Cladding the Retaining Walls at the Fort Worth Texas Temple

Stone panels have been secured to the retaining wall at the northeast corner of the Fort Worth Texas Temple site. Grass sod has been laid and trees have been planted around the meetinghouse and in some sections of the temple grounds. The majority of the temple exterior has been clad with stone, and work will soon progress to the mechanical level.

The entrance plaza at the Smithfield Utah Temple is beginning to take shape. A concrete walkway leads from the south sidewalk to the circular plaza, surrounded by a small block retaining wall and anchored by a quatrefoil-shaped planter at the center. Cladding of the front portico of the temple is progressing, and more art-glass windows have been installed. On the grounds, irrigation lines have been laid out and grass lawns are being established.

Framing the Roof for the Stockholm Sweden Temple

Steel trusses are being set for the sloped roof of the Stockholm Sweden Temple, which is currently undergoing reconstruction. Due to issues with the foundation of the previous building, the decision was made to demolish the structure and rebuild it with nearly twice the square footage. A well supported and highly reinforced basement was installed, which will accommodate space for a workshop and mechanical equipment.
