The HIGH life...

[RED BEACHBOMB]

I wanted to show what i been up to for the past year with these pictures and the awsome view i get everyday. i am over all the plumbing for this building andabout 14 plumbers as i manage there every move and see they have all the parts they need and it's done to plumbing code. we still use only copper andcastiron pipes in building like this as it is still the best product for the job that will last 50+ years easy.. and it,s still true craftsmanship handed downfrom the oldtimes like i learned the trade by.. it's a good feeling that when i leave this world part of me and my crew as well as the other co-workerswill still carry-on the daily dutys as we build it to do.

Dave, Nice work!
My son is a rising Senior in HS, he has been to the Wake football camps and hopefully is going again this year.
Would be blessed if he could get the chance to spend the next 4 years playing in that facility!
The HS he attends is so sorry the football teams have spent the last 6 yrs(since being formed) playing at the
Boys Club field.

In OKc they starting using pex pipes instead of copper..Copper stealing is rampant here in OKc..even after passing laws to stop the Meth heads stealing copperfrom new Housing..I was wondering if anybody else in Const trade having this problem..Peace out Steven

The Stadium itself was built in the 1950"s and after being winner the 2006 ACC title they have been pouring money into it and it's paying off big asyou can see, the skyboxs is all new from the ground up. the copper is mostly 4" blazed with two risers pre-side of building and will have a booster pumpwith a working range off about 100psi just to get the water to the 7th floor which should give about 50-65psi up there..i will try and shoot some more pictureswhen we get closer to being done.
