Jib Crane Footing - The Lost Plywood Method

  • This was a quick job I fit into the schedule. Working from an engineered plan I had intended to do a little bit more in depth coverage of using a single plywood pattern for both the bottom and top of the bolt cage but I got lost in my busy day and glossed over it somewhat. One of the trickier parts of jib crane bases is getting the bolts straight up and down in the correct pattern and keeping them there when you place the concrete. By using a single plywood form to anchor the bottom of the bolts together and then using the same pattern at the top to hold them while you pour you will keep everything where it belongs. Smaller bases usually only have 1 bolt at each of the 6 stations and you can get away with wet setting them as you pour but there really was no way to do that here with the double mat and imbedded plate ties for the double bolts so this is how I did it.

      This is great, I looked up the Montgomery ward building in Baltimore and it's nearly twice the size of the Portland one at 1.3 million sqft that Mr Colby added information about in an earlier comment. Best comment section ever!

      Awesome, Thanks! That forlift carriage gets even better. They rotate 360 non stop either direction and the forks will spread to almost twice the carriage width. So handy.

      Exactly right on both. I had hoped for some smush out but it went off too much to get all the way there. I mixed up some fresh and threw it in there, just didn't film it.

      Right at the start of March Ben, it was closer to hwy30 than Vaughn. The snow was from my place on a special snow on jake only storm that left 2' of snow on my place and about 1/4 mile circle around it. There was nothing in PDX or even just down the hill from me.

    Aluminium foil ..... huh, always used black tape, foil looks much easier. Tell you what though, I used zinc rich primer on all steel that protruded to daylight and after 40 years still mint, even runup edges on truck entrances and column impact plates great stuff if can lift the can off the ground.

    • @ShredPile
      @ShredPile  28 днів тому +1

      Good catch, probably my number one oversight is not enough paint. Yeah the foil gets in the threads real well and if it still gets mud on it it wire wheels right off.
