    I don't think those are duck boards, more like planks covering a pit.
    Most of Mesta's plant was driven from below. Difficult to drive
    overhead, when the majority of the product was shifted by
    overhead crane.

    One guy descaling tremendous quantity of iron or steel billets. What leads me to state that?
    Only one work coat hanging on the bridge crane upright, off to his left.
    Unsure how billets make it from chutes to area between crane span, or how the stacking occurs under crane rail.......
