McGarvey Industrial Park Demolition, Baltimore

3 жыл бұрынwww.pedestrians...
Speakers celebrate plans to redevelop a derelict industrial park. A local community leader makes a symbolic first blow with the excavator. Then the demolition begins.
Prior to 1975, the building was a meat packing plant. A 1953 Sanborn Insurance map shows it as "Albert F. Goetze Inc Pork Packers & Sausage Factory"
www.loc.gov/re...
Fires damaged the north end of the building in 2006 and 2017, and it has been vacant in recent years.
Produced by John Z Wetmore, producer of "Perils For Pedestrians".

Dude very painful, Is it just me or on a structure like this you skin the building first so you can see what you are doing then you go to work and properly seperate the material I mean come on is it me or is he just making a mess. Demolition is not about being messy, there is a certain finesse and art if your gonna be a true operator

Totally the wrong tool to tackle thick concrete beams. It's fine to strip brickwork and light steel, but bashing away at thick concrete is very damaging to the machine. I would have told him to stop immediately. He should be stripping what he can, and then bring in a hydraulic crusher or pick to finish it off. The operator should know all that.

Wow. The community leader and the actual operator must be related. It took them 5 minutes in the beginning of the video to make a new doorway at the top of the building. The bucket of the excavator hitting the outside of the building at times looked like a cat head butting it's human. I love watching your vids, but this demo was painful to watch.

Right especially since new warehouse buildings collapse when it's windy outside like the Amazon warehouse in the Seagirt marine terminal area of Baltimore and killed some people. They definitely don't make them like they used to. I bet that machine could be dropped off on the roof and the building wouldn't collapse but do that on the Amazon warehouse I guarantee it will collapse.

Back then those buildings were engineered to withstand time and upgrades, newer buildings are designed to meet bare minimum standards so they cost less to build and maintain. My husband has an engineering degree and he talks about this all the time.
