Have you ever wondered what it takes to build these giant buildings and how do these construction people get up there and maintain their balance and do such a good job and they do not even fall off; many people are amazed with the construction process and if you have ever wondered to then try pulling up one of those web cams that is set on the construction of one of these places, it is amazing.

There are some places like this in Texas that has been observed with their technique where they put these giants Texas scaffolding around these big round balls that looks like a giant water tower and they scaffold up and around it like it was nothing. Then they apply these so called Texas coatings right on it after wards. What does it take to be one of these brave souls to do this kind of job; their mamas must live on pins and needles.

Doing something like this cannot be just a summer job and go do a little construction here and there for a couple of months and then go back to school in the fall, this is very technical work and safety is imperative and you can be sure that OSHA would be on that like a fly in hot water. There are just too many variables to do this type of work and a person would definitely need a degree for this career.

And the turnaround time on this type of construction is also fascinating this week a person could drive by and view it starting with the steel beams going up and drive by in two or three weeks and walls are fully completed with flooring and spaces for the windows and possibly some balconies stuck in here and there. The architecture has come a long ways in the past decade including the very material that is used to complete these master pieces.

The sprays that they finish them with is also state of the art, nothing can get through to fade the material away it is so well protected from weather and human destruction; and at the same time they have material that they can apply to this very substance and it just wipes away like a water based paint. This is why today’s young students need to stay in school, look at what you can be and what you can do with your entire future; and the salaries are far beyond your imagination.

The next time that you go by some local construction pay closer attention to what is actually happening and watch the people that are doing the labor; these are some very talented folks and they know exactly what they are doing right down the millimeter and that is a fact. Even though it seems dangerous due to the height and materials used it is probably one of the safest jobs around because of the highly strict safety regulations enforced by the federal government and OSHA which is one of the strictest entities around.
