On the HVAC side.....I'd say about 60-70% of it is commercial-ish. A large part of this job is just spiral duct....and your usual TDC/ S & Drive duct. The steamfitters and plumbers have a lot of industrial work in the building.
I have never seen this much aluminum spiral in my life. I didn't realize how much of it I had to order. It's probably close to 2,000'......plus hundreds of aluminum fittings.
We have a ton of 10ga stainless oxidizer duct to run on the roof too.
Lots of neat stuff on this job.___________________________

If so ,why?
Just curious because I`ve never seen that done before.I love overtime I just hate working for it.

Yup....carbon welded steel. Needed to be carbon because of the possibility of extremely hot water and other liquids (chemicals) melting a PVC drain. Welded because it limits the possibility of a future leak. Hot water+ leaky fitting+ people under= ouch. All the floor drains in the production areas are welded carbon steel.
I never knew our plumbers could weld
.
You should see all of the tig welded stainless drains that are under the ground. I was I had pictures of that.
Edit:
I forgot to add that some of the floor drains are also welded carbon steel because they are drained into a separate tank in the event that a drum of chemicals was accidentally spilledLast edited by Lash; 01-23-2009 at 04:39 PM.
