Yesterday I spent about 12hrs revising a grading plan due to site conditions being considerably different than anticipated/designed around. Had to have the revision complete for a meeting with the client & contractor today.

After discussing it today. I'll be revising it again & it'll change again as more area is uncovered.


FWIW, I'm the project mgr for the consulting engineering firm that did the design (me also) & is doing the cqa (what I'm managing now) on this project. This project is a landfill cap/closure.

I wish the gensets I run into were always that pretty lol. The big work horses never stay nice when they're always on rent

This is true Lol I prepped this 1750KW 3516 CAT Rental for painting a couple weeks ago. It was sitting around cz it was too ugly to rent out...now its sitting again cz it got put on the back burner. Spent a whole day on a precarious step ladder with a hot pressure washer peeling the old yellow paint off with a turbo nozzle. That was a very fun, dry job!:mad: Oh well the rose comes with a few thorns. Mounted this Tier 4 QSL-9 on its trailer today. Thankfully I didn't have to do the wiring:thumb:

[/QUOTE]They are nice units! Those two QSB-7 units I had pictured earlier are for Hotfoil, not sure if any of you pipeline people recognize that name or not...I believe they are a company that specializes in stress relieving welds on the pipelines. I know some of our units have gone to North Dakota, because we had two units that overspend and creamed the windings. The crankcase vent froze shut and pushed oil out the turbo seals into the intake. Originally they were going to Texas so that was the last thing on our minds when we designed them Lol.

This is cool that it is being seen nationwide. The space program, I think is something that made this nation strong and brought it together. I had a high school friend whose dad worked at Hughes. I got to see a lot of VIP shuttle landings at Edwards Air force base. If you have never seen the shuttle launch or land, TV does nothing for it.
