How It's Made: 100-Ton Steel Beams for the $25 Billion Hudson Yards Project!

Описание: Twenty-five billion dollars, three hundred concrete columns, and hundred-ton steel beams holding an entire neighborhood above thirty active rail lines with hundreds of trains passing through every single day! We're taking you inside the specialized plants where these massive steel trusses are manufactured—each weighing as much as twenty elephants—and showing you how engineers built Hudson Yards, the most expensive private development in US history, suspended over a working railroad depot in the heart of Manhattan. You'll see liquid iron boiling at over 2,900°F, plasma cutters slicing through eight-inch steel plates, welders creating seams with forty layers of metal, and discover why the trees in this "floating city" live in a giant refrigerator with smart soil and cooling tubes to prevent their roots from cooking from the heat of diesel locomotives below.
