  • Overall Cybertrucks with the loose throttle peddle covers have been fixed and are being shipped out. More glass for the south building extension. Prufrock it back to tunneling again.

    Thanks Brad.
    0:31. Southend west. Inside. Level 1. Putting up the shuttering for the retaining wall that dog-legs away to the east. Raised floor level in this area will benefit the ramped access to the tunnel portal. Ramp can be half the length. Tunnel useful height 10’, floor elevated 4 to 5’.
    1:08. Southend south. Apron. Gazebos being placed over the suction lifting rigs. They have been keeping these undercover when not in use.
    1:47. Southend east. New Structure. Bottom. Making up rebar cages for beams. How things change in 24 hours. Staging (red scaffold like items) erected for beams to be constructed on top of.
    Bridge crane idea looking shaky. Roof, shaky. Might be a structure for chiller plant after all.
    2:59. Old EOL staging yard. Tent removed.
    3:13. Parking Garage. Top deck. Left. Parking stall line marking.
    BIW. Apron. Right. Green pumps in amongst the temporary chillers.
    4:13. Southend. Roof. Insulation boards being placed. Bottom. Puzzled by the angled board between roof and fire separation wall.
    5:26. Westside. Tunnel Project. Final back-up deck installed. The MPVs loaded with the tunnel segments likely being used to restrain the back-up decks as they are being let into the tunnel. Good view in one of Joe’s photos of the 2 MPVs and a back-up deck all chained together.
    Ventilation ducted fan shifted into place.
    6:05. Westside. Tunnel Project. Bottom right. Sign on the Fence. ‘The Boring Company. Tunneling site. Tesla Gigafactory Austin TX’.
    12:03. Tesla road, north. Easement. Stormwater drain being completed across where the original ductbank from the Temporary Switchyard has been demolished. Stack of conduit and cable, bottom right. 12:48 also.
    13:34. Northend. Road. Bottom left. Pavement being cored for fence post installation.
    13:44. Casting diagonal corner. Apron. Pavement saw-cut/marked for cutting for trenches and a vault.
    15:37. Far north east. Along the fence line top right, and along the road (Gilbert Road) top left. Pipeline works. Works for a sanitary sewer force main were permitted here 18 months ago. 16:46, 16:54 also.
    16:00. Far north storage. Bottom left. Pair of cyclonic filters or similar.

      1:47 Yeah, I saw the structure looking like some sort of reinforced vault or pedestal and thought, Oh, there goes the offload steel coil theory...... remaining theories are as you suggested chiller plant or my latest off the wall theory, a passive energy storage (heat) facility.....

      @@eclecticmemes 1:47. Yep, it pays to be flexible! Should be obvious by Joe's flight tomorrow if it's a roof, or open structure. Leaning towards open structure, but poised to spring to roof, or even back to bridge crane if required.😬
      Interesting watching the progress of the various retaining walls inside. Wasn't expecting those on the west at 0:31.

    All TBM backup decks now installed, conveyor support reinstalled. Backup estimate to be around 95m in total, indicates around 85m of tunnel completed so far with deck 8 sticking out 10m from the portal.
    A couple of days connection and commissioning and they should be tunnelling again.

    from 14:57 onwards: the Utility platform and its immediate environment next to Cathode looks reasonably tidy. Left over carton, woods, pieces of cable etc have been collected. This is a major change really, never seen before. Hopefully this is a sign that construction work is finished and a proper operations regime has started. As I write this there is no mention (yet?) of the Cathode Factory in the ongoing Shareholders mtg but we could make a reasonable guess if for instance cryogenics are loaded in the storage vessels anytime soon.

      @@BTSloan70 Agree, Brad! In fact it is an understatement if I recall that at the April 2023 Shareholders Q&A the erstwhile director Drew mentioned that "trial runs would begin next Quarter". Maybe some aspects of a cathode materials production line could have be tested, but nothing substantive happens there without the key utilities being available: electricity, NG, cooling cycles, dry air and Oxygen/Nitrogen perhaps also Argon and we all have seen how long that has been dragged on. Then there was a late design change when these utilities were also connected to the adjacent Die Shop (the pipelines under the road). But most importantly (just my own interpretation) is that the bottom has fallen out from under the internationally traded Lithium supply, mainly in the form of Spodumene, SC6. The financial incentives for setting up a company-owned Lithium supply route may have evaporated in the time following the April'23 announcement. Still, the IRA rules may provide some incentive for home made batteries, but I don't know in how far that involves the mentioned Lithium supplies & -processing.
      The most definitive sign of Action that I can suggest is loading liquid Oxygen in the storage vessels. That is related to necessary calcination steps. So far all the evaporators are at ambient temperature - no icing whatsoever has been noted and neither a visit by a supply truck.
      For completeness sake I may also add that the Cathode factory was originally intended for " Nickel Chemistries". Maybe the bulk Nickel-chemistries approach (requiring Cathode) may have been victim of a paradigm shift towards other chemistries. Then the Cathode setup may be (partially-) outdated even before trial production.

    All that red shoring suggests a monolithic slab. Probably a waffle slab.

    • @hardernl8893
      @hardernl8893 13 วันที่ผ่านมา +4

      I thought that this shoring and some initial woodwork indicates that only opposing columns are being connected with horizontal concrete beams; not a complete concrete slab or roof over the entire lot. Am I wrong in this? It is of some importance, because an open concrete structure (to be completed with steel, aluminum gratings, pipe hangers etc) is more suitable for a giant cooling plant - one of the possible scenario's for this Mystery Construction project.

      In Airwave Dynamics video from 19 April, a dump truck with a load of spoil from the TBM is seen turning towards that location. 4.49 in that video.
      Not a lot to go on, but no where else on site seems to getting earth dumped. Certainly not going off site in those massive dump trucks.

    New power supply to the factory:
    @ 13:44 (Right, by the building) As first spotted by Dessie... Pavement sawcut by the vaults with markings for two trenches. No longer speculation as to the purpose of the new duct-banks. These vaults were placed months ago but never used until now.
    @ 12:28 Notice the openings cut into thee west side of the vaults. Now here is the speculation....
    Four new duct-banks going to the factory, not two. Unless those were pre-existing openings that will be covered up.... The duct-banks split at this point. Two duct-banks @ 12:57 will go into the northside of casting here @ 13:44. Then two more duct-banks seen here @ 12:37 heading to the south end expansion.
    @ 12:46 Laying stormwater pipe after cutting through the old substation duct-bank. A necessary step since the new duct-banks will go over the top of the pipe.
