I like how cool the operator is taking this lift just nipping at his finger nails. The skill, the touch, the years, and it all comes down to such a smooth operation. The biggest thing l've operated is 29 ton hydraulic in the 1980s and having the responsibility of people an angle of load made me more aware of my surroundings. I miss those days!

Good job. Such a giant crane

cheers

well shot, thank you for your time and effort

I think the words " Just don't drop it! " were first spoken by man at this project.

Well filmed & thanks for sharing.

A great video. A very impressive crane and feat of engineering. Trust Murphy to get the job done!

I have never seen processing of this kind of work , very interesting and technology of modern day machine is unbelievable !!!!!!!!!!!!

I find it weird they didn’t build any support for that corrugated pipe. That much cable hanging in its own weight can’t be good. Thx for the filming. They surely worked in confined spaces!!

Actually they did. You can see the heavy steel cable outside the plastic pipe at 24:00 and several times after that.

The old steel sections look good by comparison to Canadian bridges of the same age. The rust from salting during the winter just wreaks havoc on paint, fasteners and seams.

@Kaiden Ahmad Thanks for your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm in the hacking process atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

Perhaps more information would have helped. Where ? Why ?

It’s part of a set of videos involving the demolition and replacement. Other parts have relevant details

What prompted the removal of the bridge?

Age, the oldest one was just over 100 years old.

Any idea how heavy the bridge was in total?

Sorry no. I think each single lift was around 150 ton

If the sign wasn't enough to confirm it, the use of the chain hoist(s) definitely was confirmation this video was not recorded in america, lol. If it was Osha would have a conniption fit for even thinking of it, lol.

True on the chin hoist, also those COE trucks.Among a few other signs easy to spot.

Have they built a new bridge to take its place

yes, there is another video of it being installed

After a while I had no idea what was happening. Periodic statements breaking up each step would be a huge help.

I wonder why they lifted the center beam out with the jacks, when the side closest to the overhead lines had already been removed using the crane? There must be a reason other than the proximity of the power lines?

@veryhighguy

The centre one was directly under the overhead lines.

@@veryhighguy ahh, it's not easy to tell from the video, they lift one from the near side, then from the far side over the top with the middle bit left underneath the lines. Serves me right for watching late at night when I can't sleep 😕

Haha no worries. I was there and still it’s deceiving. Probably the angle.

Obviously this is located in the dead center of town

I'm sure each person had a specific role. There's not much they can do when the crane is slowly lifting the bridge sections. Did you expect them to push or something?!
