π ITβS CRANE DAY π
Iβm going to live-tweet as we place four pre-fabricated 40 ft shipping container units on our new β¦β© site today
Conversation
The first container, one of the bedroom wings, gets set into place. 21,000 pounds gliding through the air.
Four truck drivers, two crane operators, two house builders, two welders, and one live-tweeter to get this job done.

First container is set
They landed it perfectly on the first try!
If you look closely in this picture you can see the welder connecting the container to the metal plates embedded into the perimeter of the foundation.

Second container placement: significantly more stressful than the first.
This is half of the great room, and required more complicated crane straps since there are interior corners and it needs to connect up to the first container
