Great video. One correction - the building getting narrower towards the top was not an aesthetic choice, it was a legal requirement. After the Equitable Building was built downtown, all skyscrapers had to have setbacks if they wanted to go higher. This was done so that the buildings would not block the sunlight from hitting the streets. More info here - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1916_Zoning_Resolution

@allenkatz5652

Жыл бұрын

The zoning law states that the hypotenuse of a right triangle drawn from the opposite side of the street with a 25 degree angle or so can not touch the building which is why the building needs setbacks every few stories on the lower level. The exception to this rule is that 25% of the lot size can be built as high as technically possible. (This explains why developers buy air rights from neighboring plots.) The last setback the Empire Stare Building needed for the zoning law is at the 29th floor. The shape of the building above the 29th floor was to make 8 corner offices while using exactly 25%of the lot size. The floors above the 86th floor observatory were intended to be a mooring mast for dirigibles but the plan was put on hold and scrapped after the Hindenburg accident.

As I remember back in the 70s, they had a glass showcase with a brick in it, and if I remember right it said they had ordered either 10 million or 100 million bricks for the building and had ONE brick left over! Those terra cotta blocks used in the floors were commonly used back then in partition walls and elsewhere, they were why the gothic styled building at 90 West Street which had raging fires after 9/11/01 survived. They still use these blocks to-day in home contruction in Romania, Slovakia, Hungary, and I imagine elsewhere in Europe. I saw google street views of a new house under construction in Hungary, it used those same terra cotta blocks which were then faced with stucco, while the roof was made with red terra cotta roofing tiles. They are superior to the cheap concrete blocks we use- larger in size and having multiple cavities in them, they have more insulation value than concrete blocks, and since they were clay that was hardened and vitrified by FIRE, they stand up to a fire whereas concrete blocks crack and crumble because concrete is made into a powder by grinding up and burning limestone, adding water and sand to that chemically cures it into a hard form but it's not vitrified like terra cotta

You have one correction to make. Ironworkers assembled building by driving hot rivets. High strength bolts weren't used for several more decades.

High strength bolts made their debut in the early 60s. Temporary soft bolts were used to connect members for the riveters to follow.

Steel not iron. Iron is a very soft material. Mix it with slag fold it onto itself many times (like puff pastry) and it becomes a tough material. Wrought iron was used for among other things the Eiffel Tower. Steel in large quantities became available around 1890 and is THE principle construction material for rail, bridges, buildings, cars etc.

Terribly EXCELLENT video! You made me feel so connected to it.

This is one example of old school engineering provided the best results 👍.

That plane also wasn’t a Boeing 767 headed from Boston to L.A on a full tank of gas…

I knew a guy who redid the HVAC in the building. He said there were still burn marks and small aircraft parts behind the finishes.

What an amazing and high quality video! Thank you guys so much for posting it. It really made me appreciate the design of the Empire State Building.

They come from Accrington in Lancashire England. There name comes from Iron being backwards on the mould by accident. They are so strong because the amount of Iron in the clay.

One thing that I noticed on some old film about the construction of the empire state building was how to achieve the required precision that all the steel beams and girders. After all the plates were riveted together, this would leave both ends rough and uneven, the iron workers would run these assembles through a giant milling machine that would shave both ends to a square and determined length. By making these all square and the same over all length, they could easily take them to the building site and put in the main assembly of the building without much drama to get things to line up. The brief moment in the movie clip that had this milling machine, showed it must have been huge. There was one of these Carnegie beams mounted in the machine and the two cutters on either end were both turning. These cutters looked to be about six feet in diameter and the bed of the machine must have been about 50 feet in length. I am curious, is that how big i beams are made, no rivets, all welded. But do they still shave the ends to maintain the length and squared ends?

Really awesome production quality - the building and the video!

Nice knowledge 👌

It was built in 13 months around 90 years ago, no computer aided design, none of the technology we have today. It also was built ahead of schedule and under budget. Compare that to the 6 years with all our modern technology it took to build the new Wembley stadium, which ended up way over schedule and much over budget. How is this possible?

@@singerkgreen jet fuel doesn't melt steel, only softens it. That's how blacksmiths are able to forge steel. Since the twin towers were close to hollow, there wasn't much steel holding it together, causing the site of impact to eventually collapse. The Empire State building could burn for a lot longer without collapsing because it had a lot more steel holding it together. The Twin Towers started to collapse from the top, and everything that was falling would've been heavier (Newton's 2nd law) and crashed right through each floor below it because the floors weren't build to hold that much weight.
