I have been given one year to move roughly 10,000 tons of steel. Certain areas have shorter deadlines which will be explained later. The representatives from Sims Metal told us they moved 13,000 tons in seven to ten days at a Chrysler Plant. Of course they had more equipment and a larger crew, but that is impressive. The Chrysler Plant was shut down for a remodel and that is the time they had to complete the job. A lot of the steel was robots, so they also did a lot of sorting of metals.
There are four parts to the building. We call them the office, the boilers, the turbo room, and the power station. The boiler building is 10 stories tall with two more floors below ground level. The boilers themselves are eight stories tall and I am guessing 60 ft. by 30 ft. in diameter. I will give a more accurate measurement later. Right now we have limited light in the building and have to use flashlights to navigate. Therefore some pictures will not be good quality and some items will not be shown.
I am meeting a member of the forum this morning to give him a tour. This will be the second member of the forum that I have met face to face.
