Setting trusses

Setting roof trusses on a 40' x 60' building. 12' 6" walls. 16" on center. Using a 6035 Traverse Lift telehandler.

[@T00ManyHobbies]

Your skill and precision as a machine operator are awesome to watch when paired with your filming talent to keep a half dozen cameras running, in focus, and in frame - all while keeping an eye on Cody! Combine all this with your amazing eye for editing and your content is outstanding. Your editing shows your great sense for what we as viewers want to see - you allow us to see things in real-time until we get the routine and rhythm, and then move to the time-lapse until there is a detail you want us to catch and appreciate. Keep up the excellent work.

As I'm looking at the flimsy-looking trusses and having a cursory understanding of the building codes here in Miami and then seeing construction in places like Switerzland I'm just amazed how cheap everything is built here. From what I understand the best of our building codes here won't pass in places like Switzerland that have no seismic activity, hurricanes, tornadoes, and other natural issues.

[@AndrewCamarata]

A building like that would do fine under seismic activity, no so much high wind or fire. My steel castle would be fine with wind and fire, a good earth quake (we don't have them), would probably give it a few cracks, but wouldn't make it fail.
