One-week construction time-lapse with closeups: Week 58 of the Ⓢ-series
Вставка

- Week 58 in the ongoing Ⓢ series, which follows the construction of a new 13-story senior living building in San Francisco. This is a #construction #timelapse with various closeups and "sub-time-lapses" at various speeds, condensing the week of March 8 - 14, 2021, into about 50 minutes.
This episode is a full 7 days, as there was visible work all the way through Sunday (somebody's getting overtime). I kinda like this episode, not because anything momentous is happening, I just like the look and feel of it (but of course I'm biased).
The exterior of the central elevator shaft is pretty much finished off. Louvers above the lower curtain wall are installed, some of which are decorative and some of which cover air intake or exhaust venting. The new panels continue to go in for the lower curtain wall. There's more work on "The Problem Corner" (but don't think it is finally finished - we'll see even more work in upcoming episodes). There's more leak testing, and apparently some leaks were found, since some of the lower curtain wall is taken apart and re-assembled. The top row of "fake" windows is started. And of course there's always caulking, but I tried not to focus on that too much this week, although if you watch closely you can see some caulking at least somewhere in almost every clip. Lots of good clouds, mostly in the first 4 days of the week, and we're getting lots of cloud reflections in the glass now.
Hope you enjoy the episode!

Good morning to San Francisco. Here again Bernd writes from Germany. I'm looking forward to the latest episode again. Stay healthy. 001
Good morning Bernd, I see you have secured your rightful first spot!
@@HospitalConstruction Yes, thank you ;-) But I paid a high price for it. At the time I had been up for over 18 hours and fell asleep in the middle of the episode. But as you can see. Nothing is too much for me for the episode ;-) Please keep doing it. And I thank you for your work here. Please stay healthy
Great series’s!!! Be sad to see it go when all work is completed 😢 looking forward to next series already!!!
That was cool getting to see how they build their stuff. Thanks for the tour. You boys be safe.
Seems like there's a lot of re-doing 🤔
Why don’t the guys working on the problem corner just order a dozen cases of “Flex Seal” and be done with it.😂😂😂
Good morning from Sydney Australia
Good morning!
Hoping that the grey panels on the lower level are not the final facade it would look so much better continuing the glass appearance
Yeah, I can't say that I like them much either.
Excellent timelaps
Nice Video
Great music to go with 'the hat" working on the short wall. 29:15
Ha, I wondered if anyone would notice that!
@@HospitalConstruction ; -) You see .... we find your subtleties. We're all watching you carefully. ;-)
Thanks for another fine episode.
Someone commented a couple of weeks ago about decorative elements being the bane of construction, and you can surely see that here. Not only the endless issues with the fin, but now we see the metal panels on the second and third floors are also causing a lot of re-work.
Anyone else notice the gaps in the insulation at 41:25 and 42:13?
When I first looked at it, I asked myself when was this pink insulation used? Now, after your hint, I think that the inside has been made on the wall, after the window front has been inserted as a whole. Either they didn’t use them properly, or they searched specifically for LEAKS during the spray test. Would that be possible?
@@berndfreier2798 You can see the steel-framed wall that was installed after the concrete panel was in place. It looks to me like they then placed the pink insulation in the voids between the steel studs, which seems reasonable. I thought the first gap might have been caused by looking for leaks. But then I saw the second, and suspected it was just a sloppy job of placing the installation. Note that the guys outside seem to feel no need to fix the issue, which I'd think they might have had their leak-testing crew created them.
@@constructionwatcher5381 That would also be my guess.
Great.
great
I don't get the panelling on the first glass floor it's like they ran out of glass for windows or something.
That's what happens when the architect gets bored and feels the need to get artsy-fartsy.
It seems to be part of the "framed panel section".
On the other hand it could be for anti-reflection purpose. Birds, heat, glare.
I can't say that I'm thrilled with it either. To me, it looks kinda 1960-ish or 1970-ish.
Another question. Couldn't water collect behind the whole holes, which then molds behind them or, even worse, penetrates the building?
great video as usual :)
where are the cameras ? in a rented apartment nearby ?
The "old bird" is back on the job at 30:34.
My god @Construction Watcher. You live up to your name ;-). And you can see: everything is really taken care of here ... :-) Respect.
The perforated panels between the glass along the first (and second?) floors are a disappointment.
Hi from the UK, interesting watch. Why does the building have three different and distinct styles going on??
👍👍
Wow
Anyone know why they would insulate the corner at 39:24 when that's outside space on both sides?
I wondered that myself. I'll see if I can find any answer, but it may take me a while.
I think if the wind blows on this corner, condensation can form behind the metal. and then it would probably collect there and then sink into the concrete floor. Would that be a possibility? It's the "problem corner"
The answer I got is that system, which is apparently called "Window Wall", the standard procedures for that system call for insulation to be there, so the workers follow the required installation procedures as outlined even for edge cases like this where it probably doesn't make any actual performance difference.
Side note regarding terminology: I'm told this type is called "Window Wall" (as opposed to "Curtain Wall"), and that the top (fake) part is still considered "Window Wall" and makes up the back side of the "roof parapet".
@@HospitalConstruction Thanks for the follow-up. Sounds like the answer is, it's easier to follow general procedures than for the designer to make the effort to avoid wasted material and labor?
Question : acier apparent = acier galvanisé ou acier Corten ?
Привет мой друг. Люблю свой канал на UA-cam. Сегодня я проходил мимо. выглядит отлично.
That building is going to have problems over it's lifetime with water leaking in. Who the hell designed this?
