This past weekend I caught the tail-end of a special History Channel show, Jobsite: Concrete Countdown. This one hour episode details a construction crew pouring the top floor of a Manhattan skyscraper. The catch? They only have 90 minutes to get the concrete from the ground, up 700 feet to the 60th floor and poured before it dries up.
I know a lot of you deal with high-pressure jobsite situations like this one all the time. But let me tell you, I was definitely on the edge of my seat! And it put into perspective the importance of clearly and accurately documenting project information with solutions like Bluebeam.
If you’re interested in watching the episode yourself, it’s airing again on Saturday, January 23rd at 6pm. And remember, to keep on PDFin’!
