RE: bridge pier question
If this is for a bridge pier it looks to be part of a precast, segmental unit that will be combined with many ohters (post-tensioned together) to form a tall bridge pier. That said, I do not see any P/T ducts installed as of yet. It's not a cast-in-place form as there is no reinforcing steel extending out of the floor into the form.
As to what stage this is it appears to be early in process of precasting as only the inside form and some rebar is set. The spacers are also present ot make sure there is the correct clear cover on the inside and outside faces.
I hope this helps.
