put strategically for the least bit of interference with pedestrian traffic.

The work deck was skip plank and plywood and allowed crews to get to every inch of the ceiling for work.

Here you can see the new ceiling going up. It’s a super sturdy and enclosed work space.

We are proud of the work we’ve done in and around the Firestone Library and for Princeton University. This was another job that went off on time and on budget. If you are in the area, I urge you to stop by and check out this historic building. It’s really quite something to see.

And I couldn’t resist today’s musical number. It’s from Animal House and has more to do with college than a library but it’s classic.

And since we are talking about a library – how about this classic clip from Star Trek.
