    Interesting history of this old girl:
    Plant Gadsden came online in 1949 consisting of two 69mw, coal fired units. What is interesting is that the plant not only generated electricity for the region, but also supplied steam to be used in the manufacturing process at the adjacent Goodyear plant, an arrangement that continued until the Goodyear plant shut down in 2020. In 2015, the plant was converted from coal to natural gas as it's fuel source. If not for the steam production for Goodyear, this plant would have most likely been retired decades earlier. Think of the thousands of jobs these two plants provided over the years.

      Industrial Grade Steam is a bigger source of "CARBON" than all of the other stuff they get mad about. But that would make NUCLEAR a much more attractive and we can't have that can we.

      Thank you for the history. It's pretty amazing how this all works. It would be nice if CDI included a bit of history with each one. It took a lot of hard work and dedication to build these structures and they are gone in an instant. So knowing why they are being demolished after all this time would be nice.

      The steam boilers were in those buildings. The metal buildings were probably just bolted to them. They are some pretty hefty tubes of steel to hold the steam inside them.

    I wonder if anyone ever wonders, when they see one of these old coal plants demolished, how much work was done with the electricity it produced over the span of its lifetime? I would bet most people never think about that stuff. Just imagine how many trillions of hours of artificial light was provided....how many nights hundreds of thousands of homes were kept warm. How many hours of production line time in manufacturing facilities. How much water was pumped. How many lives did it save? Just imagine.

You can tell by the black matting all around the bottom that they intended to knock out 10-15 vertical feet at the base simultaneously which is enough of a drop----straight down----that the rest would have accordioned.

    @rickkearn7100 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I wonder why the chimneys in these videos always break in half just before impact. Perhaps wind resistance once the top picks up enough speed, imparts a force that the lower part begins to detach because it is falling slightly faster than the top? It seems this happens to every chimney in these demolition videos.

    • @Tishers
      @Tishers 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      Its from the loading being in a direction that the chimney was not meant to sustain. Wind resistance is really not an issue but the velocity that the top half is trying to achieve while the bottom half doesn't need to meet puts tremendous additional stresses on the structure. The normal loads on a chimney are vertical, while it is standing vertically. There is some resilience to wind forces because all tall structures would not survive high winds without some resilience.
      A loose pile of bricks stacked that high would collapse in a high wind but the mortar between the bricks also provides structural strength.
      It has been 40 years since my university engineering degree but modeling the forces on a structure like that was fascinating.

      @@Tishers Hey, Tisha, that is a top-shelf explanation. Makes more sense to me now. Cheers.

    You broke it up into a million pieces, and put it in the basement. Nice job containing the boiler house.

    I bought a car from a guy who used to do this. He drank a lot, and told me he would set up the charges in a black out and not remember blowing up the coal mine. That was in the 70s,. He got sober and a different job. Still wild though.

    I dont think the chimney was supposed to go the way it did.

    Maybe someone can explain why they don't have a complete curtain of water hoses surrounding the blast area to limit the dangerous and toxic dust clouds from entering into the surrounding areas. Especially in this case, being right alongside a river.
