and at 2:50 - the guys wrist is laying on the top of the piling and 6 inches beneath the boom attachment! one bump of a control lever and that hand would be pinched off.
RE-name video to watching paint dry.....................and then I read the other comments and 100% of you said it before I did. I need a nap after watching this. Brutal
It's a blinder haha No harness anywhere love the ladder No hi vi maybe a hand rail somewhere perhaps but apart from all of that h and s aspect its excruciating to watch So slow and haphazard mind you I suppose its cheap until it goes wrong
Can you share a link of the real deal stuff like they have around Lake Michigan in Chicago? I don't know where to begin looking I need this at my home thanks
Wrong scab, as an Operating Engineer, I work with Dockbuilders daily, and these clowns are not dockies. I can guarantee you somebody got seriously injured before this job was done.
No, I was a union member IUOE. This has municipal job writing all over it!🤣 Hudsonhawks got it right. People don't know real Union workers, they think municipal employees are what union looks like. WRONG!
If it was my job to fasten the sheets to the crane thingy, I would want to know the operator had his hands and feet well clear of the controls. Fingers !!!.
you probably dont give a damn but does someone know a method to get back into an instagram account?? I was dumb lost my account password. I appreciate any tricks you can offer me
@Frank Aldo thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im trying it out atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
It's not a plate compacter although a plate compacter may achieve the same ends. It is a purpose-built vibrating mechanism used to drive piles more quickly. First time I saw it in action I couldn't believe it. They were using it to drive huge I-beams into frozen ground. Like a hot knife through butter. Amazing!
It's quite common in Holland. But they run counter rotating eccentric vibrators, essentially the same internals as a proper piling hammer but more interchangeable for different piling. Admittedly, this isn't that. That's just a compactor plate contrary to what another comment says. Absolute shit show
I wonder if their hearing got blown out. Not enough protection, especially the way they wore the ear muffs. Where was OSHA on this job, all kinds of unsafe stuff done here.
Get a decent ladder already. Good way to loose a hand, then got a kick out of that guy waving up and down with his hand, like it wasn't obvious the driver guy couldn't see what was going on.
Running a bolt and nut on every lift??? NEWS FLASH>> Leave a chain connected to the lift. Cut a T slot in the top of the towers then simply run the chain in the T slot ! NO bolts washers and "NUTS" I watched it for 5 min. and could recommend all kinds of things that would speed up this construction. Cut at least 75% of the time needed. Unbelievable waste of time doing it like they are. One tower at a time??? How about pre built sections!!!!
I don't know why they using a system like that. It's slow , labour intensive and primitive. I work for meso solutions. Have a look on TH-cam how we instal sheets.
Are all these guys new to this type of work i think not they must be contractors getting paid by the hour. Thank our lucky stars they never built the empire state building because king kong would have been dead decades before these blokes built it no wonder the countries in a mess and yep it only took just over 400 days to build the empire state building
Holy Shit that's old ,slow, and not the right setup. Feel sorry for the guys. If at least they had a better ,easier connection to the modified vibrator plate. Poor buggers. Can't do fast work if you don't have the iron.

OMG,! What a Mickey Mouse operation!! I was a pile driver operator for nearly 20 years and I could have put down half a dozen sheets by this time
Hey you gotta start somewhere.. Ijs
WITH ONE EYE SHUT NO DOUBT, GLAD I ANT PAYING THEM.
What do you want they are ilegalls.
and at 2:50 - the guys wrist is laying on the top of the piling and 6 inches beneath the boom attachment! one bump of a control lever and that hand would be pinched off.
HAHAHAHAHA you are right..
Must be gettin paid by the hour
I remember my first day on the job too.
The British Labour Party would be proud of this video. Never seen such a bunch of Nicky Mouse works in my life!
RE-name video to watching paint dry.....................and then I read the other comments and 100% of you said it before I did. I need a nap after watching this. Brutal
These are all volunteers at a yacht club...no rush
I'd be embarrassed to show this video
It's a blinder haha
No harness anywhere love the ladder
No hi vi maybe a hand rail somewhere perhaps but apart from all of that h and s aspect its excruciating to watch
So slow and haphazard mind you I suppose its cheap until it goes wrong
also so einer "Rentner-Truppe " zu zuschauen, ist so was von schlaffördernd! Gute Naaaacht! Uahh!
ja veraltetes ,Zeitaufwendiges System!! Teure Baustelle,gut für die Firma!!
So cute! Lil baby sheet piles.
Can you share a link of the real deal stuff like they have around Lake Michigan in Chicago? I don't know where to begin looking I need this at my home thanks
Fast enough for government work.
I was about to say everything underneath but it's all been said, I've never seen such a lot of buggerising about in my life !!!
"Driving Steel Sheets for Seawall", watching the slowest job ever, got to 3:59 no driving yet.
9:07 hammer time slower than slow
Got to be a union job.
Wrong scab, as an Operating Engineer, I work with Dockbuilders daily, and these clowns are not dockies. I can guarantee you somebody got seriously injured before this job was done.

A good way to lose a hand. Stupid, Stupid, Stupid. They make an auto release to disconnect from the pile.
Driver had his hand on the stick ready to do the amputation the second the shackles were off
Ever herd the saying It’s like watching paint dry lol
Must be paid by the hour.
Did this back in the Early 70,s on The Francis Scott Key Bridge But on Alot Bigger Scale , But With Much Bigger Equipment ,
Working method looks as from the past !
In general the work very slow these guys are well experienced plus the machine.
If it was my job to fasten the sheets to the crane thingy, I would want to know the operator had his hands and feet well clear of the controls. Fingers !!!.

@Kaison Duncan Instablaster :)
@Frank Aldo thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im trying it out atm.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
@Frank Aldo it worked and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thanks so much you really help me out :D
@Kaison Duncan you are welcome :)
It's got to be Union workers or city workers 3 men was all they needed for this job
plus a couple of management type guys.
Somebody's gotta hold the clipboard and keep track of the Breaks!
If it was a union job they would at least have a real ladder.
Is that ladder even OSHA approved?
It's been 9 years, I bet they haven't finished !!!!
That is not a sheet pile hammer ! That's for tamping ground, ya its working.
Simon is right. this could be a WTF is wrong with this, classroom discussion.
Best GOLDBRICKS working for the government. I want those slowpokes to go get my
funeral, so it will never come and I will live forever.
Did the excavator complete the job ? All that welding while connected to the sheet pile not good for the computer
every aspect of this operation is WRONG WRONG WRONG!!!! Fire that entire crew before someone gets killed or mamed!!!!!!!
Cool page🔝
Still wondering what is going on here.
how is it that now a plate compactor is an accepted method for pile driving? What a joke.
I don't know and I agree

wtf? must be a "how not to do" video
Never seen anything like it in my life
Those were the days. Welding without an air fed welding mask.
I wonder if their hearing got blown out. Not enough protection, especially the way they wore the ear muffs. Where was OSHA on this job, all kinds of unsafe stuff done here.

Union job
Clearly paid by the hour
6 kerry. Gaa. To. Day
Anybody know what size machine and plate packer to use driving in clay?
when its 20 degrees and your all working for free (except the operator) who cares how fast it s going as long as no gets hurt
Man !!!! What a cluster F--- .
Definitely paid by the hour here boys...😳
Only 5miles to go!
Like watching a Stooges movie..
You know if the personal was trained in safety ,and working smarter NOT harder ,Work would be fun and awarding ??
like watching paint dry,
area code 416 is in Canada. So now ya know, eh.
Talk about *milking* a F*cking job! No wonder these projects cost so damned much... Whatta ya know, *"It's "Break Time!"*
Gloves ??
Hammering starts at 9:08.
ladder unsafe
They couldn't spring for a real ladder?
Wow good
Is that steel sheet? Or recycle milk tin?, In what country are they doing that?
29/01/2020 have they finished the job yet?
Can these be use to build a dock by the ocean?
Good thing they have that signalman, or the operator MAY not have known what to do.
is that a modified vibro plate for asphalt?
Yes it is
Running a bolt and nut on every lift??? NEWS FLASH>> Leave a chain connected to the lift. Cut a T slot in the top of the towers then simply run the chain in the T slot !

Unbelievable waste of time doing it like they are. One tower at a time??? How about pre built sections!!!!
Obviously they know nothing about driving sheet piling.
Low Tech My thoughts exactly!
OSHA has left the chat.
I don't know why they using a system like that. It's slow , labour intensive and primitive. I work for meso solutions. Have a look on TH-cam how we instal sheets.
I've seen 100ft get driven faster. New company? 🤷
outcome the experts.,
Ever heard of a hook rather than a shackle !
What keeps it from rusting out in 3 years
It's probably corten steel
チャッキング 無しかよ 鋼矢板の立ち起しセリの調整無いとは恐れ入る・・ やっぱりその辺の細かさは日本人だけかな？
でも、せったり 倒れたら 鋼矢板は入らなくなるよね
Is that omega type sheet pile?
I bet there on there 5th piece right about now.
Are all these guys new to this type of work i think not they must be contractors getting paid by the hour. Thank our lucky stars they never built the empire state building because king kong would have been dead decades before these blokes built it no wonder the countries in a mess and yep it only took just over 400 days to build the empire state building
With a bigger trackhoe you can smash them down
fighting I love u
You dont have Mens hands in a Trap Zone EVER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And these guys are painful to watch
Cofferdam.
amateur hour
any one having contact no of this piling group???
5 stooges in action. Chinese boys would have that whole shit done by noon. What is wrong with this country?
also like the ladder, got that from your mom's house?
Slow work , job security.
За это время можно заколотить штук пять.
This is a joke right!
painfull,looked like arm in-between sheet and hammer,,.unnecessary
Holy Shit that's old ,slow, and not the right setup. Feel sorry for the guys. If at least they had a better ,easier connection to the modified vibrator plate. Poor buggers. Can't do fast work if you don't have the iron.
What a pity...
These guys belong to the Union, Paid too high for the hours they work. Bloody pathetic work process and output. And obviously unskilled labourers.
worst pile driving crew in history .
there doing a good job.
Looks like amateur hour.
WTF
