MATT RR Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Thats incredible, especially being done overnight! I was expecting it to be lifted away in segments, cool video thanks for posting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 amazing that they can get this done in 10 hours but they cannot fix some craters in our street for 2 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spunkmeyer Posted March 6, 2016 Author Share Posted March 6, 2016 I'm amazed in the effort to protect the Tarmac? Would have thought it quicker and cheaper (in time and materials gained) to re lay fresh afterwards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westcoaster Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 I love these types of videos, especially as I'm not involved in pulling the 10 hour night-shifts! Have a look at http://www.forth-bridges.co.uk/queensferry-crossing/gallery-queens/north-tower-gallery.html and select 'Queenferry Crossing - Review of 2015' to see a time lapse of a large bridge being built and a smaller one being demolished. The bridge opens later in the year, ahead of schedule and under budget, which must be some kind of miracle! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mc92 Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbH263uB2wQ Here's a similar video, I find these timelapses pretty interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 That's how they demolish tall concrete buildings in HK and China, they crane up a number of diggers to the roof and they work their way down to the ground. Just make sure you don't pull the wrong lever! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
