Removal of Heavy Concrete Lintel - Speeded Up (3X) 

haha! Good vid. Nice one lads. I did the same thing but on my own. Didn't look that heavy...All went well until I somehow had the whole thing in my arms and nowhere to go except down. Looked for certain it would slide down the brickwork and take the ouside tap off at minimum. I let one end go and as it went pitched it over like those caber toss guys do. Luckily no one was watching..

That you make at 8:40 it was necessary to make it at the beginning when lintel was in place.

What people will do for vanity

When it was freed I would have taken it on the inside lifter straight inside as it could have been brought out of building after job done.

wow you guys are hacks!

Yet another video on RU-vid where Strongboys are being misused. The main cause of collapse during masonry alterations is overloading due to removing Strongboy’s further from the wall to either avoid internal 1st floor wall damage or where attempting to gain more fitting work space as over extending greatly affects the capacity. When fitted with a Strongboy or any other similar designed product the Acrow props safe working load is severely reduced by at least 90%, from 3,400kg down to the maximum 340kg and can even reduce down to 0kg of which depends on the size & the working height of the Acrow prop, how plumb, how tightly fitted and how far the Acrow prop is positioned from the centre of the wall and is fully explained within this guide. - It’s urban myth that the Strongboy is suitable for every task, with the instructions changed by enforcement of the H.S.E in November 2015 and now read; “Before using a Strongboy you should identify that it is a suitable method to carry out the intended works”. British law also states that all temporary support must be designed, installed & maintained to withstand the load and only used for the purpose for which it was designed for, a structure must not be loaded as to render it unsafe at any time to any person.

Started with "speeded" WOW lol. there is no such word. Past tense of "speed" is "sped".

nightmare

Everything about this is wrong. No ear defenders or hardhats especially when they removed one of the supporting Akros while working underneath. Hope people don't copy this method. New Lintols needs to rest on padstones.

Shite ! To slow and unsafe !!
