Hurghada is a city in the Red Sea well known for providing access to many uninhabited offshore reefs and islands. One of their specialities is yacht construction; and they are doing quite a good job :) The manufacturing process is shown inside the post.  You definitely need to see this work. This should have been a power station fundament. Good luck with that. I wouldn’t like them to build my future house   Never saw how a boat is being built. In this post, you can get aquatinted with the building process.  It seems that this bear liked playing on a construction site, except that the work couldn’t proceed because of him )) You bet, try to chase such a beast away ;)  This is the world's first full-sized house built from Lego. And as its creator promised, the house won’t be empty, he will move there and will live in the house for some time.  A funny story happened in China. Residents of one village were against a construction in a nearby canyon. When construction machinery arrived there, one of the villagers left his car at the top of the canyon to protest. That did not stop the construction team. Guys razed everything to the ground, except the place where the villager left his car and now he’s thinking how to get it out from there.  Sometimes such things happen accidentally, but in most cases because of human stupidity. What you’ll see inside the post is beyond the notion of ‘normal’ but from the other hand, it can be extremely funny ;)  The incident occurred in the United States. One worker who worked on an excavator got fired on Friday. Sunday morning on this construction site, his chief could see such picture. They really pissed him off   Workers dug a foundation pit for a new building, but the ground of the building just next to it has shifted forming numerous cracks in the asphalt and the walls of the building. First, they cemented the cracks in the asphalt around the building but it did not help, then they put powerful metal beams to support the building. I wonder if it will really help...  Leonid Moulyarchik who lives in the small Russian town Lebedyan, decided to build the subway for local residents. Work has been already underway since 1984 and he built everything by himself. On average, a day is required to dig one meter and 3 days to cement it. The idea is that there will be a cart carrying 3-4 people. I hope that his dream will come true one day. Look at photos of a very hard work inside the post.  The day before yesterday morning, the Morakot typhoon hit Taiwan, one of the most powerful typhoons ever to hit Asia. On the photos, you will see a six-story hotel that collapsed into a river because of the typhoon. People were not injured as they were evacuated from the hotel even before the typhoon started.  I suggest you make a small but fascinating photo tour on a construction site of a Moscow subway branch.  A giant ‘monument’ has been erected in Bobruisk, Belarus and it seems that it’s a beaver. There are no other details given so I can’t tell why it’s been built or other stuff. So, just take a look at this giant construction after the jump to see how big it is.  The Chinese usually build everything very quickly. The truth is quickly doesn’t mean with quality, you probably remember the post about an apartment building that collapsed. Well, here you’ll see how one of the Chinese intersections changed in just 5 month.  The planning of a building is a very serious thing, everything must be done to make it comfortable and pleasant to live. And those who have a beautiful view from their balcony are very lucky, because we can not say the same about the residents of this apartment building.  A woman lost control over her VW Passat, while she was passing near by a construction site. I do not know how she managed to do that, but one thing is clear, it will be extremely difficult for her to explain with his insurance company.  The construction of the Colorado River Bridge over Hoover Dam continues and the opening is planned in 2010. It is a real mega construction, the total length of the bridge will be 579 meters and the height will be 256 meters above the Colorado River. The bridge will give a magnificent view on the dam and will be open not only for motorists but for pedestrians too.  A woman turned over in her boat in the swirling water at the base of a dam. She couldn’t get out and rescue boats couldn’t come near enough to pull her out. Who do you think came into her rescue?... An ordinary guy, a construction worker saw her and without thinking he and his crew made a rescue operation involving a crane. The worker hung on the chains that were attached to the crane and then he was lowered to the water by the crane and could grab the woman’s hand and pulled her out. Hats off to the real hero!!!  Edit: It's in Indonesia. Judging by the photos, it is one of the most dangerous professions in the world  Look for yourself.  Here’s how they do to build big parts of bridges. What did really astonish me is the Monster Truck that transports it all!  China is known to all for its love of counterfeiting and coping of various things. This time they decided to build their own sphinx, however the project is only under construction. It would be interesting to look at it after it’s finished ...  The second part of the photographs is the most interesting. It shows the step by step construction.  |
