all right everybody make sure you sign the sign-in sheet
gather around hope everybody had a good weekend
and enjoyed spring and summertime its now winter again
when it comes to cable rails or wooden
guardrails they're all put there for a reason
either contractor such a Ceco either they're gonna put it up for something
that's coming up that they've got to close that out and then pour that back
in concrete whatever the case may be nobody's allowed without authorization
to take down somebody else's guardrails or cable rails they're there for
perimeter protection or fall protection so please be aware of that last when you
got talked to Mike with Ceco and we're talking about our $25.00 weekly
safety incentive deal he nominated Roderick Williams

Dear Lord thank you for today thank you for every man that is here
Dear God, I ask you be in every heart of every man here
you know their pains
protect us Lord

In these things we ask in Jesus name

Amen
police stations we invited 19 we've made the mayor some city officials the police
department the fire department and we put out 80 flyers in the neighborhood
and then we're gonna put out some more flyers my team's coming back on Monday
to put another 80 flyres back out saying don't forget so then we have some
music outside we're gonna have pizza
we're gonna give away some raffle gift cards
and hopefully the whole purpose of it is to engage the community you let them
know what's going on here because as we build this beast there's
gonna be a lot more parking issues there may be some trash issues there may be
some noise issues but if they have our business cards we can direct all the
complaints to Jimmy
so I am the guy in charge of it all
so me and my team and
partnership with Harbert
have a awesome opportunity to build this unique
high-rise building in Birmingham Alabama
I think the personality between Harbert
and cortland partners is exceptional you know we just got lucky you know
because we both work so diligently on open communication and being transparent
and my problem is their problem and their problem is our problem
we have one ultimate goal and
we have to work together
hopefully we'll have a good turnout
if not, we tried
let me tell you about a few of the guys that I feel like
have a lot of promise
there's Alex. Alex was sent to me as a carpenter
with the potential to turn him into an assistant superintendent
I've got him on
what I call the front line that's the front line where we're getting ready to
pour the next slab it's always the front line
we've got one more embed right here to put in he's already got that one on
this is for our stairs for the risers to weld their beams on there
for the stairs and we got one right here that it's in the metal so we can't
really nail that onto the plywood like we'd like to so we got this fiberglass
rebar that's going to go in there and soon as our Rodbuster moves out the
way we'll we'll get that put in that'll be our last one they can close this wall
we can pour it this afternoon
Elton is considered a full-time employee but he
is still in school and but what he wants to do is stay in this industry and he
wants to be a superintendent run work
ultimately
we kinda got a tie
generally where it goes or else you got up pull all this rebar part and stick it
in there and then nail it off so we got it tied generally where it goes now
we've got a nail it off
or we can't nail this one because there's aluminum behind it
so we get, where's that rebar? here it is
so we get this stuff it's fiberglass rebar and we'll stick it against that
plate so when their wall comes on it'll push our embed back to where it needs to go
waitin on a rodbuster
let's go shorty
gotta put that embed in there
we're gonna get started
all right give me yalls attention
falls have been deadly to construction workers for quite a long time
back in 2016
nine hundred ninety one construction workers lost their lives
on the job
out of those 370 were from Falls
that comes up to 37%
that's an awful high number
my name's Jerry I'm with a company called PureSafety we're the home of Guardian
and Web Devices fall protection we're a manufacturer right out of Houston Texas
rule of thumb that wants to hold up five thousand pounds lot of force put on the
body
when you're using a self-retracting device you want to pull out the cable
all the way
because it's a serious business
people wearing fall protection
today's our big opening that we've been waiting for for a couple weeks now
and we had thought a while back that we needed to engage the neighbors and what a
better way to you know have them over meet them have some giveaways Pizza some
drawings you know we didn't know if he was gonna show or not I mean
we had hoped that the neighbors were going to be interested in what we're doing here
and fortunately enough they were
we had a great turnout the weather turned out awesome
the news stations were here today
we have a huge fire department still here
so the turnout was great we had some neighbors that had
been wondering what this was going to be some thought it would be a hotel
but it was just really nice the neighborhood we had a good turnout they
wanted to know what was going up how tall the building was going to be
when it's gonna open
so it was a good time
very very pleased with it
