single bolt walks. ballsy man

[@iw63boomer]

I hear you. I was taught 2 bolts. But they must have their reasons; and it could be as simple as the connector thinks it will hold just fine, and he doesn't want to carry a lot of nuts and bolts

[@Cb138inRs]

Good companies put safety lines on every single beam that goes up. in turn being able to hang every bolt for stuffing or even just hanging from the ends of the beam for every matter right at the ready. a one bolt connection is bad man

[@waynerobinson2301]

iw63boomer is knife plate connection all bolts are in vertical sheer plane too hole good and snug can't roll , bolt up can get it . On west coast most connectors have the nut in same hand as spud when they take hold then bolt in other hand towards spud . We don't put on washers and often use shop bolts or connecting bolts . How ever your gonna do it do it the same way all the time . But yeah your right if you were hanging on a flange you must have bolts both sides top two or three bolts depending on size of iron but plenty so no roll . Also if it's live you can fit it up so no one needs to drive a pen I'm retired sense 05

[@erikaslt]

More like fucking stupid. That's a lot of weight for a single bolt. Doesn't take a long time to put one more bolt. And if you can't carry a lot of bolts in your bolt bag then wtf you have the bolt bag for ? Waisted more time walking the top flange, kicking the first chocker with his foot. Could of walked back and forth on the bottom flange before he removed the first choker. Don't be a hero. It's a dangerous job. Do it right! Other people work around or on it to.

[@allin150]

C'mon everybody knows steel beams create the glass ceiling and therefore are inherently sexist... Lol

[@johnnysecular]

wait you do realize that most women that ask for pay equity are talking about within profession. for example nurses who are men get paid more than nurses who are women even when qualifications and job descriptions are identical. baristas who are men get paid better than baristas who are women, cooks, commercial drivers etc etc. that’s the pay gap they talkin about not the pay difference between an ironworker and a forklift driver. There’s also a sense that some professions that are predominantly worked by women are paid less than professions that are 50/50 or mostly men even when it’s similar jobs; for example house cleaners get paid considerably less than institutional janitors. you also have to take into account that most of this analysis about the pay gap is not coming to conclusions, and is not suggesting to cap working men’s salaries or to get government subsidies. it’s simply trying to understand why the phenomenon exists; and one of the valid explanations when you look at the wider blue collar job market does indeed include the fact that many risky and physically demanding jobs are dominated by men and partly of the nature of the job they are either “naturally” highly compensated or heavily unionized. But there are also other explanations as to why the pay gap persists despite women gaining legal rights. one valid explanation is that women, because they know they cannot realistically get a better pay for the same job will accept low paying positions, whereas men, who know other men who make more for the same position will refuse a job offer that a woman would accept. i really don’t think that women are ever suggesting that they deserve an ironworkers wage for a coffee shop gig, i’e never heard anyone say that, they’re usually saying “equal pay for equal work” which is basically a motto that should apply regardless of sex anyway, and it’s the guiding principle of unionized work, you don’t let any worker undercut the profession and you don’t let any employer undervalue it.

[@johnnysecular]

@Dan Trebune yes what you're saying is mostly true depending on how you crunch the numbers, and it is further reason why professional sectors that do have a pay gap of more than 5% should ask themselves whether it needs to be corrected; perhaps it doesn't need to be corrected, but the question should be asked. i also think that it is not insignificant to dismiss the plight of workers in fields dominated by women who claim they are underpaid simply on the basis of sex, not because their job is less valuable (stats don't account for that, but it doesn't necessarily mean that the phenomenon doesn't exist). And the truth is, countries like Canada, the USA and Germany have a much smaller sex-based wage gap than in China, Vietnam and Bangladesh, which should suggest that the western women's movement was effective; often times women rights activists are dismissed because "the wage gap is so small it practically doesn't exist" when it was they who reduced it in the first place.

Im a steelworker, this is so fucking amazing. We work in cherrypickers all the time And sometimes we also climb to release the Crane. But this guy is a hero so cool. Greetz from Netherland 🇳🇱

Dudes are every bit as skilled as a dentist or doctor doing more important work if you ask me.

[@brandonmarshall1258]

But it takes more intellectual capacity to become a doctor or a dentist.

[@ktkl68]

walt d doctors save lives. God forbid, these guys fall, they go to an ER for an operation to ease their pain and save their lives by doctors. But then that very hospital was built by these guys. I guess everyone is important.

[@waltd3154]

@@brandonmarshall1258 People with a good memory and hard work can become an M.D. or Dentist without a great intellect. You have got to be born with great big brass balls to do this work.

[@ThePizzaGuy1998]

@Swag God who built the hospital where said doctors work?

[@gregsall5872]

@Swag God Non sterile enviroment would mostly likely cause too many infections to be worth it.

my dad was a structural/ornamental union ironworker/state certified welder, etc... for 30yrs. old school bull. he told me tales of him not wearing harnesses on those I beams back in the day before OSHA was really pushing anything. They did what they knew. No one cared about safety until people started falling and suing...
