Everything I see there is terrifying! if the crane arm has bent at this place it is because there is the maximum effort exactly here. Seeing how the metal is treated in this place that needs the most solidity not only hurts me as a metallurgist specializing in welding and metal control, but is absolutely dangerous!!! Twist the metal that has been bent, therefore whose structure has been modified, by applying a second force to it, therefore by subjecting it to a second degradation, to then heat it to red color by medieval means, and then cool it by putting the water on it is metallurgical madness! Not to mention these welds which are not really welds, but rather metal fly droppings which I would not even want to repair the wheel of my wheelbarrow!!!! Are these people aware that it is a heavy lifting device and that they can cause an accident with their accumulation of technical nonsense?

They're all fully aware, did you know that for every worker who dies, there will always be two more to replace him. It's a very sad element to the infrastructure in the way of health and safety. If this freaks you out then don't watch any of the ship dismantle videos. The life of most of the machinery is from China, when the Chinese wear it down to make it uneconomic to repair, then they bodge it for a bit longer. Only then will it be sold to their neighbours the Pakistanis or the Indians, in fact anyone who wants to buy it. These guys will bring it back to life omitting some aspects of the safe operations like the safe working weight guide that would identify if the load was too much red light would be flashing away, they rectify it by taking the bulb out! Not all workshops are the same, the Pakistani truck company repairers smashed up trucks, to which they strip to the chassis, take all the rivets out, streighten the chassis by hydraulic ram, they make two channels that it inside the original rails so tight they had to be pressed in together. Then they rivet the kit and caboodle together and rebuild the whole truck back together and you would struggle to find any accident damage to it. It amazes me that it goes on but the infrastructure isn't there to check that any machines that's been damaged so much that they shouldn't be back in use until fully tested by a government body, not an independent company that the results can be fudge, just my two penneth worth sir!

[@maximemaxime3564]

@@theonlybuzz1969 It's been almost 50 years since I started working in metallurgy, welding, boilermaking and piping and I have spent my life in workshops since the age of 15. I have seen films about ship dismantling in India over 30 years ago and have also worked in Africa, China, South Korea and about 20 other countries in Eastern Europe. is, so I'm fully aware of what's going on there. I have seen welders working in conditions that you may not even imagine and workshops in China, Chad, Cameroon, Morocco and all over North Africa, we work in flip flops, we welding without a mask, we cast the metal without even a simple pair of gloves, and where we work without any machine. So let's not even talk about security. Yes I saw all this, with my eyes seen in reality and not only in videos. But is this a reason to accept that this continues in our time and not be indignant that these people take risks and make other workers take them? Is this a reason for not giving the same importance to the lives of these workers as to those of more advanced countries? Is this a reason not to write that this practice is totally prohibited for the good of all? I have read the comments on similar videos where people rave about the know-how of these workers when what they are doing defies all the rules of good practice and it is also for these people that I am writing these comments. I cannot bring myself to watch these videos laughing at their ignorance due to lack of training and their material deprivation, as some do, and I express my indignation.

[@johnathonwood5523]

@@psychicspy in many cases its actually not more economical. 1) the labor to examine, remove, disassemble, repair, reassemble, & remount is often much higher than simply examining, then remove and replace. 2) Refurbishment is something that puts the liability of the quality of the repair on you, the repairman, vs putting that liability on someone else. These are why modern appliances, phones, vehicles and so much more are designed with replacement in mind more than repair. Vehicles and appliances are still often "repaired", but what really happens is the repairman removes the faulty part and replaces it with a new or in some cases a refurbished version. The refurbishment of things is on the decline in mosy cases unless someone specializes in that refurbishment. I believe, because of the liability and cost of such a service .

[@SteveYoi812]

In Canada welders are taught metallurgy. If the thin boxed beam bent like that the whole structure has been over stressed and metal fatigue and micro cracks in the steel have already occured. Once a crane beam has been damaged from the yeild strength of the metal being surpassed. It should never go back into service but rebuilt from new material. Crane booms are made of fine grain structure high tensile strength steel- typically T1 steels of over 100,000 lb tensile strength requiring specific filler rod, heat input and approved welding procedure. The bent sections show the material has been elongated into a course weak grain structure that has lost it's tensile strength. This would not be allowed to be repaired here due to engineered saftey regulations and government restrictions on crane serviceing. The man welding with no eye and skin protection proves these gentlemen should not repair cranes at the cost of their vision and others saftey.

[@maximemaxime3564]

in industrial matters it is necessary to avoid saying anything. Rolled sheets have a certain structure due to their manufacture and which determines their mechanical resistance. If we modify this structure by bending or shock or temperature etc... we reduce this resistance and doing what we say would be worse than the harm. It would cause a second damage to this steel which has already suffered a first. The only acceptable solution is to put all this steel in the overhaul!!!!

[@gerrard4215]

True. Though I'm not sure about never say die for the dude under it when it goes next time 😦

After such 'repair' it do not last long. For sure it broke week or two later

[@onlythetruthfull]

i thought my welding was bad till I saw this, I would certainly not want to be around that crane.

I bet the Insurance companies will be Impressed with that repair

[@drubradley8821]

Every thing that crane boom was once rated for, in lift capacity at the various angles and reach... For your safety, only use that at a 1/4 of what it once was... For example... If it once could lift 1000 lbs, only lift 250 lbs now and even that is high risk dangerous, Just to be safe, that way you can still keep it making money, as I already know the customer will. The boom really needs to be scraped and a new one ordered and the entire unit serviced and re-certified for the well being of your citizens. I can appreciate the attempted craftsmanship to repair anything metal, but, the process of crane manufacturing, and the special alloys and heat treatment and tempering is exceptionally critical for the performance of the machine. Be careful in what you lift, and have a fall radius around that crane that while active, NO MAN can enter. Be safe.

[@Senkino5o]

Obviously this is a boom section for a telescopic crane boom, so long as this is not the outer boom section they should be able to use this boom fully retracted at max capacity (assuming the rest of it was fixed properly, which I doubt). This boom section will surely catch and jam when telescoping, especially if they attempt to tele out under load. If it doesn't it is extremely likely to fail and could even do so just with the weight of the boom, winch, hook and rigging. Which would be ideal because it might kill less people then.

These videos are potentially very dangerous, some poor devil may think this is an effective repair. The welding is a joke there’s more slag in there than metal.

Hope no lives are lost due to this "repair by experts."

you destroyed the steel temper, will bend very easily now

[@jasonplatco7881]

Wearing sandals while working with heavy metal things & welding. Love how dedicated they are to work place safety. On a side note. "Professionals" at streightning a crain boom that was bent (by lifting something beyond it's weight capacity) doesn't matter how streight and perfect looking they get it.. it will eventually snap where it bent. The bend, the heat, and streightning it all weakened the structural integrity. It's scrap.

[@psychicspy]

It will still be useful at less than its originally certified capacity.

[@jasonplatco7881]

@@psychicspy given they exceeded it's origional capacity to cause that to happen in the first place I don't have any faith in their ability to determine a new safe weight capacity or adhear to it.

[@psychicspy]

@@jasonplatco7881 You assume that the people who misused it will be the same people who recertify it. That gives me no faith in your faith in people.

[@LBG-cf8gu]

they did the best they could with what they had. painful to see the lack of steel toes, likely couldn't afford them. agree the mettalurgy still a weak point.

[@markthomas919]

​@@LBG-cf8gu dont need steel toecaps for welding, they've got their knock-off oakleys😂

This really hurts to watch. Someone could die from the next time it fails. And it certainly is going to fail again.

they work with absolutely no personal protection. Geez! working with heavy metals in scandals. I really dont think there care too much about staying alive.

That crane was bent a couple of times before and fixed. This is the 3rd time it's been fixed.

[@rearspeaker6364]

they say 3rd time's a charm........................

[@alext8828]

​@@rearspeaker6364 I just got a report from Pakistan. The crane broke again and crushed a few guys. They're fixing it again. Should be back in action in a couple of days. They're putting a sign underneath the crane arm. "DON'T STAND HERE, YOU MORON".

[@centexan]

I'm certainly no metal worker, but I was shocked at how thin the steel is on this without any substantial inner support skeleton. And the welding method looks pathetic. It just looks dangerous as hell to put this back into use.

[@108hindu]

I was a crane rigger for 38 years. I would never do a lift with that boom. Booms are high grade steel that is carefully heat treated. That boom can’t be trusted and may get someone killed. I respect the metalworking skill shown but this repair should never have been done. The welder would never have gotten a certification card around here though. Preheating by burning garbage was hilarious.

[@andrewsmith9174]

Omg! I noticed that there was the exact same cross cut welds next to this failure point! They did this once before. It’s a lot of work for nothing. It will break again. Insanity!
