Steel detailer is a middle link between engineer and the fabricator, ensuring the shop drawing are detailed exactly per intent of the engineer's design. IMHO, steel detailer is not the main role, for a reason being that the final approval of the detailing is going through the structural engineer's approval. I feel like steel detailer position intended to cut down the engineering costs, especially if they are subcontracted over the seas. Had a wonderful experience with detailers from India ;)
I've seen them used for installation of beams in the uk 🇬🇧, most time though site requires and i-bolt going through a pre drilled hole that has a small o- ring to attach a wire or chain.
I am an active Union Ironworker and I do not approve of this video. These are far from "expert craftsman", and I have no intention and talking bad about them. Unsafe work practices from start to finish.
I agree 1,000,000% as I am a Local 40 Ironworker and I couldnt watch the whole video. These guys are CLOWNS. This is in 361 territory and they are clearly non union SCABS. 361 basically let all the same jobs go RAT, they were too focused on manning the bridges and the airports. In return the scabs do all these little jobs.
Pet peeves- Steelworkers make the steel, "Ironworkers" erect and assemble the steel. Or, Steelworkers trip, Ironworkers fall. Vertical steel pieces are "columns" generally in an "H" shape, horizontal pieces are "beams" and generally in an "I" shape ("I beams"). OSHA seems to target Union jobs looking for every safety violation, whereas this is clearly an overlooked "here today- gone before being caught", tons of violations non-union job. Really embarrassing to see the lack of speed, safety and craftsmanship. I don't like trashing guys trying to feed their families, but would rather see them work Union and get better wages, training, health and retirement benefits, etc. From a retired Union Ironworker, Local 36 (before assimilated into NJ/ Philadelphia Locals), PA.
No toe boards around the floor openings, cables should have some caution flags, elevator hole needs a better barricade, crane operator is wearing a baseball cap, and some missing safety glasses. What else? Power line was a little too close for my comfort but not sure its a violation
Im a union Iron worker local 736 Ontario .. those are rats. Where are those wieners tool belts wtf is going on beam clamp for lifts smh someones gonna die
Steel detailer plays main role here.

Setting with a beam clamp?! Wtf
fuckin idiots clamp can slip use a steel sling retards
no real ironworker would ever hook on with a fuckin beam clamp
Very good and educational. Thanks for sharing.
No worker should be under the beam when being lifted by the crane.
I see people under the beam while being lifted by thr crane.
The health & safety standards are shocking

At 1:45 in this video... i would never use a beam clamp to hook on and erect steel... any other opinions/thoughts?
I understand but some GCs require this. I’m on a job for Turner construction where they insisted we use beam clamp vs nylon straps.
I wonder how much a hour they are paid, Local 361 would have put that building up in about a week, at most!!!
That crane driver looks stoned out of it 🤣

@Allison Edwards I agree you are right, they are just trying to feed their families.

Bunch of joes, where are their tool belts?? Should see union Ironworkers do this
Lové
A hundred pieces? Local 25 Detroit could set that iron in three days.
Yeah, there's more than 100 pieces in that job. I don't think that new what he was talking about.
100 pieces is a day of Union work
They did it in 4 hours
Nice job👍
How rough is that steel... It looks like a beaver chewed the ends off with its teeth!
"experts" without fall protection lol
Would of been cheaper to use a lull to lift the columns instead of the crane.
2:25 in ... The notches on those Beams are shocking! Why wouldn't you dress them?
thank you for making this video.
Should be a rigger with a spotter and tag line
4 weeks!?
Another fine Rat! job.
Plumb and Level

No fucking fall protection? Is this union or not?
These guys are clearly non union and nothing wrong with that,they’re just trying to feed their families. But man, what a fucking joe show
What a joke, you should see it done by union ironworkers who actually were tools.
tradesmen not arts & craftsmen
No one is wearing a harness smfh
Scabs
Im a union Iron worker local 736 Ontario .. those are rats. Where are those wieners tool belts wtf is going on beam clamp for lifts smh someones gonna die
is this one of those parody videos? 🥴 soooo many osha violations 😬
Lame…. We want to see Union Ironworkers!
