Just amazing footage. The scale of the Giga Factory is mind blowing. How many engineers and project teams, steel, concrete suppliers and to think it’s all happening now in real time. Perhaps there is a future. Thanks heaps.
You should see what they are building for Samsung 25 miles north of here. They are spending 25 billion dollars on the construction.
@@BTSflyer thanks Brad and yes I did check out the Samsung Development just amazing.
nice job enhancing the tunnel images! TNX!
Merci👍👍👍
Thanks Brad
1:07. Southend, south. Fire Escape Passage extensions. Screw-pile extensions all trimmed to height, and capped.
1:22. Southend, south. Fire Escape Passage extensions. Laying a gravel sub-base. Should see rebar placed soon.
2:18. Southend, east. Level 1. Retaining wall rebar continues north. Some pipe elbows off the manifold fitted.
2:23. Southend, south. Under the mezzanine. Left. Extending the conduits towards the vault.
Top right. Under the tower opposite, conduits pre installed from the edge of the slab to sweep bends in the centre. 2.43 top left.
2:43. Southend, Cooling Tower. Concrete pipe saddles left and right under the tower are different to each. Saddles on the right are stepped.
4:31. Parking Garage. Might only be 2 elevators installed.
9:01. Westside, Tunnel Project. Pipes in base of tunnel (the invert). Left to right. Guesstimated ODs. A hose 2” 50mm, 2 x 4” 100mm pipes, 1.5” 40mm conduit, 6” 150mm pipe, 1.5” 40mm conduit, ¾” 20mm conduit, 2” 50mm pipe/conduit, 1.5” 40mm conduit.
9 total.
9:22. Southend, west. Level 1. Left. Half height stud wall. Might be glazed above.
10:50. Tesla Road, north. Ductbank crossing. Speculating an above ground vault or a building to be constructed here.
Must be planning on breaking into the east of the existing north-south ductbanks. Left sweep bends are constructed over the west existing ductbank.
12:12. Casting, Baghouse. Rebar placed for pavement reinstatement.
12:54. BIW, apron. New hydrant to the left of the bare earth, shifted out of the way of the approach to the loading docks. Old hydrant wrapped in blue plastic to the right of the recycling bin.
10:50 Agree completely on a new structure or premade building or buildings.
Cutting into existing duct-banks.... Maybe but that would prove difficult. At the very least they would have to de-energize the duct-banks one at a time.
I still remember the work on the eastside of casting when they demolished the duct-banks from the temporary substation. They first had to disconnect the Superchargers from the building power supply, then back-feed power from the new substation through the old Supercharger vault to temporarily power the building while construction was going on. Doable but a pain in the backside.
@@DavidJohnson-tv2nn 10:50. Not by chance these risers are above (half above to be exact) the existing ductbanks.
If not to somehow interconnect/interact with the existing supply, this could have been achieved anywhere else along the route.
re 9:01. And we are only half-way July. If all the precast floor pieces are onsite it could go very quickly; and no need for a glossy inside finish like in Vegas. How would you finish the driving surface? Just leave it rough concrete and bump, bump, bump, or smooth things over to get a floor like inside the main building? In that case the somewhat rough concrete of the precasts may have been on purpose for better bonding?
@@hardernl8893 9:01. Road deck sections.
I counted 245 in Joe's 10 July video. Not sure of the size, maybe 1.5m to match the liner ring length.
That would give 367.5m 1204'. Tunnel is 415m 1360' by my measure.
Las Vegas tunnel in Jeff Roberts video from a year ago, has an asphalt road surface.
@@DessieDoolan Dessie... I've been thinking about it and you have a very good point. But it is going to be at least as complicated as the work to demolish and reconstruct the duct-banks on the eastside of casting. This is just a highly speculative guess at this point, but it may be possible to construct a new structure or place container switchgear buildings on a concrete pad before cutting into the existing duct-banks. It could go something like this....
1) If the existing north/south duct-banks are deep enough.... Construct short sections of new duct-bank with 90 degree sweeps on top of the existing duct-banks. If not, then alongside the existing duct-banks.
2) Construct a new structure or pour a concrete pad for container switchgear buildings. At this point the existing duct-banks have not been touched.
3) After the new structure is built or container buildings are placed, and the switching equipment is in place.... The existing duct-banks can be de-energized one at a time. Then cut and connected to the new duct-bank sections.
I've been saying for some time that this intersection will be interesting, just had no idea how really interesting it would turn out to be. 😊
Cool, nice close up of the tunnel, thanks Brad.
Thanks Brad
Incrível
Thanks Brad!
New power supply to the building:
@ 10:46 Thanks Brad for this excellent close up view of the vaults! There are 48 (12 x 4) conduit risers sticking up out of the vaults. Highly likely there will be a switchgear building or buildings, similar to the two white buildings on top of the Mega-vault placed here. One thing is clear, the cables won't just go straight through on their way to the factory. Another thing to note is that the 2 existing main power duct-banks to the factory, though not seen because they are covered in dirt... Pass right right between the 4 vaults.
Cooling:
@ 2:39 A good view inside the south expansion. To the right.... Conduits being laid out to a vault that will likely power the cooling pumps and tower.
Cooling tower:
@ 2:58 Excellent close up view under the tower from the east! A large black pipe supported by steel beams can be seen.
Tunnel:
@ 8:56 Excellent close up view inside the tunnel! A water main for fire suppression (Black pipe with reddish-brown fittings), conduit, and various other piping can be seen. Still missing is the orange fiber optic duct. Two spools @ 8:39 (Right).
Rooftop cable trays, north end BIW:
@ 12:43 (Bottom right) Hard to get the exact count of the cables going through the cable ducts on the roof. Guessing 12 cables, 4 three-phase circuits. If anyone can get a more accurate count let me know. The rest of the cables seem to end at the end of the cable tray run for now. Eventually cables will likely be extended all the way to the north.
Parking garage:
@ 3:37 Over all a great design. But in my opinion... A horrible design regarding the bus stop, stairs, and elevators. If parked on the top floor....
You either have to get off the bus and climb the stairs to the 7th floor, or walk hundreds of feet to the elevators, seen here @ 4:26 and 4:35.... Then wait because there are not enough elevators to serve a structure this size.
10:46 Thanks to Dessie who first spotted the conduit risers sticking up out of the vaults a few days ago.
I did say I would fly over them on my next video.
@@BTSflyer And thanks so much for doing that! As well as thanks for all the other great close up views!
Mr Johnson I couldn’t agree with you more concerning the garage…I hope there isn’t anyone older than 40 working there…hahaha But seriously there should of been elevators at the least on all four corners if not more…
It would be nice to know what you are showing us with so many storage areas,
Any particular timestamp?
Every contractor seems to have their own, plus the areas used by Tesla. It’s interesting to see how some are kept very neat and organized, while others look like they could be used in a rural episode of Hoarders
Does anyone know where the cooling towers are for the Main Site (centrifugal chillers) for plant a/c.
Located on under-roof plant mezzanine floors. 3 installations in BIW, that also serve GA, Drivetrain etc.
Another in Battery on the northwest corner.
Top right at 12:13 is the northern most of the 3 installations in BIW.
Jeff Roberts generally does a roof flyover at the end of his videos that give a good view.
@@DessieDoolan Interesting, now I'm wondering where the inlet air to the cooling towers is coming from? Are they using the cooling towers as condensers and plant exhaust? Thanks for your reply.
@@chuckrenard1537 On the BIW side there are 3 installations. The northern most has parallel rows of inlets and exhaust through roof curbs/upstands.
Similar installation on the northwest corner of Battery. Inlets and exhaust are above the roof deck.
The central and southern installations are different in that the roof is open above the plant rooms. Roof deck replaced with expanded metal deck. Exhaust cowls only are above the roof. Air inlet evidently is through the expanded mesh.
Not my field of expertise, retired carpenter/construction worker.
I guess my question is how the hell they gonna keep it from flooding in the winter lol 😅😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Keep what from flooding in the winter? Winter is not flooding season in this part of the world. The biggest floods in this area occur in Fall. With Spring second. But even those are very rare, although not as rare as they were predevelopment of the Austin area. We get floods from training thunderstorms during cold fronts from the north riding under warm moist air from the Gulf of Mexico.
The tunnel? Presumably grade the road and entrance to direct rain runoff elsewhere and add drainage grates at the entrance prevent runoff from entering the tunnel?
@@Bill_N_ATX and occasional hurricanes
It might be of concern if this this was first tunnel ever built. it's already been done hundreds of thousands of times.
