S2, Episode #3 - Concrete Heroes: The Inside Story of the 'MegaSlab'
Consisting of 6,470 cubic yards across 256,100 SF over 32.5 consecutive hours, the “MegaSlab” placement at General Motor’s Arlington, Texas, plant in 2019 as part of the M5 Productivity Improvement Program still stands as the largest continuous steel fiber pour ever done.
In the latest episode of Said Differently, we’re joined by Barton Malow team members Ethan Uhl, Brian Willard, and Tom Binkowski, all of whom played a major role in the planning and execution of the MegaSlab. Our guest panel dishes on the inside story behind the placement, why it almost didn’t happen, and the eventual triumph that came from successfully completing it.
