Brad, that’s the best flyover that you’ve done so far, you changed up the angles and the views which made it quite interesting. I know I’ve mentioned this before but I quite enjoy your music and I’m very happy that there is no narration, outstanding job. I look forward to everyone of your videos.
It is a challenge to keep things interesting when you keep shooting the same stuff. I like to change up the order of subjects in video to keep it fresh. To do voice over is too much work for too little return. Plus I find it irritating, that is way I turn the audio off while watching Joe's videos. I only looking for thing that I missed or something new starting up on my days off. I watch Jeff's videos too.
5:36 Bottom right. Can see all the cables/hoses/conveyor rollers that have been removed from the tunnel to clear for the 7 decks to be installed.
Thanks Brad.
0:40. Southend, inside. Bottom right. Grade raised almost to the top of the column pedestals.
Reason for use of the term ‘retaining wall’ to differentiate between the grade beam under, should be obvious now.
GA roof. Top. Large new flue/chimney prominent in this shot, a little to the left of the crane.
1:27. Southend, inside. Great view of the retaining walls east-west between the soon to be subterranean passages.
Raised column pedestals one bay north might indicated a change of plans.
Recently added floor beam connection plates on the columns indicates the same.
2:10. Southend. New structure. Backfilling and compacting earth between the footings.
2:47. Parking Garage, inside. Bottom. Right. A glimpse of line marking around the lower stair openings.
3:42. Robotic Avenue. Some curb/kerb laid.
5:05. Highway. Line of pickets/posts along the tunnel alignment.
5:23. Westside. Tunnel Project. About to hoist a back-up deck across to the tunnel.
Bottom right. The removed conveyor bridge beam. Will be re-installed once the back-up decks are in the tunnel.
6:00. Westside. Tunnel Project. Cylindrical component, yellow plastic. Ventilation duct perhaps. Something for David Salisbury to identify.
7:08. New EOL south. Roll-up doors in operation. Cybertrucks exiting.
10:08. Far west. Top right. Area where earth is being extracted is also the likely site for dumping the spoil from the tunnel.
11:57. GA, apron. Right. Ramping up some earth in front of the large door opening.
13:21. Casting, diagonal corner. Apron. Low-loader. Empty.
5:50 As the conveyor belt has been removed from the tunnel can see how it has effectively "reloaded" the belt cassette (but not fully as some cut out for the TBM conveyor section to the rear backup deck). The new roll sitting above the conveyor drive system will be spliced into the existing belt before they re-start (splicing table just below and to the left of the roll).
8:55 I was impressed with how well they've cleared out the Cybertrucks piling up around the place, assuming they were on hold due to the recall issue so that they could be fixed before delivery instead of delivered with a pending recall, but then we get this view, and we see that at least a bunch of them have been moved into this new lot. At least it's better organized now, and it still may be fewer of them than we've seen in the past. I'm under the impression that they have the fix, and so hopefully that lot will clear out over the next week.
More tunnel segments delivered over last 48 hours. Still not all on site yet. Currently about 115 rings worth (173m) on site. Added to the 120m assumed to be already constructed gives us a maximum tunnel length of around 290m so far.
290m. Google earth pro showing the TBM from 2 March. From the tail shield, 290m gets the tunnel at least to the east side of the perimeter road. 323m to the gap in the perimeter grade beam.
@@DessieDoolan I don't think they are 120m completed yet. More like 80m after some review of older videos and a bit of rough measuring on Google Maps. So still quite a few segments to deliver.
6:38 Just noticed the backup deck to the right of the crane with half its tarp cover off looks like a belt drive. If so the TBM has one conveyor along its own length to this point where the spoil transfers to this main belt. This would explain the section of belt now missing from the cassette, having been left inside the tunnel with the TBM front end to be used for the back-up decks. So the spoil conveying system would be. EPB screw conveyor within the TBM shield, to a boot end of the back-up conveyor, to the back of the TBM back-up decks (deck 8?) where it discharges onto the boot end of the tunnel conveyor and drive/tension unit, up into the crown of the tunnel, all the way out to the cassette where it discharges to the cross conveyor and into the spoil bin.
I agree with other people. Best fly over ever. Smooth and low. Thanks Bro.
It is smoother because I didn't speed up the video this time.
Boring Tunnel: Production stopped to install the 7 backup decks. Conveyor split and support beam removed to clear a space for the decks to be installed. Expect the conveyor will be lengthened using the roll of belt that was sitting on top of it (enough to fully recharge the cassette structure).
Seven decks to be installed, connected, tested and commissioned. Expect 10-14 days stoppage.
At 6:02 can see the ventilation cassette being loaded with a 100m length of yellow ventilation duct (120m in so far and no ventilation installed??).
6:02. Ventilation cassette. Is the duct concertina-ed up inside in such a manner that air flows through?
I guess someday with humanoid robots or enough tunnel automation you can skip installing ventillation. inspectors just go in with oxygen.
unfortunate stoppage news. I wonder how many miles of tunnel practice and refinement before they average gary the snail pace. maybe by end of all their vegas tunnel network approvals.
@@DessieDoolanit’s a tube inside a tube. The gap between the tubes is closed at one end. The gap is then filled with the yellow duct all concertinad up, which pulls out as the TBM advances. The ventilation air passing through the smaller inner tube and into the TBM vent ducts.
@@michaelmurray2833I suppose so. But why? It’s pretty simple to pump air down a tube.
Thanks Brad!
South end:
@ 0:38 (Right) Ongoing work to raise the grade inside to the tops of the column pedestals.
Concrete project near easement:
@ 4:47 Columns don't appear to be evenly spaced.
River road:
@ 4:06 At or near final grade.
EOL facility, west:
@ 10:50 Northbound lanes of north/south road now open.
Speculated new power supply for the factory:
@ 14:56 (Left) Old vault for the old duct-bank from the temporary substation. New duct-banks are cutting through/going over the top of the now abandoned duct-bank.
@ 15:05 Conduit pieces and cable from the old duct-bank can be seen at the bottom of the screen.
@ 15:12 and 15:31 Not much change over the weekend, but another view of the construction.
@ 16:10 (Bottom left) West branch of the new duct-banks heading north. Speculating that it will end up here @ 13:14 In this general area.
Also speculating another branch of the duct-banks may run south to the south end of the building, parallel to the easement @ 13:48 (left). Again, pure speculation. We will have to wait and see.
Eastside of casting:
@ 13:47 (Bottom) Bundle of conduit.
4:47. Ends pairs are more closely spaced. All the others are evenly spaced.
@@DessieDoolan Yes, I realize that, just wondering if the closer column spacing on the ends means anything?
@@DavidJohnson-tv2nn The bridge crane in Plastics has the end columns spaced closer together also. Might have been a space consideration, or might have been the location where most hoisting is done from, and closer columns were required.
@@DessieDoolan Thanks.
Thank you Brad for your hard work and dedication. Looks like there is no production this Saturday.
Lots of cybertruck activity.
Looking back at video footage from 28 March (start of tunnelling). It seems the white beam in the conveyor cassette is about 3m lower than it was om Friday 19th April (Stopped for backup installation). 3m x 26 falls in the cassette = 78m advance. Also reviewing the lengths of the umbilical cables and hoses they had strung out at the portal at the start and rough measuring these using google maps suggests a similar length. So, I am revising my "excavation so far" assessment to around 80m not 120m. As the full backup is around 90m long we should see the last deck just sticking out of the tunnel when they are ready to re-start. It makes more sense as if they had complete 120m they would be stopped directly under the highway (not a good place to stop obviously).
5:05. There's a row of pickets along the tunnel alignment. Might the pickets indicate the extent of the tunnel?
@@DessieDoolan I have assumed that those are markers for settlement monitoring ( a regulatory requirement to protect 3rd parties). So yes, they should show the extent of the tunnel.
Very good. I like to see the main entrance and the exit doors for model y. Thanks!
You are “a pilot”, Brad. And, when I was a pilot, nobody ever got sick in my 172 either. . . And I had a LOT of passengers
13:50 I may just not have noticed previously, but all the castings that were on the dirt have been removed. Whether they were used, recycled, put in racks, or just moved is up for anyone to guess.
13:50. I would guess recycled. I have in my mind that in either a Munro video or The Limiting Factor video, a scrap rate of 2% was mentioned.
@@DessieDoolan As long as they've been there, I wouldn't be surprised, but then again, if they were scrap, I don't see why they wouldn't have recycled them months ago. I know I've seen them recycle bins full of them while those were left alone in the past. In any case, my sense of OCD is happy to see them gone, regardless of whether they're just properly racked, used, or recycled.
@@pfcrow When the first bunch of Cybertruck rear castings appeared on the apron, many (most) were marked with a red X indicating scrap, and almost all had other writing on them in black. No one ever got close enough views to see what was written, but I would guess every little inconsistency/fault would have been noted.
Possibly the same with those stacked outside BIW. Kept for reference until all the casting snags had been sorted out.
@@DessieDoolan Recycled you say? Some here insisted that storing things on dirt was bad...turns out it was just trash! ;)
@@sammyk874 Dessie, uncomfortable with speaking in the third person, nevertheless quietly chuckles to himself.
Thank you!
Thanks for the flight Brad!
The new road and the west end is almost ready, Tesla has reserved 2 names for their new road, Renewable Ave and John Goodenough Ln. Names do not appear on the maps atm but will be added after officially naming them.
I was curious who John Goodenough was and why they might name a street after him. Seems he won a Nobel Prize in chemistry in 2019 for development of lithium ion batteries at the age of 97, and passed away last year just short of his 101st birthday. He was also a professor at the University of Texas in Austin.
I emailed Mr. Goodenough once while he was still alive. To my surprise he emailed me back. I had asked him about the glass battery
9:29 On the very top right, there is a trailer with a very tall pole with a set of 24 LED lights, maybe for security protection.
But this side of the parking already has some kights above the parking lot. The big mobile pole is twice as tall as the fixed pedestals.
I don't think the permanent parking lot lights are working yet.
Thnks you Brad, video fantastic, from Spain
Fantastic. Would live some grass planted.
👍
Do you have any idea at all how far the tunnel has gotten?
Between 100-120m estimated from the conveyor length used in the cassette structure and the umbilical cables used to feed the TBM to this point.
We will see when the backup decks are all installed if they stick out of the tunnel or not. I suspect they will just about all go in.
Thanks you Brad, video fantastic, from Spain
I got it, it's a Robo Taxi Stand
Merci👍👍👍
Ok let's go
Thanks Brad
6:51 What can be the usage of this orange and yellow tube at the bottom left? Maybe an air vent, or a water drain ?
By the way, does this tunnel requires to have some escape trap? Maybe a question to ask to the Boring company
during your visit, is about the distance between each security exit for a long tunnel, like in Las Vegas?.
No escape required for this length in the US as I understand it (similar to the ones in Vegas, the convention center tunnel have no escape but the Resorts World one has one due to tis longer length. The orange and yellow item is the ventilation fan at the surface for the temporary ventilation during construction. It will be set-up once the 7 back-up decks have been put into the tunnel in the next week or so. At 6:00 can see the workers loading the ventilation duct (Yellow) into the ventilation cassette (White) which allows it to extend as the TBM moves forward while still maintaining air flow to the TBM. Probably 100m lengths so they will require another cassette change at 2/3 distance.
@@tunnellingsalisbury7605 These tunnels should be built to higher standards due to the danger of EV fires. Which are far worse than gas fires when they happen. In this case.... If the vehicles drive themselves through the tunnel, that solves the safety issue. Though it raises a whole other safety issue if there are any plans to have the vehicles driving themselves outside the tunnel on the roads.
Ev fires can happen in any tunnel so the fire safety standards should be across all sectors.
Tunnel linings are designed based on a certain fire load (time/temp).
EV fires are a lot hotter and harder to control (can’t just starve them of oxygen or heat).
Hence the threat to the lining is increased.
TBC tunnels are small, with relatively thin linings, so the consequences are far higher even if the frequency is lower.
@@davidsalisbury50 Thanks. A couple more question if I may..... Would I also be correct in assuming that the risk to humans with an EV fire in a small confined tunnel is also greatly increased? We've all seen videos of EV fires with jets of fire venting out the side of vehicles. Seems like such hot jets would reflect off the tunnel walls in a narrow tunnel, making evacuation nearly impossible. Getting out of a burning EV would be a problem on an open road, a confined tunnel just makes the problem much worse. Also, how wide is the road surface in a 12' tunnel?
@@DavidJohnson-tv2nn Sorry, I'm no expert on this aspect. I am aware that these questions are being considered with some urgency by fire regulatory authorities.
Some recent EV (possibly hybrid car) fires have led to serious consequences. Luton Airport car park, car transport ship are two examples that made recent headlines. When Richard Hammond (Top Gear/Grand Tour) crashed the Rimmak EV sports car, the battery fire continued to re-ignite itself for 4 days after.
My main concern is the robustness of a reinforced concrete tunnel lining under an EV fire situation, especially these type of small diameter tunnels.
Who’s with me on this? With approximately 4 square miles of land. . . why does Tesla have the need for a multi-storey parking garage. . . To keep gen 2/Robotaxis away from prying eyes? August 8 will be verrrrry interesting. . .
Have room to put up another Giga factory, or three. Air and location, location , location is cheaper than land.🧐
Дякую за твою роботу друже!
Miss the cometary ❤
That would be Joe Tegtmeyer.
Boring tunnel mode change. Spoils conveyor disconnected.
They are adding in another conveyor so they can continue digging. They move with Prufrock untill completely extented and then they retract and another conveyor is added.
@@PM_82 That's my understanding, as well. To put it another way, the conveyer you see doesn't extend into the tunnel (or at least not far), so as they tunnel further, it's essentially a train with the Prufrock machine as the locomotive, and a series of cars pulled behind it that convey materials. You can see a bunch of them under tarps next to the tunnel, and the crane is getting ready to move one into the tunnel.
At least that's what I've gathered from watching what they're doing. It would be awesome to have a documentary video showing it working from the inside.
@@pfcrow Removed the conveyor bridge beam to install the back-up decks. Conveyor will be reinstated once the decks are in the tunnel.
Conveyor runs right up to the back end of the TBM. Suspended from the roof/wall of the tunnel as it advances.
@@PM_82the conveyor is extended inside the tunnel at the back of the TBM backup deck (the 7 units being installed now). The belt itself is stored in the belt cassette (big white structure at the back). This allows the belt to extend about 150m without having to stop.
@@pfcrownot quite like that. The belt extends from the large cassette structure at the back right down the tunnel mounted in the crown (roof), along the top of all the 7 decks being installed now, plus the one deck already in the tunnel, across what is called the towing bridge which connects the TBM to the backup decks and to the boot end under the discharge of the TBM screw conveyor. It is a single continuous belt that can extend without stopping the TBM for around 120m, then it has to be cut and another 250m roll spliced into it to “recharge” the cassette. There are some good TH-cam videos showing animations of the system.
الا المخازن بحسب التوجيهات السابقةالذي وجهتكم
Google Translation: "Except for the stores according to the previous directives that you provided" ???
Що там будуть виробляти ?
Where?
@@sammyk874 у додатковому приміщенні, яке будуть.
Brad...We need to get you new rights to additional music....
Yea, I need to check to see if TH-cam library has any new material.
This sound at beginning is realy bad.
I guess no one knows where the tunnel is going plus according to boring it is the fastest but this does not seem logical. Plus a single tunnel? that is not logical since single point of failure
Where the tunnel is going....
Speculated to go into the new addition of the factory, though I have my doubts. I think, unfortunately, it will emerge short of that.
According to boring it is the fastest.....
Marketing BS from the guy who owns the company! It is a TBM, like the many others around the world.
Single point of failure....
In the event the tunnel is shut down for any reason, there are surface roads like they are using now. In my opinion, the tunnel is a big waste and not needed.
There is no signs that the tunnel will come up under the building. I think it will pop up on the embankment on they other side just like they did between the The Boring Company site and the Starlink Warehouse.
Go to 1:00. Gap in the perimeter grade beam where the excavator is parked. That's the alignment of the tunnel. There are works on that alignment both inside and outside of the building line would make no sense if not for a tunnel or ramp down to the tunnel portal.
Single tunnel? Maybe, and if there's a problem they can use the road system.
@@DessieDoolan There's also a problem with the tunnel alignment theory. Look at Joe's video 4/17/24 at the 27: 17 timestamp. They continue to erect structural steel over the tunnel alignment. The columns are thin with no brackets for bridge crane rails. How are they going to extract the TBM?
@@DavidJohnson-tv2nn A temporary gantry if the TBM is to be dismantled inside. Or if the tunnel is to finish at the perimeter grade beam, then a conventional mobile crane.
My money is on a ramp to the tunnel portal. Ramp entry inside the building.
Yeah, you should.
scare people with your titles We already know it had a recall So of course number Are going to be down Slowly ramping up would have been a little better It just gives people the wrong impression. And this is why most people talk about or hate Tesla because they don't do research and go off of what people post about their vehicles.
Also less Cybertrucks mean that they are fixing the problem and shipping out the fixed Cybertrucks.
The worst vehicles in the whole world 🌎
Great video, terrible sound.
