Jib Crane Footing - The Lost Plywood Method

- This was a quick job I fit into the schedule. Working from an engineered plan I had intended to do a little bit more in depth coverage of using a single plywood pattern for both the bottom and top of the bolt cage but I got lost in my busy day and glossed over it somewhat. One of the trickier parts of jib crane bases is getting the bolts straight up and down in the correct pattern and keeping them there when you place the concrete. By using a single plywood form to anchor the bottom of the bolts together and then using the same pattern at the top to hold them while you pour you will keep everything where it belongs. Smaller bases usually only have 1 bolt at each of the 6 stations and you can get away with wet setting them as you pour but there really was no way to do that here with the double mat and imbedded plate ties for the double bolts so this is how I did it.
Great job Jake! Always great to see a piece of equipment installed properly with no corners cut.
Hey thanks!
That sure was a lot of fun. Clearly you have a keen interest and knowledge about various disciplines and I am excited to see you applying your workmanship in all of these disciplines over time. Thanks for putting these videos up on you tube.
Thank you!
No offense but, this is an Andrew Camarata worthy vid. All of this gentlemen s work should get some recognition on the same level. Good job dude! Stay safe.
Hey thanks! will do:-)
Yeah I agree with that Andrew is YT fabulous! This guy's work is awesome also, different types but still worthwhile and great builder!
Nice job, cool idea with the aluminium foil wrap, saves some wire wheeling after the pour!
Never seen a forklift turning the forks vertical, who uses pallets in upright positions?
😂😂😂
Thanks for showing!
👍👍👍
Awesome, Thanks! That forlift carriage gets even better. They rotate 360 non stop either direction and the forks will spread to almost twice the carriage width. So handy.
@@ShredPile 🤓👍
Nice to see the entire process. Thanks for taking us along :)
My pleasure!
Watching Jake makes me want to go work for him!
WOW, you're at nearly 11 THOUSAND subs, that's so exciting!!
Jake-of-all-Trades. 😉
Haha!
Finally! Always wondered where you were. The Montgomery Park sign in the distance gave it away. BALTIMORE! Sure rains a lot there.
This is great, I looked up the Montgomery ward building in Baltimore and it's nearly twice the size of the Portland one at 1.3 million sqft that Mr Colby added information about in an earlier comment. Best comment section ever!
Nice job! Never seen a bull float used as a snow shovel before!! Field expedient though!! LOL Nice change up from building a Mac Mansion Jake! Good post!
Thanks Robert, watching this one made me glad the weather finally turned for good:-)
Well done and you kept your raingear dry!!
It was the best a guy could hope for on a Saturday::-)
the old Monty-ward bldg is the third largest in Portland, at 756k sq ft.cool!
It's an iconic sign and location for sure!
Curious why you removed a fair bit of the grout? Go off early or just wrong height?
Cool to see local workers chipping in instead of just looking on.
Exactly right on both. I had hoped for some smush out but it went off too much to get all the way there. I mixed up some fresh and threw it in there, just didn't film it.
I can’t add anymore superlatives Jake, only a suggestion please. Before you Timelapse, can you show at normal speed so we get a glimpse of. Other than that…can’t wait for next Thursday.
Rock on Sir
Roger that, Most of the time I really try to do just that and I usually go into these jobs with at least a loose capture plan but it all goes out the window if I slip into autopilot mode:-)
Floating stuff on grout... thinner mix - eh..?
Taper the mud before slammin the load....
Carry on
When was this. Where you working? Snow been pretty sparse. Vaughn? Like 6 months ago?
Right at the start of March Ben, it was closer to hwy30 than Vaughn. The snow was from my place on a special snow on jake only storm that left 2' of snow on my place and about 1/4 mile circle around it. There was nothing in PDX or even just down the hill from me.
@@ShredPile so weird. Thats a bit of snow. My rents in astoria. Maybe remember a weekend it was shitty weather. I do the tile store thing on yeon pretty frequently and prefer the drive on 30 rather than 26 or 5 going to astoria.
Hi Jake does this mean that you are finished with the modern house
No Greg, Just caught up on footage for now with it and trying to play catch up on a gob of smaller things as I get ready for the next big project.
I see your Kabota has a bit of a cosmetic rear end issue. :(
Lol, the hood closes but I usually leave it up to help with cooling. Someone else got the first 4500 hrs before I got it:-)
Aluminium foil ..... huh, always used black tape, foil looks much easier. Tell you what though, I used zinc rich primer on all steel that protruded to daylight and after 40 years still mint, even runup edges on truck entrances and column impact plates great stuff if can lift the can off the ground.
Good catch, probably my number one oversight is not enough paint. Yeah the foil gets in the threads real well and if it still gets mud on it it wire wheels right off.
@@ShredPile Wasn't suggesting you made a blue, just sharing the knowledge mate.
@@MUDNROCKS Didn't feel that way Simon, Cheers.
Wonder what you cannot do….multidisciplinary
Are you in Canada?
Oregon
Oregon.
Watch his library, you’ll see how huge everything is and can’t mistake the region. I’m in RI it looks beautiful out there.
