A few years ago a customer swung by my place and wanted to test out some equipment from China. I said sure so he ordered it and it arrived within 5 days. In good times that would have been a 8 week delivery from any other global supplier for process equipment. The performance was also on par or better. Wake up people.

Fucking chinks are some tenacious mofos I know but, governments everywhere are good at throwing massive money with no expense spared, without hesitation to cover their own fuck ups. I sense something is amiss here and they are looking at possible damage control in the future if something slips out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The amount of enviroment damage on a project of that magnitude requires years upon years of court battles and remediation. That would be a decade plus from conception to completion in the US Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We be better off just letting the whole thing run it’s course and kill off 20% or so. Construction would start 2-3 years after its passed....and nobody would know why....other than the unions and DC politicians of course.

Frostynuts Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Likes like a bunch of pods or shipping containers all bolted together. I would guess they,ve got a gazillion shipping containers available, all empty waiting to ship stuff around the world, so they are probably just retrofitting those. They certainly can get stuff done in a hurry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like they have a bunch of pre-fab units they can just slap together. If that is a standard type of construction they use then it makes it alot more available and easier but the underground utilites is a job in itself. Then usually the concrete has to cure for at least 30 days. That is an impressive undertaking any way you want to look at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’d probably be my guess. The logistics for this....even with unlimited resources to throw at it would take some time to plan out so, it was probably built into the fail-safes. Of course, we don’t know how long this virus has actually been kicking either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Around here that is a union job, its not even an issue. There are no non-union outfits around here capable and with the man power to do that. The unions here provide the best trained and most qualified tradesmen around. Not to mention ALL of the largest general contractors are union. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
