Great video artitect got the design wrong uprights should have been inside steel beam not at side all the weight of house is on the bolts instead of the beams
Wow - this is a good spot - i saw that too. Entire weight of the house supported on just 4 bolts - if they shear, the house collapses - that's really bad mistake by the structural guy. I've seen enough 'seconds from disaster' videos to spot a structural error. Hope everything has turned out OK.
That’s what cranes are for. Hats off for doing it all manually. Nice idea of using the jack. Will they be bedded onto something or just sat on those blocks & brick?
Applaud the ingenuity but scary AF watching. Price hiring a Hooka into the next one of these you have to do, steels would be in and bolted up in a morning. Get a beam trolley for rolling steels around on site anyway, cheaper than a day off with strains. Can also fix a scaffold tube between two trestles (use gravlok clamps) suspend a 1t chain block off tube and put a sling or two around the steel and back to a master ring with some D shackles. No stress on your bodies. Can lift and swing steels around and rest an end back down closer to final lifting position, a bit like "walking" large paving slabs. Then reposition trestles and repeat. It's a faff but safe and easy on your bodies. Even a few short scaffold tubes to slide the steels sideways or roll over even ground (ply sheets) is less stressful. Anything that removes men from being in the crash zone, when these go wrong it's career ending as a minimum, not a few days off work. Make sure the area your Genie is rolling around on is as level and smooth as possible. Looks like you'll need to put some blocks down and then ply over the top so the Genie clears the step made by the ground beam and existing floor. Love your work ethic but don't like the margins on this one. Yes we've all done it and got away with it. Until we don't. Stay safe fellas🤞
I seriously do not know why health and safety has never shut you down, your sites are always unnecessarily so dirty and full of trip hazards, If you have no pride in how your work space looks how can you be trusted. Good luck trying to move the Genie lift on that messy slab they are notorious for being uncooperative at the best of times when fully ladened. Let alone when there isn't a clean surface to move them on. Look I'm not one of these people who constantly comments negatively but this has just got under my skin after watching your blogs.
I don’t need you to trust me tbh. Your comments are appreciated but it’s always best to engage people constructively and specially if you claim to care so much about a subject. In any event don’t stress yourself so much about things and people that don’t directly affect you. I certainly don’t. Everyone’s Out here trying to survive and provide and none of us are perfect including you. Peace
I love it “good morning, and the house is still standing” 🤣😂🤣😂 great job lads! 👍🏼
Massive team effort today. Respect.
Thanks :)
Respect to you all , that looked incredibly difficult .
Well done
Great job, muscles ripping today Darren👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks :)
Wow...You Guys just impress more and more with every Video...Great Job As Usual !!!
Can't believe you did that with just 3 of you doing it. Glad you were wearing a belt/harness to protect yourself.
and trainers.....
It's great to see physics at work, well done team. 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Thank you 🙌
Great job, well done. That was a tough one.
I remember using a turfer and a winch when handling steel in confined spaces, back in the day. Well done guys
Kudos. Get waist belts for all.
Oh, yeah! Perfectly level, of course! I'm glad to see you all wearing hard hats.
Great work boys.
Well done! Looked like hard work. How did you tighten the two bolts at the rear? Didn't look like you had any access?
Think I need to go for a sleep after watching that! Knackering!
Lover your work Daniel 👌👌
Massive help seeing this mate some man 😊
Great work of it without heavy equipment
Well done 👏🏽
When it comes to lifting steals you should give your subs a shout. I would have been quite happy to come lend some muscle to lift those.
Good idea lol we could of done with the help
Wow thank you for sharing my friend ❤️🌼
You're welcome :)
WOW, respect to you all. Be safe, be careful
Thanks :)
Good work! Don't kill Mr A tomorrow :)

@laz001 it’s not an error, that’s how it’s designed. The engineer knows how it’s designed and the building control also approve the design.
Definitely not an error, the weight is spread with a pyramid effect so most of the pressure is on the uprights.
@@markellis3648 But - what’s holding the uprights ‘up’?
@@laz001 The base is cast forming one reinforced support beam. This has also been done on the pipe bridge on the left corner.
Great work.
Top men

top work, hard job for sure...!!!

awesome
That’s the largest meccano set I’ve ever seen. 🤣 Well done for lifting those huge steels into place.
Thanks :D
also the heaviest
Darren, notice the bots hand tight, can they left hand tight to allow for steel expansion for the summer heat? Great effort by team BTW
Wow, what a job! Sorry but I’m cutting my toe nails tomorrow otherwise I would help out…..LOL. Be careful.
Do you know what they weigh they look huge
im not 100% sure but between 350 - 450kg they are
I think you can skip the gym today 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Did everybody wear safety shoes?
Bar 1, new shoes tomorow :)
Have a drink on me...
Thankyou :) Much appreciated!
why not asemble on the ground, then lift in with a crane or pole and pulley.
Wearing £200 trainers shifting heavy steel 😦
You lot are pure crazy 🤪

I think what Darren is saying is shut the f**k up and jog on, Sir. Good day.
