Steel arrival

Not much to report today, except that the steel has arrived.

Since the design calls for an unusually long span, a wood beam was not possible. This is a narrow I-beam -- technically a S6x12.5. The columns are 3"x3" square tubes. They'll be wrapped or covered with wood. The photo may be misleading. It's a 25ft-long piece!
