- A railroad bridge has to be laid over a four-lane federal highway near Flensburg. It is made of steel, 46 meters long, eight meters wide, over three meters high and weighs 267 tons. Two mobile cranes are needed for this. They weigh over 100 tons and can lift up to 1,000 tons. These extreme weightlifters first have to be assembled themselves, and their parts transported to construction sites.This report shows how they are assembled and used.

Recap by Tammy AI
I appreciate the operator of the multi-millions crane with next gen technology… how he waves NOO! to the guy outside. Sweet irony of human superiority. That crane operator’s Mum raised her a decent boy. 👍
Well done. It's unfortunate that the US channels like History, TLC, Discovery used to do things like this, but now they are just stupid.
No kidding! Remember the History Channel in the mid-90s? Couldn't get enough.
Discovery channel then was for smart people, now it is for stupid people who want to feel smart
@@wolo Well stated!
Indeed!
That's capitalism for you.
They saw that there was more money in schlock so they went hard and fast for it and never looked back.
When it comes to machines Germany is number one in the world. Made is Germany is original, reliable, durable and long lasting . I love you Germany from Uganda 🤝🤝😀😀. I love the WELT team please thanks for the informative and educational documentaries. We at least feel Germany at a distance.
Yea they got that left from Hitler, he was crazy about making all shit bigger then everyone else
Allso in Japan
I've been operating for 45 years ( just retired) and the cranes these days are very nice and complicated and comfortable but I don't know what it is, but I do miss the older big cranes. Just something about them. Awesome in their simplicity.
@@darkmoon7406 true , that one is another Asian giant on another level.
Thanks from Hamburg North Germany
My all time favourite documentary channel,, always the best
Me that is why I love Germany with all my heart. Most intelligent, innovative, careful, responsible and well disciplined in designing and manufacturing the best. Germany ooooyeee

..em..
Great video. No switching back and forth to different sites with cliff hanger tags each time. I wish the US versions were handled this way.
jack,
In The Valley of The Sun, Arizona USA
A big lift.!
We'll done everybody.
And a hat tip to the Structural engineers..!.. 🇭🇲
utterly fascinating. Don't think I would sleep too well knowing I would have to do that the next day.
Some crane handling things that weren't mentioned, a crane operator can plumb himself up by watching which way the hook goes as tension is put on and following it, then slacking, and tensioning until the hook doesn't move horizontally. When picking up and setting down heavy objects, the crane computer must be watched as well, as weight is gained the boom will deflect outwards, and if you don't boom up, the load will swing away from the crane, likewise while setting down.
And with an uncooperative long load, get the tag line, stand in one place and let the crane maneuver it to where the other end can be grabbed, then send it
Yes as an operator here in the states they don’t say in video but also as the boom is tilted forward meaning away from the operator.This cause extensive tip weight meaning the down ward force exerted on the boom and cable combination can cause a massive over load hence cause the crane to fail.That is why the extensive extending of the boom and having the proper length of the in the overalll crane length is necessary to prevent to forward and shocking the crane in the tip weight.this video was excellent and very informative and yes the over view of the extensive counter weights is necessary also too control the fine tune of a balancing act and the tip weight.Once against THANKYOU FOR YOUR GREAT VIDEO
the ltm 1759 is listed to a 800 ton crane. great report with lots of details of the action.
Very interesting and nicely done. Thanks for producing and sharing this video.
Watch your mouth, stop with your vulgar language, and show some respect.
😆
Knowing DB, the "temporary" train bridge will be "temporary" until it needs to be replaced with another "temporary" bridge.
Theres nothing as permanent as a temporary solution.
So they know the bridge needs changing. And yet put in an expensive "temporary bridge". I think they may not have wanted to have the plans drawn up with the heading "Final Solution" written on them ( unlike our colleagues in a German subsidiary who would regularly talk about "the final solution" to project issues on conference calls. We all just looked at our feet .... )
Good work welt, I like the narrator voice too
A vert good video, "Giants at work" lovely machines.
I love the American flag on the crane driver's hat
Wonderful, well done chaps.
I myself work at a Prefab concrete factory. And the steel net is made somewhere else. Under Germany. And really always, there are rods in the way. If you want to apply provisions. Because on the drawing it fits with the rods. But there is always a wide anchor point, no matter what has to go through first. And that is never taken into account. Greetings from Spakenburg, the Netherlands.
Love the mobile Crain operator with old glory on his hat. 👍🏻🇺🇸
There's nothing quite as gratifying as big rigging and having a job well done along with continuous safety practices. I personally operated cranes for the past twenty six years and absolutely miss it to the max.
Great videos guys, love them. Ive just started back in the industry in Australia after being out of it for over 20yrs, not much improvement in that time that I can see……. I love the music in your videos! Keep up the good work I always look forward to the new content, cheers!
yeah the music is spot on, make one think of Hercules lifting an impossible weight...EPICNESS lol!!
My guy Bent is the Goat of casual confidence.
Wow
Coming on very well
Is there any update if the underside of the roof it getting any work done yet?
Looking through the windows and it does look like internal work is going on
Oh , anyone know if the electrical side is gonna be live anytime soon
Last I saw it looked months away on the local boards but there small fry if the m m sun boards are ready to go
I’m glad the FA or who ever released the audio of the VAR.
And I’m also very impressed with the manager and club in there response
That was class from the manager interview on MOTD to the response from the fans.
Yes a massive F up but amazing how you all have taken it
And that’s from a Man Utd fan
Great as Always
So what was the actual weight of the old bridge estimated at 67T ?
Best Ducumentry film..🖐
20:40 seems like even Germany can't escape these entitled people.. 😔
In Australia we have entitled people commonly parking in disabled zones & selfish people no longer waiting at red lights.
Same in the uk
Liebherr has the most sophisticated cranes in the world. Used everywhere in the world when challenging tasks have to resolved like collapsed twin towers etc ..
I really like these machines, I also make a lot of videos about them on my channel
Impressed by such a heavy weight cranes. Its my craz.
Perfect job👏👏👏
interesting they also use a lot of Caterpillar equipments ;)
A one plain simple fact : Germans are masters of Engineering!
I spent the full wknd watching Sarens cranes,lift concrete bridge sections being lifted into place, on the A465 dualling project in S Wales u,k amazing project.
I've delivered some of the precast to this job from Ireland...
@@andrewmac5056 lots of your trucks in Merthyr today on a470 ,I waved to the blonde lady , with rayliable transport in the laybye earlier, great work guys
What a really interesting and informative video 👍👏👏
I wish you would Just post the video when it's ready to be uploaded, premiers are just a pain in the ar$e.
I know some people hate it but listing it as a premier dramatically increase engagement and total views.
Nice videos... keep continue.. congratulations the team
Stay safe and we'll see you next time.
Sounds like the @Kurzgesagt narrator did some voiceover work on this!
Amazing, mind blowing machine...
So in other words the LTM750 is the world's longest and heaviest road worthy RC vehicle
My all time favourite 🇰🇪
Germany may be number 1 in engineering, but it's really sad that they didn't add anything about the new bridge which will be installed at a later date!
Welt has the best docs, Then there’s FD. But need more.
If the access to the site is supposed to be blocked, and cars still get in, not once but several times, someone did not do their job properly. Cannot blame the car drivers or chances.
wäre super wenn es dir Dokumentation auch auf deutsch geben würde
Meine Frage wäre kann man die Doku auch auf deutsch sehen ?
Kommt auch mir komisch vor, reden ja alle deutsch und sollte von daher einfacher sein das ganze ohne diese dämliche Übersetzung zu veröffentlichen...
@@OmmerSyssel Du musst in der Welt mediathek schauen, nicht auf den Titel sondern aufs Bild. Und wegen den Rechten is das in Deutschland irgendwie so dass die die Dokus nur 3 Monate in der Mediathek lassen und du die alten folgen dann nicht mehr schauen kannst bis in paar monaten, da werden die wieder freigeschaltet. Das was du auf UA-cam von denen siehst sind vllt. 8% der Dokus die in der Mediathek sind.
Noticed the crane driver has an American flag on the side of his hat!🇺🇸🇺🇸
Always amaize the Germany engineering
Awesome
Both operators are good smokers lol
I wonder what the cost is for this job.
Japan and Germany were defeated during WW2 But No one can defeat their HIGH TECH!
Good job
Brilliant day out 😊
Don’t ya love ol’ glory on Bernt’s ball cap!
This is cool .as a young man I work on bridge crews.but nothing like this.
now I'm impressed
Lol that briefing though.
Nice view
Impressive, very impressive.
One thing that did surprise me, using gas to cut the old iron railway bridge whilst the gas bottles were laid down on thier sides and that includes what looks like acetylene. Not good or safe practice.
Yes it is shock to lift up Bridge
That block was laced NOT reved.
Reved is when the axis of shives are hanging 90° from each other
Woow the Big Crane
Interesting !
strange how one of the crane outriggers is allowed on that apparently unconsolidated clay apron, would have thought the whole crane footprint area needs to be concreted
Narrator says wind caused it to turn.....worker says it arrived the wrong way around...🤷
Realy I like this video
Wow, they only last 20 years and the equipment needed to replace them really doesn't seem worth the cost!
A German operator
using USA base ball cap
Stran jacks can lift more than any crane..
But can only lift.
It can tram Laterally if rigged on hydro gantrys.
Smoking a cig while lifting a bridge 😆
Germany.
Always advisable.
It's his personal workplace..
I enjoy your videos a lot, however the continual use of the term "so called" multiple times in every single video is just plain annoying, there's no need for it so please just stop using it.
Good vedio
USA USA USA Let’s Go brandon 🍦🍦🍦
FDT
Germany has some strict road laws. In NL that 205ton ballast would take 3 trucks to get it there. Also the outrigers could stay on the crain, same with the hook. The german roads are soft and badly meantained.
@lars meijilijnk 👈🤡
@@speedingatheist who is that? Cant you even spell a name right🤣🤣 how old are you? 10?
Germany engineering is above
Ok documentary, got a bit fed up with the overly dramatic soundtrack and " up a bit"...."means go up"! Really? Never would have figured that out, thanks narrator.
I like the guy, he wears an American flag on his hat, more patriotic than most Americans ha.
the ones that put that bridge up 100 years ago with no big crane would be shaking their heads bet it tuck longer to get the crane on site and put it up then it tuck to build the bridge in the 1st place
And you wonder why civil engineering works cost so much. "I'd like a crane please" .. "OK. It will need several trucks with special platforms. And another crane. And then hours and hours and many people just to get it together". And after all the work on the railway bridge, it's only temporary. That is a bit of a nonsense, no ?
And how would you have replaced the bridge? Helicopter?
it pays well. Looks safe. Bridge work is so detailed and complicated you can almost count on having a job for a while.
@@Noneofyourbiz123 Don't leap to negativity. My comment stands : if you wonder why things are so expensive in civil engineering, re-read what I wrote
@@stanthology I agree. And then there is the UK civil engineering. Reading the Guardian newspaper (you'll find the article online ), the spend hundreds of thousands of GBP infilling disused railway bridges in the UK. Nobody tells the body responsible for the bridges. They put thousands of tonnes of concrete under the railway span. And in many cases, the disused track bed was being used as cycleways for recreation. Nothing was put in place to facilitate joining up the pathway in some other way.

Impossible to drive the pins by hand???? When i worked for Patterson UTI drilling we would climb the derrick while it was sideways with sledgehammers and drive pins larger than the ones in this video don't get me wrong great video thank you I appreciate the laugh
Congratulations
Maybe you confused something here: it is not about wheight or size. It is about fitting tolerances. A pin the size of a pen could be too hard to be driven in by hand, if tolerances are small enough
Great work however the lady at the job site wearing leggings is not the appropriate attire for a construction site. Germany the coolest equipment and provides some of the best training.
I didn't notice. Thanks for the tip. I'm sure all the men noticed.
box ticking
Guys wearing shorts ok with you?
LR11000 job: shocked little about safety on the working site.. Some of personnel don’t have full PPE; operator is filming right under the suspended load; the guy disconnecting the rigging is connected to the hoist point in horizontal to a rope near sharp metal edges (WTF! crazy violation), instead of using the Yo-Yo to the crane hook. I hope the ground bearing a capacity for the crane is good enough to stand on 1 layer of azobe mats.. crane reaches the limit, there is no engineering and lifting plan for such job? “Only when the load is suspended, crane operator knows the weight”, ridiculous in heavy lifting preparations :)
Thumbs DOWN to the project manager, but good work for the movie itself.
did you not see how safe it was
no body running away
all were happy
yes it could drop
go away down the pub and leave it to those hat know
@@raypitts4880 lol, happy customer joined the chat? :D
#34:10 my new paint…!
Jesustiama👏👏👏👏🌟⭐️👍👍👍
NOTHING wrong with a good 'ol Manitowoc.
Why a temporary bridge? Why dodn't they have the permanent one there so they don't have to bring that crane in a gane?
Might be called "temporary" to avoid the regulations, estimates, detailed design etc of a "permanent" bridge. Might be the intention that it will be the permanent bridge for the foreseeable future.
Put all that weight on a car 💪🤣

Why that stupid music, like they go for a quest to hunt a dragon. It's just a crane.
FASCINATING TO BE SURE ! ======== MATTS'
I wish my boom is same big
Viva Germany
What about the truck driver? Who drives 100mph the wrong way besides a criminal
Quintillion and quintillion dollars business giant crane
