YIKES! The tension and awe which I've experienced in viewing this video has exceeded anything I've ever known. It has also been a tremendously interesting learning experience!
Traveling by road in Canada I was impressed that roads remain open to traffic during even heavy reconstruction. Here in the US state of Washington, the DOT routinely closes main routes completely with little regard for the ill effects.
i LOVE when they do rapid replacement bridges. It is so cool and makes way more sense than typical bridge building... well actually bridge replacing.. Building another bridge right next to the old one and then moving it in place and quickly demo'ing the old bridge should be done on damn near every interstate bridge ever. The raising of the Bayonne bridge is a smiliar instance, except they just needed to raise the road deck... but had to completely replace the ramps onto the bridge while not stopping traffic. Look up BAYONNE Bridge raising deck if you like this video !
SPMT,Self Propelled Modular Transport.A flat deck,with many wheels,each 'unit'has its own engine,many 'units' can be put together.Depending on the weight of the load.
When it comes to the fiber, the repair is the cheap part. But what it's used for if it does go down will cost $100,000's an hour and that's excluding normal banking. If it's trading, then the price will be a factor only the companies know.
You probably dont care at all but does anybody know of a method to get back into an instagram account? I was stupid forgot my account password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me!
@Emerson Caspian Thanks for your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm trying it out now. I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Err. The WHAT river? You mean that thing that used to have the EB Eddy pulp and saw mills on it right across the river from there? That pristine river?
The video is great, but why do they let idiots put all this dramatic music and 'deeply-serious-concerned' commentary over it? It does Priestly Demolition no favours, just makes the company look like a bunch of drama-queens.
good work guys. personally i liked the way this video was made. if it was a straight video of the demo with out a sense of drama i probly would have fallen asleep. besides in a scenario like this if you dont meet your deadline you could be looking at massive financial losses. so personally i feel the dramatic music fit nicely. but again just mho.
so why are they removing this bridge and replacing it with another which seems to be about the same. i can't see any structural problems. no concrete cancer.
@@JohnDoe-gg6kc ,i've spent enough time in the construction and destruction business to know that there are a myriad of reasons why a sound looking structure may no longer be fit for purpose. i shouldn't have made the post.
These are **old** bridges?? In NYC, anything as solid as these wouldn't get replaced for another 50-60 years. The physical infrastructure in NYC is crumbling almost as fast as it's socioeconomic structure.
I know it was most likely unintentional, but thank you for archiving the graffiti that was on this bridge. It's a part of history and (most) of the artists put their time, effort, and money into doing it where it normally wouldn't be seen. Very nicely done.
@@kikoeta Frankly I don't care if it's the Mona fucking Lisa it's graffiti it doesn't belong there. You have a community to answer to before you start putting up big pictures on public property
@@TheBigMclargehuge so if I hung the actual Mona Lisa on public property, you'd consider than vandalism? If you knew more about graffiti than the average person, I'd respect your angle more, but your close-minded approach to all graffiti tells me you aren't at that level. I consider some of it blatant vandalism, but that's usually teenagers who are stupid and don't know the unspoken rules and deep culture that graffiti has.
@@kikoeta I think it's pretty clear any time you paint on something that isn't yours it's vandalism. No one sees "RACKA" in a 20' tall barely legible font and says "This must be preserved so future generations can not give a shit about RACKA". If your graffiti "art" is so special then put it on canvas. But we all know it's not worth canvas, and the artists save money buy using our public and private property as their canvas.. Then some douchebag comes along and tries to tell us it's a gift we should accept. What ever.
Are u guys hiring I can operate everything u use for that job I'm also a welder fabricater and diesel mechanic I no hydrologics and rigging just wondering
once you learn english. "i no hydrologics" first -know not no. second what would you know about the management of water resources if you cant spell for shit?
You should learn a little more about spelling too ! Where are your capital letters in your rant ? Your sentence structure tells me you need to do grade 5 over again , dimwit. Paleo Man ? You're a DICK. LOL
LMAO, I know, you are correct. Its due to sheer bloody laziness. I couldn't agree more, I am a hypocrite for criticizing someone on their spelling. I stand corrected.
Love the excitement and drama.....it’s about time that people get excited about demo... For all you WHINERS AND COMPLAINERS........get a grip,of your stick and get busy....but stop giving an unnecessary opinion
This is the best demo company in canada hands down!!!
Very talented and skillful team.im very amazed by the way you guys remove bridges and buildings.
YIKES! The tension and awe which I've experienced in viewing this video has exceeded anything I've ever known. It has also been a tremendously interesting learning experience!
Awesome time-lapse!! Great video.

9:58 - Ya can't get all rammy... lol!!!!! Enjoyed the creativity for overcoming the issues.

Save peeps some time, I've watched this a few times, always amazed at this feat - th-cam.com/video/WVdZFnJeP_s/w-d-xo.html
2:50 seconds is a bit to long for an intro... Just sayin' ...
Nice bit of work.
0:43 actually the next works out of my mouth are usually a glee fl "high explosives?"

Neat stuff, I enjoy watching your guys work whenever I can find them. What kind of attachment is on that PC600, Atlas Copco CC 5000?

@Emerson Caspian It worked and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thanks so much, you really help me out !
@Kashton Mario you are welcome =)

Those workers seem to trust the rigging very well
Impressive. Very impressive!
It is

Is this PDI?
Cool as a cucumber, it only goes as fast as it goes, that's that!

All I'm hearing is that you're an extremely basic person who needs things spoon-fed to him. Sad.
Shame about the music, spoilt the video
I thought they were preparing for battle!
so why are they removing this bridge and replacing it with another which seems to be about the same. i can't see any structural problems. no concrete cancer.
You can reqest the OSIM from the MTO.
@@JohnDoe-gg6kc ,i've spent enough time in the construction and destruction business to know that there are a myriad of reasons why a sound looking structure may no longer be fit for purpose. i shouldn't have made the post.
i notice graphitee on the bridge. so whats the big deal?
It’s funny how the same video production company also does videos for PDI’s competitor lol.
Only so many companies in the area that will work on an active construction site
no dust supression or dust masks?
That music though.
~SALUTE~...Nice job men! Like Hockey Players...:)...

Sure vandalism is art whatever you say pal

This guy sounds like the guy from the Ron and Ron show
We need good strong bridges that can support TANKS.
Right dear

Thanks for correcting me guys your right I need to go back to grade 5
I thought they were going to blow stuff up!
Who's idea was it to put fiber optics on a bridge that needed to be replaced. Fucking brilliant engineers. What a fucking joke.
Expertise your civil engineering knowledge more efficiently!
That buggy is a 24 wheeler
It is
