Anyone notice the Cybertrucks in the old lot are not all foundation series? the ones on the solar charger do not have the white interior. 3:17 in on the video.
Today quality is very nice! Thank you!
Thanks Brad
0:28. GA, highway side. Bottom right. HDD boring site. Black conduit/pipes from north and south swept upwards to collect in a bundle.
0:43. Southend, west. Top left. Perimeter columns to the left have the precast wall panel brackets welded in place. Raker beam partly required for panel fixing.
0:45. Southend, west. Level 2. Large diameter lengths of pipe.
Road. Bottom right. Suction excavation. About opposite on the highway side is the south most location where the HDD rig was located.
1:19. Southend, south. Apron. Roof drain pipes cored out through the retaining wall. Roof drain unrelated to the subterranean passage.
1:56. Southend, east. Apron. Geometric arrangement of porta-loos.
2:05. Southend. Cooling Platform structure. 3 of what scales to 6 sumps/basins/moats being assembled on top of the structure.
2:12. Large black fabricated pipes being stockpiled.
Southeast Pond. Reshaping, part filling works continue.
2:48. Parking Garage. Top floor. Final concrete placed.
3:26. Parking Garage, north. Entrance/exit lanes marked.
3:47. Stamping, apron. New loading platform. Adding the steel deck.
3:55. Southend, east. Apron. Green pipe. Sanitary Sewer drain, trench at the Lift Station.
Tank Farm. Right. New white riser pipes.
Excavation works inside the Tank Farm in a number of locations. Here and white pipes also at 4:02.
4:50. Southend, west. Level 1. Deep inside. Concrete stormwater drains, a trench shield. Interesting to see if the drain crosses the tunnel alignment.
5:00. Westside. Far west. Residential estate. Saddle Rock Drive. Works on the connection of the blue water main into the City supply.
2 parallel trenches were marked on the road.
6:38. EOL, Parking Lot. Buttoned-up the sanitary sewer lift station works.
8:32. Westside, storage. Bottom right. Some large HVAC units here. Might also be part of the gear for the Cooling Plant.
11:54. Casting, diagonal corner. Apron. Concrete placed over a ductbank. Vault location excavated.
12:06. Casting, east. Apron. Momentous day. The first concrete retaining wall on site is being demolished. They grow up so quick.
4 or more furnace collector hoods and associated components, fittings.
12:22. Casting, east. Apron. Mud base works.
14:12. Cathode west. Left. Plant platform. Support frame for pipework etc being assembled around the white tank.
6:38 Does anyone know where the force main out from the lift station will connect? I thought it would go under the freeway and connect to the main lift station over there but that never happened.
@@DavidJohnson-tv2nn 6:38. Could have run an additional pipe through the larger HDD bored sleeve under the highway. Would be a relatively small pipe for this facility, easily laid without anyone noting it.
@@DessieDoolan I thought they might be doing a separate bore under the freeway, considering it's pressurized sewage. Also, checkout Joe's video 12/20/23 at the 29: 28 timestamp. The bore terminates in the vault. Except for the usual part of the duct-bank (Likely for fiber optic cables) that goes around the vault. All encased in concrete. In any case, I'm glad I'm not the only one who missed something. 😊 And you usually catch important stuff! Any chance that they haven't yet trenched for the discharge force main?
@@DavidJohnson-tv2nn Could be going out via the housing estate. 2 trenches marked on the road.
@@DessieDoolan Good point. Hopefully there will be continued drone coverage over that street.
Thanks you Brad, video fantastic, from Spain
Thanks Brad
Thank you!
The pipe supports for the refrigerant piping on the roof stops next to the tanks at the SE corner (3:59)
Merci👍👍👍
Thanks Brad!
South expansion:
@ 0:26 (Bottom right) HDD bore. Small excavation, but important. About 400 feet to the south is the end of the bore with several spools of orange conduit for fiber optic cables. And on Joe's video yesterday, there were at least 3 orange conduits in the bore.
@ 2:04 Ongoing work on the cooling structure.
River road:
@ 2:13 Looks like they are only going to fill in the southwest end of the pond.
Parking garage:
@ 2:48 Final concrete pour on the top deck.
EOL facility:
Water main:
@ 5:00, 9:23 and 9:35 Trenching through a residential street to connect to the city water supply. Speculating that the other end of the 'loop' may connect at River road. Where there are existing water mains that bring water into the site.
New power supply to the factory:
Views of the work....
@ 11:00
@ 11:07 (Towards the bottom) Where the old duct-bank from the temporary substation was partially demolished and cables can be seen on the ground.
@ 11:11 (Bottom right) Intersection with existing main power duct-banks. New duct-banks will have to cross over/under.
@ 11:15 Duct-banks head towards the point where they will cross Tesla road.
Northside of casting:
@ 11:54 Hydrovac excavation. Looks like a possible vault location.
BESS substation:
@ 14:19 (Bottom) Good close up view of the 345 kV termination insulators. Which was a long careful process for installation.
Parking garage:
@ 3:31 (Lower right, and up ahead) Are those unprotected fire standpipes?
Four months and still no hubcaps on the Cybertruck. They're literally selling a $120k "Foundation Series" product with a missing component lol
Or they ship them with the hubcaps in the cab for installation at the Tesla sales centre.
@@DessieDoolan I've heard they are being redesigned because of an issue where the edges of caps keep rubbing against side of tires. Few realize how much of an aesthetic catastrophe this is for a vehicle that is %80 about looks. Chief designer Franz is probably dying on the inside seeing his Blade Runner inspired masterpiece being delivered to customers like that with exposed ugly plain rims. Franz said it best when talking about cyber hubcaps design: "the moment you put something round on this vehicle (round rims), it's takes it out of its futuristic state". The cyber hubcaps have square edges for a reason and they match the vehicle aesthetic perfectly. Oh and did i mention it takes 20 miles of range off the vehicle when they're not installed

2:30 future road extension, not the one being built but the one we see entering into the forest then turns left all the way to the north east of the cathode plan, not this year but soon.
You can tell they are close to being done. Before they were in the grey shale/rock now there is dirt in the pit. They are within 20' from breaking the surface!!!!!
The red earth is being mixed in with the wet spoil in the pit to make it easier to scoop out and transport.
Tunnel should be under the northbound lanes of the highway by now. A little over halfway to the likely end of tunnel near to the extension perimeter grade beam.
The parking stripes on the top of garage, if you repeat the same on all floors, it will hold about 6500 cars. Fyi, you once said capacity 10,000.
Yes, someone determined that this would be the world's third largest parking structure with about 10,000 spaces, but it looks like that's not close to accurate. It may be that the estimate of spaces based on the square footage was way off; perhaps they're making larger spaces recognizing that trucks are popular in Texas? In any case, I counted 32 spaces down one side and 28 spaces on one side of an aisle, with six aisles painted, so 12 sides (including the ramps). So ((32*2)+(28*12))*2*7 to get 5600. I ignored that some aisles have fewer spaces due to handicap spots, and that the ramps eliminate spaces on the ground floor. My count may be off, but my estimate is between 5,000 and 6,000 parking spots.
I've heard 11,000 from a different source.
The 10,000 estimate was based on the square feet and compared to the vehicle capacity of similar sized parking garage at a Disney location.
I think since this is a TEXAS parking garage, the parking stripes have to be big enough to accommodate the #1 vehicle type in TEXAS, pickup trucks..... I rock a 350 Ford Diesel, and trying to park it in those little sissy stalls in the Seattle SeaTac parking garage is a nightmare.....
on the other hand, the stalls might be smaller on the lower floors too, I've seen that done as well. Big boys can walk a way, little car drivers need to be closer to the ground, lol.
@@eclecticmemes Got a tape measure? What's a plus-size parking stall measure?
half way point of the quarter... 5-6 weeks more to get production on the road for domestic delivery...
Are you a short term investor?
@@jbbuzzable I have been in and out about 15 tranches over the past 9 years and waiting for the picture to clear up a bit right now, thus interested in current deliveries after a weaker one already this year.... let the layoffs etc calm out, watch the next actions and where focus firms up. I do both long term holds and some short term trades, and have moved on both overlapping to generate cash to do other things as well - including the money I had more than 400% gain on in NVDA the past 2 years. Musk's an interesting guy, maybe spread too thin in some regards IMO, but he's being him and that's OK. I wish I could buy spacex for instance. Wish Redwood Materials was available on earlier Tesla guys' next ventures. Thanks for asking.
Like I have stated before I know absolutely nothing about construction and find these videos fascinating. So my question is, is there a method for pouring the concrete on the parking garage? I don’t think they pour the first or top floor first. I am sure there is a lot of knowledge on which floor to pour first. Does someone know? Thanks Brad….
Would normally just start at the bottom and work upwards.
That said, in the main building floors had concrete placed out of this sequence. Could be the same in the parking garage if some works required a completed concrete floor before others.
See Brad's 11 May video. Eastside of parking garage. Lower floors not concreted.
I dont get how one video they say tesla laying off staff and sales are down and yet all we see is tesla building more infrastructure.. they seem unstoppable.
Projects already started and ill-conceived projects like the tunnel and "robo-taxi" data center.
The boring is verry messy
You said that before, but failed to state why that is relevant.
@@jbbuzzableI think those are only words she knows in English
@@jbbuzzable Here's what's relevant; As a tunnel project manager, I believe the general tidiness and organization of a construction site is a window into the overall organizational attitude to safety, quality and efficiency. I have often criticized TBC for these reasons. Any comparison with a modern urban TBM tunnelling site will show the difference very clearly. When I repeatedly say that TBC appear to be 20 years behind the curve of current tunnelling technology, this is one of the clear indicators that jumps out at me.
@@davidsalisbury50 after 30 plus years in oil and gas plants I can absolutely confirm your assessment. I have seen and participated in the huge transformation for the better, with unrelenting focus on safety. The very first thing that always came up during walkabouts was tidiness in general and proper organization around locations where hot or cold work permits were in force. Like you have written constructive+critical comments on tunneling, maybe I can add that over the last year(s) I've been trying to suggest that the work in and around that utility platform next to Cathode was unsatisfactory in this respect. And now the corner of a fairly fragile regasification unit next to the liquid Oxygen has been damaged. What more can I say, really? It is just sad and completely avoidable.
They’re getting rid of model y night shift sending them to cyber. Then layoffs again soon.
