One-week construction time-lapse w/closeups: Week 31 of the Ⓢ-series: curtain wall, endless gravel

[@newsnowfresno6873]

They were strangers when they rode in to the job site. But when they rode in, everyone took notice because these were the legendary Concrete Riders ‼️ They came on strange contraptions with which they seemed to have developed a special closeness, enabling them to seamlessly work together, man and machine, to perform the tasks for which they had been called. As is always the case, soon their tasks were complete and their time on this job was finished. But we can breathe a little easier knowing they have just moved on to share their skills and expertise on the next job in the next town. The Concrete Riders were here. Long live the Concrete Riders‼️‼️

[@craigschofield3222]

Thank you for showing the concrete leveling guy and the ' trusty steeds'

[@MotoRiderTube]

Concrete Riders will be missed!!

[@vinitiusfratila9792]

Thank you once again...!!!

[@constructionwatcher5381]

Thanks again for all the hard work putting this together. Love the music this week.

[@jonathanlanglois2742]

2:26 I actually had a hole that was caving in under my side porch. Rather than fix the issue, I had a load of gravel delivered and I just filled the underside of the porch. Its amazing how gravel can just turn into pseudo concrete after just a few months.

[@tardismole]

No more concrete riders. *bawls eyes out!* Keep the song for the next build series. :) 32:34 I hope they checked to make sure there were no missing parts and/or extra parts. You know what flatpacks are like. :D I'm guessing that the final level they are prepping for at the end of the video is the roof?

[@davelavalla4373]

Very well done video 📹 👏

[@alandud50]

Would be nice to add this Week 31 video to the "2020 S series" playlist. I thought you decided to make a combined 2-week video (31+32) until I discovered the week 32 alone video today... Thanks for your great work throughout the years !!

[@HospitalConstruction]

Strange! I swore I added it. Either I didn't, or KZbin messed up. Must be KZbin, couldn't be me, haha! I added Week 31 to the playlist. Thanks for letting me know.

18:22 hand single for "extend boom "

[@constructionwatcher5381]

At 17:00 and a bit after that you can see some shots of how the tower moves as the crane swings around with various loads. I find it interesting that with these loads, which seem to be pretty light, as the crane swings the load around the tower moves away from the load (it helps to playback at 25% speed to see this). It seems the counterweight over-balances these loads, and it's pulling the tower to it's side. I've not found views of heavier loads, which presumably would case the tower to swing toward the load.

[@afpost]

Farewell trusty steeds of the concrete finishing range!

[@keironthomas2355]

has anyone else noticed of how quick they building this, they Ain't messing around, it only felt like an episode ago they were only breaking ground level now look at. them awesome job, and also awesome job on editing, very professional

[@lyhorng6112]

Amazing construction 😊 stay connected 🙂

[@sopkeuning]

Sometimes this guys doing a slapstick comedian.. it's funny.. hihihihi🤣

[@emadeldinhessain3272]

Great.

[@kfourom]

I would imagine that, since the problem at the Hard Rock Hotel in New Orleans, Every insurance company will demand a complete video record of the construction process. Start to finish, from different angles, time code stamped and maybe done by several independent contractors from each angle. To provide a check on each other. This video looks very professional and was not done by someone as a lark. They were paid and paid well to turn this kind of product.

[@constructionwatcher5381]

Yes, it is very well done. And you have offered an interesting theory. But have you looked at the rest of the Hospital Construction that runs back quite a few years, long before the Hard Rock Hotel issue? And his two separate series on his hotel demo channel, from several years before that, all taken from the same vantage point? I'm afraid your theory is simply wrong. Seems a lot more likely a person with a convenient vantage point and a serious interest in photography has grown more skilled over the years, producing better and better product.

[@HospitalConstruction]

I wish I was well paid! But I actually have no association with any of the construction companies, and the channel actually runs at a net loss. I very much take your theory as a compliment, though, thanks! (I could possibly theoretically break even if I loaded up each video with ads, but I don't want to do that.)

Goodbye Concrete Riders and Hi Ho Cowboy 😢

[@ckmc01]

02:26, In your vedio really an incredible scenario, I can not imagine pouring sand and stone in road outside our fence of our jobsite in TAIWAN. We have most serious environment regulations copy from US and Japan. Similarly case will be fine at least 1000 us dollar each time we violated.

[@fluke196c]

Its just gravel.

[@ckmc01]

Thanks, In Taipei or other major city, We can not easily put anything outside our fence, a steel fence 2.4-3meter height with at least 30cm concrete podium, also water not allowed flow outside, even truck wheel dirt road just outside the gate will be fined more than 1000 dollar. The resident near-by apt to call relavent agency by special phone 1999. I really envy them work in Sanfransisco, not evey regulation are serious but focus in noisy, dust and dirt, we recieved large impact to influence our time and money. I do the construction job more than 30 years at Taiwan.

[@HospitalConstruction]

They sometimes make exceptions when appropriate. In this case, a tight space with no other room, and a small alley that is not used very much. They are sometimes allowed to close or block the alley temporarily.

[@ckmc01]

Thanks for your explanation, I really admired lots of your videos for my good reference, esp. In construction method, safety, quality control and house keeping.

[@docugraf]

2:00 you should buy sand futures, it's getting low around 29:30 in Germany if an ill person has to be "flown out" by the crane there will be always on EMT beside him/her

[@dpj3000]

31 weeks in (plus the TV studio demolition) and I have only just noticed the Tesla dealership next door. Should have gone to Specsavers!

[@jerrypedersen5655]

Not as many cars in the lot in this video compared to a few months ago.

[@MrJonah53]

I would hazard a guess, and say the spider crane guy, hasn't got a ticket to operate it.

[@sydneyshinshi]

He working on getting it. On the job training.

[@clauswerle]

Super

[@sydneyshinshi]

Nah don't retire the cowboy music. Repurpose it to some other activity. I like it.

[@КейлиСтайн]

Did you know that they have those windows installed incorrectly? Oh And By the way, The old greyhound station Is being torn down, to make way for the new rincon Center 2. Just so you know. Also, Stein Tower is Being built in front of the San Francisco public library. Between Grove and market on larkin.

[@jonathanaldana4941]

Why do u say that the windows r wrong?

[@davidsilvera7436]

@@jonathanaldana4941 2nd time shes asking this. Lets see if she responds.

[@gilron9585]

3 more floors to go :)

[@rons3103]

Does the Crane operator get a Parachute to use during an emergency evacuation (Mock) or does he just extend the cable over the building and slide down like the Marines? LOL

[@ckmc01]

As my knowledge, No such parachute or cable for escape, Similar Germany made Libhere crane we used , Infact, I had ever meet crane collapsed and operator killed by magnitude 7.0 earthquake several years ago in Taiwan.

[@davidbrown2849]

Does it look like the lift is in use behind the "spider" around the 8-9 minute mark? Are my eyes deceiving me?

[@craigschofield3222]

Yes there are at least two shots of it in use

[@davidsilvera7436]

It's been in use for a couple of weeks now. I remember Hospital Construction showing it getting setup but he never highlighted when it was first used. It was mainly hidden behind the front building. But you could see it going up and down in the episodes following the setup.

[@itsallspent]

I vote to save the song from retirement. The might even call Pi Trainer. You need to be from Pittsburgh to get that one

[@dklucas1]

A new show coming to HBO Max :Pale Concrete Rider 😂

[@billymallon7342]

Only 3 more floors to go up. After the next floor goes up we should be able to get more tower crane footage

[@OzMacro]

That "Window" framing work they're doing, Bottom Right" seems too labour intensive for what it is. They could have done a prefab frame surely....

[@cliffleschyshyn1018]

Good job in keeping us watching a "hospital getting built" very informative. Question #1, what is the bldg; to the right? #2, Do you only video this build? #3, Are going to do any video's inside? Thanks

[@constructionwatcher5381]

The building on the right is the Avenue Assisted Living, another senior housing building. Hospital Construction will have to answer the other two questions.

[@HospitalConstruction]

I would love to do videos inside, but unfortunately that's not under my control.

[@marinussnijder7941]

Great video's. I wondered If they celebrate getting to the highest point of the construction. The Dutch call it "Pannenbier" freely translate" rooftile beer". Guess wat they will 🍻

[@itsallspent]

Yeah know this work crew should go on AGT (America Got Tallent) I can see Simon's face going "WHAT"

[@semuanyabisa0306]

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🤝🤝🤝🤝🤝🤝🤝🤝🤝🤝 Thanks you showing concrete.

[@kfourom]

is this the same construction company that built the hospital a block or so away? I assume a lot of the subcontractors were the same. Rebar, cement, electrical etc.

[@HospitalConstruction]

Different construction company, although I wouldn't be surprised if there were some of the same local subcontractors.

[@michasleziak1506]

22:55 what's the tag like plate on the right bolt of the bracket?

RIP Concrete Riders song, was one of my favorites 😥 The concrete flatness-measuring guy seemed kind a douche though, happy to see him go.

[@newsnowfresno6873]

👍✌️❤️

[@johngardner2774]

They have been pooring a lot of gravel in do you guys know what is for .

[@silentepsilon888]

I am not sure if you noticed, but there are often text explanations at the top of the video and it was explained that the gravel is basically a filler material that is used instead of styrofoam panels to 'raise' the ground in certain areas where concrete floors will be poured. Watch again from 1:35 and you can see the text explanation at the top of the screen.

[@Luiciones725]

sometimes i wonder if he'll accidentally record some stuff that'll need to be used as evidence for a crime or malpractice or whatever.

[@edimarmanoelsilva207]

Olá bom dia. Que tipo de edificação é esta? É um hospital? É um prédio para moradores ou serão várias lojas para comércio? Fiquei curioso.

[@batlezone1633]

i wonder whats with all the gravel?

[@constructionwatcher5381]

It's explained at the top of the screen at 1:34.

As many as it says in the first line of the description below the video.

Can u move the camera higher

[@mchaeltrizinsky7308]

How high is it going dude........?

[@leoslandscape24]

They say 3 more floors

[@craigschofield3222]

If you look at the right hand side of the building , 10th floor roof,, there are no more columns, however on the left, still going

[@silentepsilon888]

12 or 13 floors dude, so that's 2 or 3 more dude. Don't remember if 12 or 13 total though dude

It says in the first line of the description, right below the video.

Is it just me or does that curtain walling look fragile

[@familiewensink9705]

32:30 lol

[@kmnmalaska]

what does the spider do?

[@silentepsilon888]

it is a crane that can fit inside the building. You can see that it is used to lift up the metal window frames that are being bolted to the outside of the building

[@kmnmalaska]

@@silentepsilon888 Thank you!

[@curtismeskus504]

What is the purpose of the aluminum foil

[@firesurfer]

Flashing

I tried to think up a baked potato joke, but didn't come up with one.

@@HospitalConstruction I'm just glad you didn't make one about flashing.

[@HospitalConstruction]

Ha ha

[@docugraf]

it's ment to stop the coldness from outside the outer wall going in the floor concrete which is in german called a Kältebrücke (cold bridge?)

[@skatesneakerlover]

20:54 Honestly, why do people keep buying and trying to use this cordless shit? It NEVER EVER does what it says it can do on the box - but it will happily burn out for you or break its delicate inner parts. Only thing they're good for is when you feel like PO'ing around in your garden shed with balsa. Buy the professional tool and use it dammit!!

Comrades Americans, give me $ 100, I live in a poor, corrupt, captured gang of bandits from the 90s of Russia, there is not enough money even for food to feed a family normally, everything goes to pay for housing, electricity, gasoline and repair of an old car. How we all envy you here. Well, nothing, soon we will live, it has already begun in Khabarovsk, soon people everywhere will rise up against this gang in power.
