追加: 2026-05-21

[00:00:09]Hello, hello, hello.

[00:00:17]Hello, hello, hello. Let's see who joins this one.

[00:00:37]We can now see part of the uh the finished concrete um park up that they're taking the the mold down the the the formwork for.

[00:00:49]They're taking that down.

[00:00:53]And obviously they're going to move on to the next one.

[00:01:00]So, it's good to see they're making progress on this. I think they need to finish this one ASAP um as the tram lines are actually going to come in in between this one and the one where that formwork is. So, I think they need to get this done ASAP to clear the site.

[00:01:18]Obviously uh it's going to be a couple of months until the tram catches up with this area just yet, but the tram is making big pro- progress, so uh I think they won't want to hold it up.

[00:01:30]We can see they're moving that section of concrete mold off of the crane.

[00:01:43]Uh off of the park up, sorry.

[00:01:55]And he's going to put it down on the ground.

[00:02:01]Where is he going to put that?

[00:02:15]Let's see where he puts this bit of concrete mold. There's a lot of workers around him.

[00:02:27]Please do like and subscribe if you feel inclined to do so.

[00:02:32]It's much appreciated.

[00:02:36]Trying to get to 2,000 subscribers before the end of June. That's my current aim.

[00:02:49]Hey Ollie, no worries. Yeah, I I appreciate all the support, don't I?

[00:02:54]Makes it possible.

[00:02:56]Hello Archie O'Donnell.

[00:02:58]Thank you very much for tuning in. So, they've just taken that down.

[00:03:02]Um now we can see the exposed power cap.

[00:03:07]Um we'll see it better in the video a little bit later.

[00:03:13]Uh but they have taken that down now.

[00:03:16]And there's there's still the concrete cast around the outside, but they'll take that down by the rest of by the end of today.

[00:03:33]One second, everyone. I'll be back in a minute. There's a lot of people coming up near me, so I'm just going to be quiet for a second.

[00:03:52]That's working again. Just tell me when.

[00:04:09]>> Hello I meet you Dimitriou.

[00:04:12]Thank you very much for saying hello.

[00:04:16]You can see the big tower crane is doing a multitude of jobs at the moment.

[00:04:22]Um.

[00:04:24]It's helping with the concrete pours on the water attenuation tank on the walls.

[00:04:29]And then it's also. Um.

[00:04:32]Lifting these down. That's a big batch of.

[00:04:35]Steel rebar and I'm guessing that is putting that.

[00:04:40]Uh onto that blinding layer.

[00:04:42]Um that we saw before.

[00:04:46]So it's turning it down there.

[00:05:01]And onto the side.

[00:05:04]They're going to obviously drop that down.

[00:05:09]What's this over here? This blue crane is getting ready to lift up the next section.

[00:05:14]Of that concrete molds.

[00:05:16]Looks like they're just hooking it up now.

[00:05:21]And in a second that will be lifted off.

[00:05:25]I'll let you know when that's ready to go.

[00:05:33]Birmingham City Stadium in the back.

[00:07:46]>> So you can see they're they're taking the next section of that concrete mold off.

[00:08:00]Now if we go back over here, they've taken most of it down.

[00:08:26]So I think that is his main job today is going to be lifting the concrete molds up and down.

[00:08:32]Now I'm back on my own, I can uh talk a little bit more. There's a lot of people walking about.

[00:08:47]See that's how our crane getting lifted up again.

[00:08:50]Where is it going to go?

[00:08:52]We don't know.

[00:08:55]There's a lot of people working on top of this uh decking section here.

[00:08:59]I don't know what they're doing.

[00:09:01]I see tying rebar, but what they're actually doing.

[00:09:16]What's them working in this full section area because eventually they want to put these four new beams if it loads.

[00:09:26]It's getting a bit blurry now.

[00:09:28]They want to put those four piers over there.

[00:09:32]Oh, it doesn't like that angle.

[00:09:34]Uh and And they want to hang them across the site.

[00:09:42]Across these sections here.

[00:10:02]See that concrete pump at work.

[00:11:02]It's now coming back over.

[00:11:05]And it's going to take off another section of that concrete cast.

[00:11:15]And this tower crane is delivering a lot more material down here.

[00:11:21]That's the big heavy one.

[00:11:23]And then it's picking up and putting it down.

[00:11:26]It's obviously putting it down now.

[00:11:28]Camera's going a bit blurry.

[00:12:02]>> Welcome, welcome, welcome. Please like and subscribe if you haven't. Got my latest video as well, and you can join a Discord full of a lot of people that know what's going on a lot more than me.

[00:12:15]It is a good place to be.

[00:12:29]See them working on this rebar here.

[00:12:33]I've just come down in that cherry picker, actually.

[00:12:37]But this tower crane is delivering a lot of stuff down here. I appreciate the picture isn't the best, but gives us some good idea of what's going on.

[00:13:01]Thanks, dear Apollo.

[00:13:02]Much appreciated.

[00:13:06]I'll have a video I'll have a video out probably in about an hour, maybe just over an hour of the drone footage.

[00:13:15]And uh yeah.

[00:13:19]Quite a lot of changes over the site.

[00:13:23]So.

[00:13:27]Yeah, especially down by the tram track.

[00:13:29]That's why they're focusing on this area, if you missed that earlier. I think they're focusing on this area, getting that all power capped over and the columns done.

[00:13:37]So that it looks like this side.

[00:13:39]So that when the tram track wants to come through here, uh somewhere around here, possibly there.

[00:13:46]It's um still done. Looking at the concrete pump, someone asked me to go over here.

[00:13:53]I'm going to try and lift it up see if you can see any more.

[00:14:10]Hi Andrew.

[00:14:12]Hope you're enjoying it.

[00:14:14]Oh yeah, hi mate.

[00:14:15]Ha, I see you.

[00:14:39]Cheers Andrew for that, that was funny.

[00:14:41]Good to see you.

[00:15:22]Great, well thanks everyone for watching. Um I'll have a video out a little bit later with better sort of footage, obviously, cuz it's over the site.

[00:15:31]Um We can see final thing the tower crane is picking up another bit of blue um sort of like it looks like a stairs.

[00:15:43]Um I'm just going to deliver it over here.

[00:15:47]So, [snorts] uh thanks all very much for watching.

[00:15:50]Please tune in later. Like and subscribe. And uh yeah, I'll see you in a bit.
