hi guys Greg here and welcome back to my channel SITENG when you're gonna find all you need to know
about work and the life of a civil engineer and uh today's video guys uh gonna be a little bit
update on my sightings project here you can see that job behind me uh if you watched me before uh
you know what it is here if not just guys come back to this video you're gonna see
how it all went up uh from the ground wars hero capping beam and uh reddington's doing the frames
now but i decided to do that video as this is the last day here on my side i just came back
from holiday and uh picking my stuff here uh you can see my motorbike here this is actually the
the tripod here and i don't know how i'm gonna take it on my bike but
i'm gonna sort something out engineer in mind and then guys the big news is i'm going to the
biggest job in europe king 3 point so if you're not subscribed yet to this channel
just do so guys turn the bell on as there's going to be the interesting videos coming and
this all that side behind me that's going to be just the baby side comparing to that one
it's the biggest job it's more than 50 cranes tower cranes i think the biggest crane there
as well so that's that's where we want to be guys that's the job every engineer wants to be
on the one of the big jobs like i showed you before uh in the in the city of london but i
think the the hingsley point is even uh greater than the biggest project here in london as this
is loads of stuff interesting stuff uh cutting edge technology in terms of engineering guys so
uh yeah i'm gonna show you quickly how the Hinkley point looks so i'm gonna give you the little bit
so let's have a look at guys and you're going to find everything on this channel so guys i'm
here now and in the campus bye bye london i don't know when i'm going to see you again
but you can see behind me there's a job there uh you can see the big car all these cranes here guys
i'm going to try i'm going to show you in a minute the video it's going to show you better all
that job here but that's the campus i'm staying here you see all these blocks here we got a big
contender with a pub with everything and uh behind me as well you can see you can play uh football
here we got tennis court as well and this campus is a hinky one is closer to the job and there's a
other one when i say actually one night when i get my induction here uh the Sedgemoore campus uh the
bigger one loads of people staying there as well but if you guys uh like to know more about these
things here how this job is looking as this is crazy you actually got the bus stops there as
well it looks like like a like a big bus stops inside the bus running around the job from the
place to the place from office to office and to the job so if you want to know a little bit more
about these things let me know in the comments guys and i'm definitely like one video covering
all this stuff but let me show you this job from the from the better perspective now anyway
so guys uh time for better perspective here are we gonna fly over the job here
and uh yeah that's the reactor building when i'm gonna be actually working as a section engineer
here i already met my crew which is great and the what is great thing about this job as well is
loads of people here guys from all over the world i'm working from a section engineer from libya i
met a great lady she was dreaming about this job and she got here lala from morocco by the way
lala if you watch this leave the comment and guys loads of people as i said south africa romania all
europe and lots of french people as the company i'm going to be working is the BYLOR which is a
joint venture between Laing O' Rourke and Bouygues travaux public so as you can imagine those are two
great big companies and the the good thing about this job this job is already running around five
years but this job gonna be running for another few years so actually if you're thinking about
joining this project there's still opportunity guys and even if you're starting your career or
even if you're just thinking about starting your career there's still loads of time to learn and
then you can join us here in the year or two as a site engineer as a setting out engineer
or whatever really you want to do so that's the great thing about it i'm going to show you
now the next video so that tour guys is updated from september here we are now in the beginning
of november and not many thing changes to be honest but uh yeah let's let's listen to the man
the latest edition of the hinckley point c virtual tour today we're gonna concentrate on unit one
of the Hinkley point c we're gonna go to the nuclear islands over to the galleries and
then we're gonna go to the conventional island and the pump house so let's go
welcome to the nuclear island this is what we call the hr building so this
is housed the steam generators and the actual racks of pressure vessel itself
so we this man gonna enter now internal structure of the reactor guys but i just
want to stop here as you can see this old liner that steel structure here i'm gonna be actually
working outside of it doing the two big walls here a very very challenging project really and
uh yeah let's listen to them let's have a look inside now and show the progress we've made today
some of the challenges that we've got to achieve before the end of 2021 so follow me
so we're now entering the hr building here on hinky point c unit one you can see the first
2021 milestone which was a real challenge to achieve the one and a half meter slab which
is actually 10 meters up in the reactor internal structures is now complete beneath me is around 10
meters of different rooms including the core catcher the big iwrst pool and a labyrinth of
other rooms that will support services here in the reactor building what you see behind is where the
reactor will actually sit so this is where the fishing process will actually create the heat
which will then be transferred to the four steam generators that will be housed in this building
and then the steam that's created from them steam generators have gone over to the turbine hill
above me you can start to see we're getting higher and higher and towards the the top of
ring one we're playing at the moment ring two is in the final completion of painting and then we'll
lower that on to the ring one in december of this year so if i reflect on the challenge the dome
lift what you can see in here is what we call the reactor internal structures so good progress one
and a half meter slab complete 5.15 meter slab done by the end of the year we'll then continue
upwards and the key challenge for early in 2022 is to fit what we call the reactor pulls so these
are huge poles that eventually hold the rector pressure vessel and allow us to fuel and de-fuel
the reactor the next challenge outside is to do 11 lifts of concrete to cover up these uh steel
liners that you can see here oh i just stopped for a minute so that's that's leaves 11 lifts
that's going to be where i'm going to be working actually guys and i can tell you already now we've
got to be big pressure on us as uh we nearly now in 2022 and uh they want to put that down
in december we're now doing the polar crane brackets in france and they will be fitted to ring
three which will be fitted around may time of next year and then finally the dome which is in really
good shape to be lifted in at the end of 2022 okay over to the galleries which we're gonna visit next
uh okay guys uh i'm not gonna be showing you the galleries i just wanna show you
uh where i'm gonna be working now and obviously if you like this video guys let me know i'm
gonna try to uh do some updates here i'm gonna try also to show you how i'm gonna
how i actually live what how the day looks here uh living in the campus and going to the job from the
job and on the job so uh just guys please uh if you like it don't forget to leave the thumbs up
leave some comments below what you want to see here if you got any questions as always guys
i'm going to answer as soon as i can and don't forget to subscribe to my channel as
this helps to grow our community here and the great thing about it i already met a few engineers
who told me here that this channel helped them a lot when they were starting their career when
they were looking for information for setting out that was great to hear for me guys i think that
was the best feeling i i had since i started my channel here that there are people actually
who are grateful for this for what i'm doing and appreciating this but guys as i said just
leave the thumbs up don't forget to subscribe and follow my linkedin page as well where you're going
