- Priestly Demolition had the task of removing a bridge on the Severn waterway. Check out how they managed to do that while not letting any concrete fall into the river.
The work the company is doing is truly impressive. So love the engineering that goes in behind a lot of what they are achieving. Great, and respect to the whole team.
My uncle worked on those bridges when they were being constructed. He's gone now. RIP
Here in Michigan they avoid all of that pesky demolition, and just wait for the bridges to fall apart underneath you. Who needs all that clean and safety stuff anyways 😂.
Fantastic video, well made!
Excellent work thanks!
Nicely done. Feather in your cap.
Simply genius! Safety includes surveying the structure for asbestos and removing them safely. Awesome stuff!
Looks very professional , good job
I think they did an exceptional job all the way around. Keeping the environment in mind was great. Keeping what's left of a healthy ecosystem for the future is pretty important.
Thanks for the video.
Really nice clean job. Well done.
you guys need to release the video from the BOQ in argentia newfoundland, the time has past and the movie was never released if ever written.. it was amazing and if i wasnt so accident prone id be there along with you by now, but it was advised for the better of the industry to keep my bad luck for roofing. stay safe guys, you do some of the coolest work out there
What's BOQ. Army base?
Yes very well done presentation
Wow, nice job guys!
I saw the job in action one weekend .. i was doing some contract winter maintenance on the Trent Severn building at the time.
No job is to small as long as you have the right equipment, the right people and the know-how! Great project!
SIMPLY THE BEST WAY FOR TO DOFRIENDLY ENVIROMENTAL.CONGRATULATION
That was a fine job and in record time also.
I wouldn't call it a "MUST WATCH!" but it was pretty cool to watch nonetheless. Nice job!
If it says "Must Watch", ... I expect a pair of titties at least!
This very educational boys .the right way to demolish remove level and reinstate 10 out of 10
Could they have used a cutter chain (like the one they cut the hulls of ships that have sunk) to cut the beams in section and lift them out with a crane? again a well laid out plan that worked to the letter. Thanks for an outstanding video. Bravo Zulu to the workers and planners of this operation. (Mississippi gulf coast, USA)
Pretty fun to watch experts do what they do.
Wonder if we should call them to help demolish the covid narrative?
A very good job and a very good video. Thank you.
I'm not an environmentalist. I think that is usually excessive. But this looks like a fine job. Thanks for a well made video.
Welcome to government regulations. 30% of the bid was for environmental regulations
Jonathan. What’s wrong with that?
Yes, let's drop concrete dust into a water way. Especially road top that has drunk in lots of fuel and oil over the years.
Dude we took down a bridge over a functioning rr track. our bosses brother flipped a Kumatsu 300 down on to the tracks. I drove tractor with frameless dumps for 10 years.
I would help you guys out anywhy I can but I dont want to live up North.
:) Damn good job guys :) envirnoment protected, everyones interests are taken care of and everything is good :)
A good plan with a good crew equals a job well done.
Impressive
Pro move..
ahead of schedule ? This is not being done in Quebec or by Quebecers obviously .
safe......... but supervisor wears hard hat ontop of a bump cap
They coulda used those bridges in the States, they had another twenty years left in them!
best comment ever lol...
@@thatclintguy Yeah, if Americans pooled their resources and standardized on methods and materials, I wouldn't have to make that joke. The Germans make awesome boring and build equipment. They have TBMs for pipes and data cables galore. The whole US, especially cities could be slowly modernized and made safer, but piddling townships and municipalities stop work at the city limits. They won't pave one inch for the next township or paint a bridge.
This one was not so hard because no rebar.
Probably cost more to tear down the bridge then it did to build it you talk about milking a job
Low cost is seldom the best project objective. Don't destroy the environment and make sure everyone goes home safe is better corporate management.
Much better with sound off, stop the yapping, not needed.
over paid= no say= sub contractor's=why?
R
that music sure does suck
Great. Due to the ridiculous environmental requirements, it probably cost 50 times more to demolish the bridge than it cost to build it in the first place. And it took 5 times longer than necessary. I hope people enjoy paying for this insanity. It's just the beginning.
Yes, keep pulling figures out of your cloaca and depositing it around in comments.
Fool.
I for one enjoy clean drinking water and healthy aquatic life, but that's just me
As a contractor I cant STAND the chanting "safety is number one" Like we are what all STUPID!!!! What that came from was Insurance liability cost that's through the roof when the democrats started to advertise on TV sue sue sue
Republicans remove EPA regulations. Sb criminal
@@johnknowing-zr8de hardly a hoax...just ask ANY old timer about how the rivers and lakes used to freeze solid to the point they could cut huge blocks of ice and sell them all year long. Now, a winter where the river freezes over in PA is getting really rare. And even if it does freeze, it only lasts a few weeks, not months on end like my grandfathers saw.
thatclintguy Im am old timer in my late 60s, grew up on a creek in the north. Those lake and creeks are getting warmer for ONE basic reason. Millions of miles of new asphalt roads from development The added asphalt put billions of gallons of warmer water into our water shed. I also live near a HUGE river and an avid boater. So lets start with the creeks My creek use to be deeper and faster and dam good fishing 50 years ago The size of the creek at times 100 plus feet wide. Can row on it for miles. Not anymore, the decades of sediment from building created a real shallow creek Generically the more shallow the water the easier to heat the bottom. Add more asphalt heats up the watershed runoff
When you heat up rivers such as the Susquehanna that’s a hell of a big radiator!!!! Aside from that we have been coming out of a mini ice age for decades When was the last time the Delaware river froze Back in Gorge Washington days. Lets go to Germany Black forest The Stradivarius Violin which is made from Germany's black forest During the peak of the mini ice age The summer tree growth was short which the growth rings on the tree was short and close This tempered wood density and is WHY that violin became so special. I could go on and On I suggest watching all my vids I posted to hear the other side of the story. Even the founder of Green Peace says it bogus I posted vids of world-renowned scientists and NASA scientist. Ever wonder why Dems changed the narrative from Global warming to Climate Change, which the climate is always changing. I lived through dems last scare in the 70s Look and Life Mags running around with their heads cut off Remember when all scientists said Marshall Island Bikini Atoll will never support life for 1,000 a years, yet 70 years later
