No detailed explanation, but a rather robust photo documentation is provided here.

  1. Well that answers one of my age-old questions. That's one heck of a job, very dangerous yet very exciting. I wonder how they would change the windows on Burj Khalifa at 160 stories up. That would be interesting.
