Chapter 235 Humanoid Crane
October.
Tianziling, Black Hole Town.
The "Technology Tower" in the center of the basin has recently completed the high-grade cement pouring of the tower base. The load-bearing tower base weighing more than 10 million tons uses tens of thousands of tons of super-iron steel bars as the skeleton. In addition, in the center of the tower base, a super-iron pier with an absolutely horizontal surface and a cross-sectional area of 38 square meters is left.
It is this pier that will support more than 99% of the mass of the "Technology Tower", and it will bear more than 100,000 tons per square meter on average.
It took more than three months for the professional construction team to complete the pouring of the load-bearing tower base and the establishment of the super-iron pier... Wei Ming processed its surface to a height error of no more than 1 micron, and left thousands of deep holes with a diameter of 1.5 cm, which are prefabricated holes for inserting super-titanium steel bars.
In addition, at the foot of the mountain less than one kilometer away from Tianziling, a prefabricated parts factory covering an area of more than 20 acres has been built. Using the water drop crystal cutting knife of the Phoenix cutting machine tool, it can process various materials like cutting wood.
There are also laser welding equipment in the factory, which can generate a temperature of tens of thousands of degrees, and weld parts of materials such as super iron and super aluminum alloy into prefabricated components one by one, and the error will not be greater than 1 micron... Under high temperature and low pressure environment, materials such as super iron will expand and return to their original state, not only filling the gap, but also mixing the two materials together, and the welding effect is good.
But there are also some key load-bearing parts. De Weiming uses Xiao Hei to extract all the air between the two pieces of material, cut off a layer of each, and then make the contact surface have a serrated bite, and let Xiao Hei generate a strong gravitational force to stir it, and finally merge into one, the effect is much better than welding.
Through various methods.
Small parts weighing hundreds of kilograms form a large part weighing tens of tons.
Multiple large parts weighing tens of tons become a "prefabricated part" weighing from hundreds of tons to thousands of tons.
Then, like "building blocks", these "prefabricated parts" are combined together to form a skeleton of a "technology tower" with a height of more than one kilometer. On the basis of the skeleton, other materials are filled, the interior is decorated, and water, electricity and network are connected, and finally it can be settled in and used.
For example, the first "prefabricated part" that the prefabrication factory spent more than a month to assemble weighs more than 3,000 tons. It is the "egg bottom" that connects to the super iron platform pier. 70% of the components are super titanium, and the value is more than 3 billion.
But here comes the problem!
How to transport a prefabricated part weighing more than 3,000 tons over a mountain hundreds of meters high to the center of the basin with a straight-line distance of nearly two kilometers?
Transport it with a heavy-duty truck?
Or lift it with a long-arm crane?
It's just that a big guy weighing more than 3,000 tons, except for the centipede flatbed truck with thousands of wheels, no engineering machinery can carry it, right?
And the road on the mountain is steep and not flat.
Even if a 20-meter-wide gravel road is opened, the diameter of the first circular prefabricated part of more than 30 meters will definitely encounter obstacles halfway and be stuck, and it will not pass at all.
Some engineers have also thought of a way to lift it in the air. As long as there are about 80 Blue Whale transport aircraft working together, it is entirely possible to lift this big guy... but the risk factor is relatively high and it is not convenient for high-precision installation.
Almost all the plans were rejected.
What to do?
How to solve the problem of moving this big guy?
October 3.
It was a dark and windy night.
The night when the first prefabricated part was assembled, the engineers just started to feel headaches.
This prefabricated part weighing more than 3,000 tons placed in the open air suddenly broke free from the attraction of the blue planet and slowly floated in the air.
It rose to a height of ten meters, thirty meters, fifty meters, and hundreds of meters.
The prefabricated part floated in the air like a UFO.
Then it slowly moved westward, crossed the mountain, and settled directly above the super iron platform in the center of the basin, and then slowly descended.
…
At this moment, there were hundreds of people waiting next to the super iron platform.
Engineer Li Zheng rubbed his sleepy eyes and muttered: "Installing prefabricated parts at night? Where are the prefabricated parts? Where are the crane equipment? Even the construction lights cannot be turned on. You can only wear a helmet light. How can you work in the dark?"
"It's completely nonsense, nonsense, and fantasy! How can you install it without anything? Will it fall from the sky?"
"Hey, everyone, pay attention to the top of your head!"
The voice of a loudspeaker sounded at this time: "The prefabricated parts have come down. Cheer up and look carefully at the installation hole numbers of each of them. Install the holes later. Report any problems immediately!"
"Where did the prefabricated parts come from?"
Li Zheng was about to report this problem, but when he looked up, oh my god! He was almost scared to death. How did the behemoth above his head come from?
It's still slowly descending!
And it's silent and motionless, like a five-finger mountain.
Oh my god, ghost!
It's a ghost, this is not scientific at all.
Newton's coffin lid could no longer be held down. If Einstein were alive, he would kneel down and call God, shouting that science is dead and God should be established.
A wave of shock and commotion occurred, and some people were about to collapse and subconsciously ran away.
"Why are you making a fuss? This is normal! Stand at your respective positions and complete the installation work."
The loudspeaker shouted and forcibly suppressed the commotion, and directed to continue the installation.
"Hole No. 1 is completely aligned."
"Hole No. 7 is slightly deviated and needs to be corrected."
"Hole No. 38 has a large deviation and needs to be adjusted."
"Hole No. 99 has been corrected."
"Hole No. 100 has a slight deviation, no more than 1 micron, please make a slight correction."
More than 20 minutes later.
After continuous corrections and adjustments, the first prefabricated part weighing more than 3,000 tons was accurately placed on the super iron pier with an installation accuracy of less than 1 micron. Thousands of super titanium steel bars and thousands of reserved deep holes were tightly put together, just like the insertion of nuclear power plant fuel rods.
The installation was successfully completed!
"Okay, the task tonight is completed. Go back and rest after work. Don't think too much and don't talk nonsense! This is an ordinary high-tech application. You will get used to it in the future. Those who shout and discuss and expose outside will be fired!"
The loudspeaker warned.
But hearing this.
Li Zheng, who looked at the time on his watch, couldn't help laughing.
"Is this just ordinary high-tech?"
"More than 3,000 tons of stuff, floating down from the top of my head out of thin air, I won't bother with this detail, but how long did it take to install just now? 25 minutes, or 23 minutes, in short, less than half an hour, with a high precision of less than 1 micron error, to achieve perfect installation."
"I have participated in many large-scale cross-sea bridge construction projects. Don't try to fool me about what this means. When building the Shenzhen-Hong Kong-Zhuhai Undersea Tunnel, a thousand-ton prefabricated cement immersed tube took at least half a day to install. The error was less than 0.5 cm, which was considered qualified. In the case of a gale of more than level 6, it was impossible to go out to sea to work."
"Haha, more than 3,000 tons, more than 20 minutes, 1 micron precision, once exposed, construction engineers all over the world will go crazy!"
"This is definitely not the engineering construction technology that Blue Star should have!"
But...
Think about the high salary you get.
Li Zheng decided to keep the secret of aliens helping in the construction a secret for the time being, unless it was uploaded all over the Internet. After the project was successfully completed, he would write an anonymous article to brag about it. After all, as a senior commentator who has been hanging out on the Bihu forum for many years, he was really afraid that his hands would shake when he read such shocking melons and revelations, so he immediately typed out this personal experience on the keyboard.
He really had cooperation and contact with aliens.
