... Check out this beautiful sidewalk project. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=7df_1205930648 Dave ----- Original Message ----- From: Newsgroups: rec.crafts.metalworking Sent: Thursday, March 20, 2008 5:05 AM Subject: Nice Metal and Concrete Construction Project Check out this beautiful sidewalk project. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=7df_1205930648 Dave OHHH! oh my god that's too funny/scary! incredible video. thanks. b.w. (nice scenery though huh?!) (my balls were tingling when he came upon those big holes) (those mountain climber guys are nucking futs huh? the one guy climbing BENEATH the concrete, oy!) (just imagine the guys who BUILT it! oy! looks like light gauge railroad rails. just carrying them would be enough let along laying them down on the original open framework. oy.) (there was a road "culvert"/bridge near here on a state road. years ago i went under it to see what it looked like and was kinda shocked to see in the 1800's they used recycled light gauge railroad rails. it had to be at least a 20' span. they just laid a bunch of railroad rails across the span, put flat slabs of slate over it and then over the years successive layers of asphalt paving. i couldn't believe there were heavy trucks driving over that RUSTY old thing daily. they replaced it a few years ago.) |

Yep. Made me queasy just watching the video I was going to reach for the Dramamine. Did anyone notice if there was *any* kind of reinforcement in that concrete, something that would handle the tensile loads between the steel beams? Whatever it was, with all the holes in the concrete, it wasn't spaced closely enough to do anything. It looked like the concrete's tensile strength (which approaches zero) was all that stood between someone walking over it and disaster. -- Ed Huntress |

Made me queasy just watching the video AND ... the cameraman was filming and walking at the same time! Sometimes the camera was just on and not being operated, but other times it clearly was being operated. Had I been there every cell of me would have been concentrated on that walk and on my next step. Bob |

The couple is speaking German, but the climbers I think could be hispanic. My guess is that this is either in Mexico, or Central or South America. That is just a guess...I don't know for sure. Dave |
