I am not an iron worker but love to see it done. And I knew this kid was slackin' majorly. NO tie off, NO bolt bag, PROBABLY NO SPUD WRENCH. Was he gonna ask for his colleague to whip him a spare? lol
It could kill you. A truck driver in Florida delivering material with "Jesus is my friend" written on the side of his truck was killed by a dropped tape measure. He was not wearing a hard hat.
When I started( 1972)you tied off if you wanted, with only a belt and lanyard. In 2020 you would be wearing a harness with the lanyard coming from the upper middle of your back. 100% tie off, or you get run off. It was damn inconvenient, but the rule.
I’m a concrete finisher and I already see many errors in the first few minutes that would get any true iron worker booted the fuck out. Clearly some rookie ass hacks

Being a Union Ironworker is definitely better, better safety, better working conditions, and better pay ! Have medical have a pension etc.... They get a paycheck and get fired for what ever the boss feels like firing them for ! F**k that BS
@@zackjay71 ok Zack , you tell me what should happen ? The big boss man makes everyone jump through hoops to keep a job and make quotas and people get fired for not meeting them ? And they work til they die and the boss gets rich , and all his workers need to be on welfare like 85-90% of employees at Walmart?
@@zackjay71 ok so you mean breaks as in NYS law mandated 15 minute coffee break , and also lunchtime of 30 minutes ? Those breaks, which we work a 7 or 8 hour day, 7-230 (7 hr) or 7-330(8 hr) , the extra 30 minutes is to make up for or 30 minute lunch break jacka** ! In Union construction in NYC there are no free passes no free breaks ! You are just a scab weasel Zack go back to wherever you came from!
First thing i notice your partner needs to get off his ass when handing iron. He can make it 10 times faster if he stabs you. Second your bolts aren undressed and ready for a quick first connection. Third, you should tooled it from the backside or put your foot on the bottom flange of the piece to help rock it to slap a bolt through. Fourth, don’t be scared to use that bar of yours, and fury I hope you were first to the hook. Y’all made a simple web connection seem like a mid splice connection lol

Nah. You just remember that wherever you are is the floor and you don't waste your time thinking about where there isn't floor because that's not where the work is.
Trust in your equipment and training. Know that there's a responsible amount of fear associated with heights, and that you're normal for having that fear, but remember that you're not the first person to do what you're doing, and that thousands of other people are safely doing the same thing every day.
No this seems non union. If you want to join a union look up local unions where you’re at find what you want to do go up there with your HS diploma and SS card and apply
They seem to be a bit unsure & wreckless as to what they are doing. What the heck was he trying to prove walking across a beam not tied off. Supervisor should be fired.
THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN IN A WORLD OF SHIT IF CHOKER SLIPPED ON HORIZONTAL BEAM BEING VERTICALLY. GUESS THEY NEVER HEARD OF PUTTING A PIECE OF WOOD BETWEEN CHOKER AND BOTTOM OF BEAM

Exactly
well I have to walk like this always
@@Ironworker1 seems like you do have an option. You just choose to do it the unsafe way.
@@Ironworker1 get a new job then if you fall the company will blame you and see they tell you to always tie off

So many mistakes. A good company would have fired these guys.i know my contractors would have.

My friend from elementary school lost his life last year falling from an unknown hight. God bless stay safe Men always Tie off.

I've worked both. I prefer non union. Just have to find a good company to work for.
This came through my stream “Ironworkers NY” as a retired member of local 40 I thought WTF? How does this happen, this is not NYC Ironworkers!
For God sakes... Stand up and grab the iron, It don't have cat shit on it.
and ofc the engineers are there, who doesnt love engineers 🤣🤣
how do u know they were engineers because they wear glasses?
My balls shrank when dude wasn’t even hooked to anything he got balls of steel lmao
Every morning I wake up I'm happy I'm retired !!!!! 😊 💪 BOSTON

Dude invest in bolt bag you miss a bolt it can go down and kill someone or don’t be lazy and bring a bucket of bolts up on iron with you
Latino Ironworkers ? Thats the first . probably none Union .
Anyone got any advice for someone afraid of heights. Y'all have got some balls of steel
I do this for a living as well, find your rythem and relax nothing to b afraid of
Trust in your equipment and training. Know that there's a responsible amount of fear associated with heights, and that you're normal for having that fear, but remember that you're not the first person to do what you're doing, and that thousands of other people are safely doing the same thing every day.
It’s easy just got to have the motivation and dedication to want to do it
Keep being afraid, there's a solid reason why you react that way. Solid as the ground when you hit from up high.🤣
Stay at home.
is this like the carpenters union, where you have to know someone to get it? ive been trying to get in and no luck, any advice is appreciated
Still need a job
I sure do
Yes I do . I’m in eastvale ca
No this seems non union. If you want to join a union look up local unions where you’re at find what you want to do go up there with your HS diploma and SS card and apply
Did u find a job??
Can’t do no 6” or 8” beam yet pulled a nerve cuz I was scared, takes some. Guts and strength
What are they using for fall protection around that poured floor, snow fence? Really?
Scabs
Walking the steel was made illegal in Australia 30 years ago. We had enough deaths from falls from height.

Arent ur tools supposed to be strapped too? That height and dropping ur spud or bullpin is a hella deadly problem
THEY TOOK ERRR JEBSSS. dang scabs
In my country, this method of construction is not in compliance with regulations. too exaggerated.
Union Ironworkers pay for themselves with productivity. Be lucky if those rats get 40 pieces a day like that.
Haha, when you get to the perimeter you tie off..now coon that iron!
Shut up u old clown
I know nothing about this line of work, but, wouldnt rust be a concern?
Iron has to be rusty how else can people tell we walk and sit on iron
It looks like you’re in slow motion

Good catch..!!..👋👋👋⚾⚾😅

These are not ironworkers their scabs
I was fine till I look down
That there's a rat outfit
Non Union . PERIOD.
that is unprofessional why are the taglines wrapped around piece when theres holes ?? and why they did not pick it up on otherside of beam ??
This ain't ironwork. Sorry. This is cheap labor welding shop. Doing a fairly small structural job. Call it what it is.

Union is better
Nooo it’s not
These aren't Union Ironworkers!
I spotted that right off.
Some unions not great but lots are great.

So many things look dodgy with how you guys work. Dropping things, throwing things, standing on the wrong side of the steel etc.... scary
