The Construction Thread

Are those Carhartts fire resistant?

Did Health and Safety sample the paint for lead?

Has the fire loading on surroundings been signed off?
 
New boots--they cut my last pair off with snips. New hard hat--the old one was evidence. New jeans. I look like a dork.
 
Those jeans dirty, yet?

Yeah, they're dirty now and i havent slept in 30 hours. It took all night to hook onto 2 bridge beams, over 100 long, 8 foot web, and land them on the falsework. They have some really elaborate kind of jury rigged system going on.

Get some rest, or the safety guy will send you home, tomorrow!

They got a late start and everything went wrong. These things are huge though, like at least 130' long, some of them have big walkways attached to them. If it doesn't go up flat, you can't get it in, but rendering the rigging is a huge operation in itself because you have to land it just right and put the load binders back on and boom up in a lift because they won't let us walk on the top flange, etc. Someone (engineer) put the centerline mark in the wrong place and it went downhill from there.
