Dit kan ook onder door de flens.
Maar mooie beelden , mooi beroep ( als je jong bent )
My boy able!
Oh yeah!!
Thanks for posting! What local are you guys up north? 433 in SoCal.
I’m looking to get into 118. How long does the process typically take?
Lovin the videos!
When I went through it was 3 years.
Sacramento, first you need to know someone from 118........
@@DG-uw6wx old timer!
@@DG-uw6wxyea it’s about 3 years unlike other trades which takes 5 years
DirtyWhiteBoy, I’m living in SF and trying to get into local 377. I just got out two years ago and have been preparing to get into the trades. I’m coming in after my daughters Xmas vacation. I’m willing and able to do whatever. I enjoy your videos and have been practicing knots and buying up tools. Do you have any pointers for me or does anyone on here? I’m not new to hard work.
Local 86 always looking for new IW . I'm about to journey out next week .. just be confident and humble and learn something new everyday and you'll be alright brotha
Local 34 piledrivers you will thank me later
Good Workers
Dumb Question. I see a lot of videos of guys connecting beams. It seems they get a few bolts in and move on. Is there another crew that comes behind the connectors and torques the bolts? Thanks. Great videos
Yes there is a bolt up crew who falls behind and stuffs bolts. Then a crew with a tc gun to torque all bolts.
Yeah, bolt up gang, then plumb and impact the building.
What’s the difference from local 118 and 378 besides one ☝️ being in Sacramento and the other one ☝️ in Benicia ?
That’s the difference my man is the area . We’re all ironworkers you just join the local that’s closest to where you live at .
Can someone explain to me how are you can pre-drill holes on a 50 foot beam and have them lined up perfectly with the existing structure? It seems even temperature swings during the day could cause those holes to fall out of alignment. I just don’t understand how they get that precision.
@@svensvrgen6336 I’m not asking how the holes get aligned. I’m asking how they achieve the accuracy during the drilling of the holes.
The shop fabricates the steel, using detailed shop drawings. They have all the holes, clips, copes, etc on there, the diameters and locations, everything.
These drawings have already been submitted by an engineer, approved, then a detailer provides a working set of drawings to the shop and erector.
It's not like cutting 2"×4"s onsite, each piece is marked and shipped in sequence for it to be set. In dense urban areas, there is very little room for storing materials, including steel, onsite.
@@peteywheatstraws4909 I suppose I’m asking a different question. Let me try again. Suppose you erect two 50’ members vertically, spaced 100’ apart. Then you install a cross member at the top, bridging the two vertical ones. If those vertical members are erected just a fraction of a degree off it will be enough to cause the pre-drilled holes to fall out of alignment. Hell, even changes in temperature (ambient) of the steel cross member could be enough to move the holes out of alignment. So I guess what I’m asking is, how do you erect vertical members at the foundation level to the accuracy required to accept pre-drilled bolts/holes?
@@LSUtiger607 that’s why you plumb your columns. If your columns are plumb they’ll be in line and everything will be square. If temperature moves anything it would have to be the whole building not just one column line
@@LSUtiger607there is a lot of sway and give in 50’ columns that’s why we carry our sleever bars when’s it’s off a little or a lot you use the leverage of your tool or if it’s real bad a tool called a come along (that was the tool that they used on the tube brace) that pulls the structure together if it’s too narrow you pull your bar and pry it out
Next week I'll travel to Saudi Arabia, can you gave me some advice for I'm sa first timer. Thank you 🙂
Plan the work , work the plan
Who's hanging the iron
Child’s play. Big tinker toys.
do you need to go to school for this job?
right after you start they send you to class. if you're union. like a month or two max after you start.
I used to erect steel buildings, believe it or not the only part that scared me was when the beam was being lowered or going overhead
What's the rate out there?
30 starting
My dog trey
🇧🇩
Walking the steel is banned unless we really have to in the UK. I feel safer walking the steel rather then being in a 185ft cherry picker (mewp)
Ain't no non union job. Guaran-mother fuckin teed!
We aren’t rats I can guarantee you that
Load hanging of a come along. Risky. Could slip. Always use a chain fall.
Why would a come a long slip?
@@adamv82They just aren't designed to suspend loads. Ment to pull.
You never send a brace header with a chain fall that’s unheard of dude . 3 ton Harrington come alongs. Never once in my career seen a chain fall to send a brace .
The come along is only there to pick up the deflection from the 1/16” slop in the bolt holes. Excellent rigging, have done the same on very similar pieces
Another Bullard ruined by a connecter!!! Paint, really?
Blah blah blah
@@Dirtywhiteboy118 Do you know M. Grecco?
Lol . Yes
@@Dirtywhiteboy118 Omg, he worked for me in the early 90's for Madison Industries....He boomed around with me. Those were the days!
@@bak2812 he’s still around running work grumpy old bastard now days hahaha cool guy tho
Whats the point of having harnesses and tie off lines if you arent going to clip into them?
