Saturday Back Buster, I Beams For Roof Exhaust

admin

Got a call to do a job yesterday. Everything that could possibly go wrong, went wrong! We got it done tho. Not sure exactly how it works, just went off what the blueprints stated. It's for a roof exhaust. Just a few pics of the job, and my little helper buddy Tom. We tapped into an A/C line, and used a little miller maxstar, as it was the 9th floor of a building. Only took a few pics, was a frustrating day. Concrete wasn't cut back far enough, beams too long, and wrong size web clips, and only two of us. I'm sore today! We made a few bucks tho  Attached ImagesI hate being bi-polar it's awsomeMy Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys

Reply:Got a call early monday morning for more beam work on another side of the building. Had to be done that day. After a full days work me and my little partner went to the city, and busted our azzes till 1:30 in the morning. Building was dark as sh!t and almost forgot to take pics. I was too miserable to think about it while I was working, pipes and conduit like a Mo Fo! These were the easy to see beams. 4 beams, 16 clips, 48 welds in 9 1/2 hrs. 2 hrs sleep and back to work. Glad to be sitting here drinking a beer!  Attached ImagesI hate being bi-polar it's awsomeMy Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys

Reply:Nice work Mike. I have one comment and not to sound like safety police but, where I live, leaving the HILTI clips on the floor is an OSHA violation. Violations were at $2,000 minimum but last week the electrician said the minimum went up to $7,000. That includes spent clips because who leaves new clips on the floor?
