    Look at notes, 171k was gross, they were saying 80k for the beam on its own

    Btw booley, Wasnt saying you were wrong, just that thats a hefty beam at 80k on its own, interesting they only needed 10 foot wide and 90k on the trailer and truck to transport it

    The carrier hired an engineering firm to design the saddles at each end of the arch that support it.
    Here’s a pic from inside the fab shop of the whole arch being fit up. AE762EE7-9F9E-439C-8BA5-4452CBC67194.jpeg

    Where was that fabricator at that you used to work for? You said they closed up right? Must have been a interesting place to be.

    They’re still going strong and located directly in front of the casino in Schenectady. It was a very interesting place to work, some of the stuff they make amazes me. I just hauled a load out of there last week (for the body shop guys) and they offered me my job back but I like being a free agent…

    Had this 47k lbs load of scissor lifts. I regret booking this. Was 85 degrees chaining these up, and just delivered at my first of 4 stops in 26 degree weather of ice and snow. Will say I’m super pleased with the decision to go with XDN2 Instead if the M713 tires.
