Great video. One correction - the building getting narrower towards the top was not an aesthetic choice, it was a legal requirement. After the Equitable Building was built downtown, all skyscrapers had to have setbacks if they wanted to go higher. This was done so that the buildings would not block the sunlight from hitting the streets. More info here - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1916_Zoning_Resolution
The zoning law states that the hypotenuse of a right triangle drawn from the opposite side of the street with a 25 degree angle or so can not touch the building which is why the building needs setbacks every few stories on the lower level. The exception to this rule is that 25% of the lot size can be built as high as technically possible. (This explains why developers buy air rights from neighboring plots.) The last setback the Empire Stare Building needed for the zoning law is at the 29th floor. The shape of the building above the 29th floor was to make 8 corner offices while using exactly 25%of the lot size. The floors above the 86th floor observatory were intended to be a mooring mast for dirigibles but the plan was put on hold and scrapped after the Hindenburg accident.
Im a construction worker and a lifelong new Yorker and this building captures my imagination like no other and even with all my structural know-how it still absolutely boggles my mind this masterpiece was built in the middle of the great depression in 13 months...I mean really even with the superior technology of today it takes us much longer to build though I know this could be accomplished today .. regardless of when it'd still amaze me I mean what we can accomplish and create really is something absolutely worthy of awe...man I'm not afraid of heights but it'd take me a long while to be able to do what these guys did and even with much practice I don't know if I could ever be like them walking 1000 feet up as if they were on the sidewalk...im a major architecture buff and I gotta say overall this building is probably my all time favorite and it never ever gets old peering out a window at it or walking into the lobby..it truly is a masterpiece
Excellent--SO---what is your opinion on the contraversial claims, that the Twin Tower's should NOT, have collapsed in the way they did, (without help?)
@@cornell833 Yea if it the towers were built like ESB I think they'd probably still be standing right now... reminds me of Doc's line to Marty in Back To The Future II where Marty tells Doc to land the Delorean on top of Biff's car.."he'd cut thru us like we were tinfoil" as a kid I didn't understand it but as I got older I clearly saw what he said cuz so many things today are nowhere near as strong as they were 100 years ago and even though the wtc wasn't even close to New when they were destroyed and were built in the late 60s Early 70s even by then numerous things were built significantly weaker..sorry to yap..Im assuming Structural Strength is what u were referring to in your commen

What an amazing and high quality video! Thank you guys so much for posting it. It really made me appreciate the design of the Empire State Building. As for the design, I'll admit that the Chrystler Building looks more like a pencil shape than the Empire, but I get the idea of what the architects were thinking. Both are amazing skyscrapers!

I'm sorry to hear about your financial problems--you make good videos! You don't need all of the fancy animation; simple graphics and good explanations would be fine!
It's a shame you didn't mention the bricks used in the foundation. They were called Accrington Nori's and they still are the strongest brick in the world. They come from Accrington in Lancashire England. There name comes from Iron being backwards on the mould by accident. They are so strong because the amount of Iron in the clay.
As I remember back in the 70s, they had a glass showcase with a brick in it, and if I remember right it said they had ordered either 10 million or 100 million bricks for the building and had ONE brick left over! Those terra cotta blocks used in the floors were commonly used back then in partition walls and elsewhere, they were why the gothic styled building at 90 West Street which had raging fires after 9/11/01 survived. They still use these blocks to-day in home contruction in Romania, Slovakia, Hungary, and I imagine elsewhere in Europe. I saw google street views of a new house under construction in Hungary, it used those same terra cotta blocks which were then faced with stucco, while the roof was made with red terra cotta roofing tiles. They are superior to the cheap concrete blocks we use- larger in size and having multiple cavities in them, they have more insulation value than concrete blocks, and since they were clay that was hardened and vitrified by FIRE, they stand up to a fire whereas concrete blocks crack and crumble because concrete is made into a powder by grinding up and burning limestone, adding water and sand to that chemically cures it into a hard form but it's not vitrified like terra cotta
It was built in 13 months around 90 years ago, no computer aided design, none of the technology we have today. It also was built ahead of schedule and under budget. Compare that to the 6 years with all our modern technology it took to build the new Wembley stadium, which ended up way over schedule and much over budget. How is this possible?
One thing that I noticed on some old film about the construction of the empire state building was how to achieve the required precision that all the steel beams and girders. After all the plates were riveted together, this would leave both ends rough and uneven, the iron workers would run these assembles through a giant milling machine that would shave both ends to a square and determined length. By making these all square and the same over all length, they could easily take them to the building site and put in the main assembly of the building without much drama to get things to line up. The brief moment in the movie clip that had this milling machine, showed it must have been huge. There was one of these Carnegie beams mounted in the machine and the two cutters on either end were both turning. These cutters looked to be about six feet in diameter and the bed of the machine must have been about 50 feet in length. I am curious, is that how big i beams are made, no rivets, all welded. But do they still shave the ends to maintain the length and squared ends?
I really love your channel, I hope people stop watching stupid tikto videos, and spend their time learning from your channel! Love you lesics team! 💪💯🔥 Stay strong
The first Steel framed structure, used to build and support a large Factory, was in Shrewsbury Shropshire, England, in the late 18th century. Prior to this, , all buildings had beams of oak, which burned easily.
The amazing thing is the lack of comments with the obvious observation that the World Trade Centers could not have fallen at free-fall speed because of an airplane crash, given their improved structural rigidity over the ESB
Improved rigidity? Look at the structure of the ESB in this video and compare it to the WTC. Likewise consider how the I beam and clay pot floor would stand up against fire compared to the WTC steel truss design (aside from differences between plane crashes).
finally someone with commese sense to not even worth to compare a barely loaded b-25 bomber going approach speeds to a fully loaded boeing 767-200 moving at hundreds of miles per hour
I think the stainless steel on the Chrysler building was very carefully chosen when they were looking for one that would stay bright. I heard something about it on one of those educational TV series along time ago. It was probably on the Discovery Channel or a similar one.
A building built almost 100 years ago stood up the impact of a plane, but a 110 story monster with far more advanced engineering collapsed like a house of cards in 2001? Seems legit. Right?
No, you are simply mis-informed. The plane that crashed into the Empire State Building weighed 33,500 pounds with a maximum fuel of 974 gallons of fuel traveling at a maximum of 275 mph. The 767 that hit the WTC weighed 284,000 pounds, carried 12,100 gallons of fuel and were traveling in excess of 500 mph. Spot the difference. Not being able to comprehend that makes it redundant for me to explain the difference in the construction of the 2 buildings.

It's been said that the stepped design of the buildings is due to air rights regulations in New York city but I saw no mention of that in this video and instead it would seem that this video suggests it was a purely aesthetic choice. Please explain
2 minor nitpicks: You showed the 101st floor as the 102nd. The 102nd is the space with the open-air wrap-around "porch." Secondly, the 1945 crash did damage a floor girder enough to require replacement, but no vertical columns needed replacement.
It also helps when the explosion, amount of fuel, and sustained heat in combination with the overall penetration into the building is not the same, Russian bot.
There are 103rd and 104th floors too, the 104th floor is the conical room right at the top of the building with the transmission aerial complex mounted on top of it (The 103rd and 104th floors contain the associated transmission electronics cabinets with the 104th floor being completely off-limits to the public).
13 months? amazing!....in the UK we take 13 years just talking about doing something and then wonder why the costs have spiralled.....the Channel tunnel and HS2 as an examples.
it’s not that deep bro💀💀💀newer building uses less material for cost and efficiency because computers were used to avoid unnecessary over engineering to save money, unlike older buildings when not computer aids were available, no one designs a building for taking a hit from an airplane 😅
4:14 “…until 1971 when the World Trade Center overtook the record by 83 meters” Then by 2001 the Empire State Building reclaimed the title of tallest building in New York due to the size of the World Trade Center dropping to 0m
Now, the New WTC is the tallest in NY and in the USA. NY deserves the titles because it is America's #1 city. I'm happy you didn't mention the Sears Tower. I'll stop right there.
OMG another conspiracy theorist with no evidence or intelligence. No, the tiny blow-outs of debris when the levels compacted is just the air being forced out and expelling debris. People adding SO MUCH explosives inside would have been easily seen beforehand.

You have one correction to make. Ironworkers assembled building by driving hot rivets. High strength bolts weren't used for several more decades.
High strength bolts made their debut in the early 60s. Temporary soft bolts were used to connect members for the riveters to follow.

dont believe this garbage lie about 13 months .... you know its impossible , plus there is NO foto or video evidence of construction

By making these all square and the same over all length, they could easily take them to the building site and put in the main assembly of the building without much drama to get things to line up.

No, you are simply mis-informed. The plane that crashed into the Empire State Building weighed 33,500 pounds with a maximum fuel of 974 gallons of fuel traveling at a maximum of 275 mph.

All tall buildings in NYC had to adhere to a 1916 zoning law, that allows light to infiltrate the streets, as the tower gets taller it gets setbacks
I was at the top of Empire State, it felt like the whole thing was shaking, but the views are amazing.
73 elevators. Well the elevator repair and maintenance team got job security hahaha
Excellent animation, particularly for some new to Steel Structures.
They were not steelworkers: steelworkers work in the plants that MAKE the steel. The men who erect it are IRONWORKERS
Informative and professionally executed. Thank you.
That plane was much smaller and lower on fuel.
2 minor nitpicks: You showed the 101st floor as the 102nd. The 102nd is the space with the open-air wrap-around "porch." Secondly, the 1945 crash did damage a floor girder enough to require replacement, but no vertical columns needed replacement.
It helps when there isn't thermite attached to the columns. Like WTC 7. Also known as building 7.
lol thermite
It also helps when the explosion, amount of fuel, and sustained heat in combination with the overall penetration into the building is not the same, Russian bot.
nice explanation lesics
Bot
Here come the 9-11 conspiracy theories
The 9/11 commission report was a sham.
nice work as always
Would be interesting to know if the building was bent after the aircraft crash, even if only a few millimetres or so.
It was not
To cover the columns, perimeter beams were used, but this small change affects the entire structural calculations unless it is designed overhand.
Also please make a animated vedios on related electronics telecommunication engineering
There are 103rd and 104th floors too, the 104th floor is the conical room right at the top of the building with the transmission aerial complex mounted on top of it (The 103rd and 104th floors contain the associated transmission electronics cabinets with the 104th floor being completely off-limits to the public).
It sad that this thing was build during the Great Depression and we can’t get our act together now.
13 months? amazing!....in the UK we take 13 years just talking about doing something and then wonder why the costs have spiralled.....the Channel tunnel and HS2 as an examples.
Nah it stood strong because jet fuel can’t melt steel beams
There is a building in Shrewsbury in the UK that was apparently the first building in the world to use metal girders.
More than 20 years later and they're still trying to explain why 3 building on fire with minimal damaged just collapsed into their own footprints.
it’s not that deep bro💀💀💀newer building uses less material for cost and efficiency because computers were used to avoid unnecessary over engineering to save money, unlike older buildings when not computer aids were available, no one designs a building for taking a hit from an airplane 😅
@@lyteness859 It's pretty deep.
@@lyteness859shut up they lied
@@lyteness859the building was steel not wood, and hit at the top not the bottom
@@lyteness859nobody designs a building for planes to hit it
Good quality channel and video. My grandfather was the pilot of that plane. He told me it was foggy that day. *SANCHO O'DELL ARCHITECTS Ltd*
4:14 “…until 1971 when the World Trade Center overtook the record by 83 meters”
Then by 2001 the Empire State Building reclaimed the title of tallest building in New York due to the size of the World Trade Center dropping to 0m
Now, the New WTC is the tallest in NY and in the USA. NY deserves the titles because it is America's #1 city. I'm happy you didn't mention the Sears Tower. I'll stop right there.
Nice illustration ❤
Meanwhile the Twin Towers 💀
💀
Lesics is back yayyy🤩🤩🤩
fascinating. well-done video. thanks.
The aircrafts that hit the Twin Towers would have done the same minimal damage. The buildings were filled with explosives.
ahahahahahah
OMG another conspiracy theorist with no evidence or intelligence. No, the tiny blow-outs of debris when the levels compacted is just the air being forced out and expelling debris. People adding SO MUCH explosives inside would have been easily seen beforehand.
Everyone must have to like his video because he give a great knowledge❤
Fun fact: zero feminists were used during the construction of this structure
It might not be fun for you but at this point you are more obnoxious than those feminists
Amo o lesics força o canal vai em frente
