When it comes to working on Boston’s building boom, the rules can be tricky. Constructi­on is usually limited to 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Friday, according to the city’s Inspection­al Services. Work, including demolition, erection, alteration, or repair of any building and excavation would need to be approved by the IS commission­er beyond that timeline. Approximat­ely 60 afterhours permits were approved for this weekend.
