nah anyone below site manager couldnt give a fuck how much it cost 30million pound controll tower or crappy flats in croydon they get paid the same wages either way there more concerned about what's for dinner
Agreed with the comment above. The managers at the very top might be thinking nonstop about the 30M (well, for all we know), but the team seemed far too level-headed and experienced to let the admin push them into working when it wasn't safe (in fact, they did refuse, and the guys up top had to swallow it). Ironically, it's the guys out in rural Canada shifting those massive silos that really seemed to be working to the absolute limits of what was safe (hell, what they were doing certainly didn't look safe), just because the job was so damn difficult.
Compared to the grain towers move, it seems to me that the Heathrow control tower would be a piece of cake. The ground is relatively flat and they've got high tech moving equipment.
I've actually been up the control tower. The view is spectacular, you can see all the way to Windsor from one side, and all the way to the square mile at the other
The elevator move takes a lot guts, skill and courage, the tower move is nothing compared to the elevators. They make it look more difficult than it really is. The tower is travelling through flat concrete surface, the elevators are travelling through snowy, dirt and hilly roads.
I love the joke at the end like he needs a different elevator than the one that is there it would have made it even better if they actually did bring the wrong one all that way that would be funny as hell seeing them have to move it all again 🤣🤣
Infact here the case is tower will call aircraft to alert them, "please go around tower crossing runway" or it would be rather funny if a helicopter is watching the move and calls tower, " Heathrow tower turn next taxiway"😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 but a great feat, great job by all great technicians and engineers👍👍
The units themselves can raise and lower hydraulically, as seen in how they self level for the ramp . So they just drive under on the lowest setting and raise them up.

@@justbe4481 I can possibly agree if these were office buildings or other type occupied building that have complex electrical and mechanical systems but these are grain silos. Not very complex. I would love to know what this move cost.
The team moving those silos seemed to be really risking their necks in that move. The conditions and terrain clearly just heightened the difficulty, but that just did not look safe. Were there any other safety measures the client could have paid for?
I'm Russia tower tall you. Just ask Eegor over here mister sparky da. Dat Canadian tall structure mover is tough like bear. Almost as tough as great leader Vladimiere. Tumb up do you. One plused.
7:18 Nope. Heathrow is not the world's busiest airport by passenger traffic. That would be Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International and it's been number one for many years including when this video was made back in 2007.
Those Italian platforms aren't new technology. Watch an old episode of Thunderbirds where a Concorde like jet's undercarriage failed and Thunderbird 2 brought 3 of those remote platforms in so that the jet could land safely, one under each wing and one under the nose, with Virgil Tracey at the controls.
If the grain tower location has rail road tracks and the exact location where it needs to go has rail road tracks why not just load them onto rail cars??
They are two different tracks. La Rivière (where it came from) is a CP line that runs east to west across southern Manitoba. Somerset was a CN line that ran east to west across southern Manitoba 12 miles north of the La rivière track. The Somerset CN line was actually removed in 2007, 2 years after the elevator was set up in Somerset. So in other words, it was physically impossible to move down rail tracks because the tracks in the two towns shown here run parallel to each other 10 or more miles apart. Also owned by separate companies, these tracks don’t connect anywhere.
That move crew at Heathrow are a bunch of wimps. I've worked 36 hrs straight without a break. We were putting a roof on a 20 story building. Come on lads!!!!!
Hate to have to call ya out but at the beginning you said it was a cafe moving across the road but that’s wrong , it was a train station that’s now an art gallery in Whitby ontario
Grain elevator. The 3 steel bins are called bins or sometimes but rarely called silos. The other structure that’s not as tall as the main elevator is called an annex.
Granaries are small “bins” that can still be seen on some farmyards that are made of wood. They predate the steel bins that have been used from the 1960s through to today.
Item in restricted area and needs to be checked .. it’s a bloody building!! It’s gunna sit in the airport for its entire life! Not something smuggled in a luggage. Absolutely stupid and pathetic waste of time!
Only a mile on hard level surface with so much tech and the ancients moved giant blocks of stone over the country side many miles no tech who was Superior ?
They really didn't need to use gps to navigate I mean maps of the airport are public knowledge... google it for fuck sake, at the very least get taxi instructions from tower.

This must've been the first time in history that ATC had to give clearance for the tower to cross runway 😁 [43:28]

Background opera is crazy one...
I would have thought the airport tower would be taller,I originally asumed that this was the top half of it.
So how did they lift the control tower onto the moving platforms? That bit seemed to be skipped over!
The units themselves can raise and lower hydraulically, as seen in how they self level for the ramp . So they just drive under on the lowest setting and raise them up.
A "rout" is a military defeat, a "route" is the path of a journey.

How much would it have cost to build five new grain towers versus the cost to move? What does it cost for a move like this???
It cost far less to move buildings then to build a new one.
@@justbe4481 I can possibly agree if these were office buildings or other type occupied building that have complex electrical and mechanical systems but these are grain silos. Not very complex. I would love to know what this move cost.
Grain silo's can actually be quite expensive. Depends on the silo. Ask Elon Musk! Lol.
Probably way less to build new stuff. The move would be freaking expensive.
@@justbe4481 yeah I don't see that. Moving those buildings would be wicked expensive.
The team moving those silos seemed to be really risking their necks in that move. The conditions and terrain clearly just heightened the difficulty, but that just did not look safe. Were there any other safety measures the client could have paid for?
Awesome
Surely it would have been easier to just build a new grain tower....and cheaper!
This grain elevator was only ten years old when they moved it in 2004. It was built in 1994.

How many adverts do you need?
If the grain tower location has rail road tracks and the exact location where it needs to go has rail road tracks why not just load them onto rail cars??
the weight would most likely damage the tracks not to mention less control when stopping and no ability to turn as your be on a track
