They are climbing up this thing before the bolts are even torqued down? Not only that but adding more sections at the same time? Absolutely insane! How can that be strong enough?? And that chopper pilot is freaking good.
@workaholic72706 жыл бұрын
Back when I climbed towers, roughly 2 years ago, we always built towers loose. You just try to get a full nut on the bolt, and add the next section, all the way to the top. Then tighten everything up from the top to the ground. I know it sounds sketchy, but if the steel is put together tight, the next sections are harder to get to line up.
@andyeverett19575 жыл бұрын
My thoughts exactly. Hope the engineers who designed this tower specified exactly how it was to be built? Tighten bolts then next section? Please slow down the chopper just a bit. If they drop that torque wrench its a long climb down to get it, 4 feet in the ground?
@CritterFritter5 жыл бұрын
Perhaps the vertical compression helps snug the headspace with successive sections - then torque the connection to specs? Yeah, looks mighty stressful regardless.
