Meet the panel

Workers guide a 39,000-pound precast panel (below) into position Friday at the Weyco Group Inc. headquarters in Glendale. A welder (above) unhooks a panel from a crane after it’s lowered into position. A total of 45 panels are being set as part of the project. Opus Development Corp. is overseeing the 112,000-square-foot expansion project and expects to have the work done in mid-October. (Staff photos by Kevin Harnack)
