Thanks for this great video. It must have taken a lot of patience to hover in place for so long! The build process is fascinating. They must want a balanced load on the support column as quickly as possible, hence working both ends together.
Excellent work, darling. A++. And despite most of it being in fast motion it's still one of your lengthier vids. Towards the end we see that both lumps are still firmly in Dominique's clutches awaiting the internal cables to be run and then tensioned, which is another of the 'dark arts' we're not privy to. Each pair of segments must have its own tensioning cables and so by the time they've reached mid-arch on either side of a pier there must be multiple cables running the length of that particular section. Is that how you understand it? Keep 'em coming.
muchas gracias, its another mistery of the pier, on Sunday its 97.7% shut down or with very little activity, will try and investigate, have seen a sort of keyway, oblong in shape on the side of the segments?? will take a peek guv'nor .

You get a good view of the white boiler suit boys with the glue-on in progress, we thank, Bostik Bob, Bluetack Ben, Loctite Larry and Gorilla George.... what a team....
It arrived in over 90 shipping containers to the UK, so it might go back that way, or Peter the Rock and others were looking for a long museum for it....
thank you.. up a bit in she goes lovely😅, while there hanging about on time and a half £££ the segments move around quite a bit, didn't notice that last time,
they use a 3rd leg this takes the weight of the other leg so it can be moved, when they release the clamps on the top and bottom, the bottom feet are screwed up and off the viaduct so its floating, they unwind this by hand, have seen one of the orange dudes walking round and around screwing it up, they have a long bar attached and use that as a leaver... the leg moves a long the runners to the next pier, i should be able to film this next time, it was raining last time but did watch how its moved, this is a very basic explanation of how it works i'm sure someone can add to this..also i'm still not sure how the body? moves, i guess when the legs are in there new position they use the cables to pull it along????? breaking news check this link from the amazing mr stephen ruclips.net/video/VUDYFk9Q4xQ/видео.html
Awesome segments and music ! This is _so_ good!! Tight. Thank you *SIMONC* .
NO PROBLEM AT YOUR SERVICE. SIR.

Oh, yeah. They are literally slapping on glue as the section is lowered into place. Good spot, Stephen 👍
That machine is incredible. I'm curious as to how it will be disassembled when this viaduct is completed.

@@StephenWalker42 Fascinating!

Does anyone know how they move the front supporting leg(?) on to the next pier?
