Communist leader says build me a hospital in 10 days or you will die from lead poison.
Well there is that. And there is the fact that they have the biggest manufacturing base in the HISTORY of this planet. And over a billion people to work it… Chip
they do. but they tend to cheat, substitute, and pretend, so they put on good shows but it’s all fake. and they all know it’s fake, but they’re all ok with that.
and they won’t be able to sustain it long term. alisa rosenbaum expressed it best – an eastern potentate doesn’t need technology to bang ten women every day and fall asleep drunk every night, so he won’t bother with it, but anyone else having technology is a threat to his rule, so he’ll ban everyone else from having it at all. that’s where they’ll wind up.
oh my goodness – people on this blog are downvoting rosenbaum? statist heretics!
Helps not having to wait for all of your supplies to arrive via slow boat from China.
It all depends on your definition of a hospital.
Say compared to the “hospitals” in Africa? Chip
“How can China build a hospital in 10 days?”
they didn’t. they built something and called it a hospital. this is china, that’s how they do everything.
Looked like a hospital to me. The one’s we build here in the US are monuments to those that donated the funds to build them or designed them and are so extravagant that they could be museums. Function over form should be all that is required. Why do Universities spend so much on extravagant Union Halls and Science Buildings? Why not a simple prefab metal building or concrete tilt wall construction? We don’t need huge lecture halls anymore this shit can be done on the web on computer. But I digress, sorry… Chip
“looked”, sure. that’s how they do things. the confucianist overlord (or now communist party ruling class families) tells you the way it is, and you smile and nod and agree – any disagreement with a superior is evil, by definition.
“why not simple prefab metal buildings”
why not mud huts?
Surprised the “hospital” is not a bunch a bunch of incinerators.
(laughing) dude, that’s awful. (laughing)
Well smaller gov you obviously have no experience with building a modern hospital. Ever heard of or installed a laminar flow system in an OR. How about the interface between the lf units and keeping an overpressure in an or to keep outside germs and other nasties like the current corona virus out of said or. Maybe you have experience with running return air and exhaust air systems thru uv light and chemical baths to kill things like the corona virus running rampant in China. A ten day hospital is nothing more than a disease recycling center that will most likely infect the workers in said hospital than cure anyone. I have installed commercial HVAC systems for 35years and have built a bunch of hospitals. Just my trade takes a lot of time not to mention all the other trades needed for monitoring equipment for both patients and building back-up power and all the other things you know nothing of. A ten day hospital is most likely just a stop on the way to the creamatorium. FOOT
I’ve built modern hospitals, clinics, and all types of buildings. I did construction, design, and management of both my entire life. Over forty years of experience. So before you start judging someone maybe you should learn a bit about them first… Chip
Been in construction for just over 15 years and still a newbie but agree with you chip.
Here in West form and fit is put far above function. And in my experience Hospitals and Schools are among the most painful design processes. It seems that nobody wants to be responsible for anything.. it is always design by committee so that blame gets spread around.
The longer it takes, the better it is for everyone.
The company I work supplied rebar to build a local hospital and it was a shitshow from the get go…
The stakeholders couldn’t be bothered to keep track of themselves little lone a hospital. The contractors involved just sat back and waited for the mistakes and confusion to pile up. It was all plain as day in the Contract Set. Drawings were half complete and nothing was thought out. Everyone had a wish list. Even a novice with one glance could see the problems that would ensue..
One of the most egregious things done was in the new Operating Room addition. The geniuses who designed it forgot to consult the Doctors who were going to use it. They had entire room done with much fanfare… Then the folks who had to use it showed up and said it had to all be tore out. So they did and lots of money was wasted making the room right for that man’s committee…
Skip to this hospital and the reason it got built so quick was because there was only one person in charge….
One committee matters in Wuhan and it uses real lead in its pens..
No permits, no inspections, no red tape…
Get er done.
Exactly, no fucking fag, queer, lesbian and the whole lot of fuck nuts training before anything happens.
And no multi-cultural hiring requirements. Didn’t see any female quota impediments either.
Let’s be honest, when you have a unified people of a single, national mindset you can move mountains.
The mocking is ridiculous. The Great Wall is a wonder. The terracotta army and underground complex built centuries ago took an estimated 100,000 workers 37 years to complete. The world’s largest pyramid almost a square mile, is also in China.
Imagine what we could do with that kind of unity. Look how effectively we built the great Alaska highway through mountains and crossing rivers in frozen countryside in 18 months for hundreds and hundreds of miles… now it takes 6 Mexicans to ineffectively fill a pothole and a decade+ to build a ” freedom tower”…
Mock them but politics aside, a unified people, a singular people and culture acting with national pride is powerful… Fifty years from now, what is left of our “diverse” nation will be a crumbling, broken and bankrupt mess.
China was there centuries before us and most likely will be there when the USA is a memory.
“Imagine what we could do with that kind of unity.”
imagine being trapped within that kind of unity ….
well now. had no idea.

Interesting gman, I got to look into this, interesting. Thanks
You can build things real fast without plumbing. I didn’t see any pipework put in place before the foundation was poured. Also looked like minimal foundation work and no grouted piles. More like a prefabricated warehouse, which means how many days prior to this propaganda extravaganza was the prefab fabricated? What DayX of the virus outbreak was this?
For comparison, in 2005/6 my employer, Woodside Energy, decided to contract a Chinese deepwater drilling rig to drill their Jahal prospect in the JPDZ region of Timor Sea. It took 4 months of repairs and retrofits to get the rig up to Australian maritime code prior to entering Australia’s EEZ, and there were significant rig system breakdowns during the drilling program. And yes, there was a ballast related load shift that should never have happened that crushed a
guy in a storage container when all the stuff in the container fell on him. So, these guys can’t convince me they are building a “hospital” in 10 days, and if it is a hospital they’ll spend the next 5 years doing constant repairs.
These Chinese are full of shit folks…

There is definitely Sum Ting Wong, because Ho Le Fuk, numbers are We Tu Lo.
Grade A comedy.
At 1:44 it mentions sewage water treatment rooms. Plumbing must have been run through the walls. It does make you wonder when they started the pre-fab. Just 1,000 beds would take quite a while to build.
Sounds more like a Man Camp than a hospital, doesn’t it?
“Plumbing must have been run through the walls.”
like living on a ship. wonder how much integrity all those internal slapped-together systems have. well like smallgov says, emergency situation, looks decent.
That’s my take, same way that “they” prefab cruise ships. And we all know how sanitary those are.
It is almost like a big lego construction project, isn’t it?
(watched the video) well it looks impressive.
I agree. It is an emergency requirement. They are not building the Notre Dame Cathedral… Chip
“It is an emergency requirement.”
concur.
It would take 2 years just to get a certificate of need in the US.
That’s a bigger problem with the corrupt, government-protected, medical cartel we all suffer under.
And another 5 years fighting lawsuits from the environmental crazies…
We can do the same thing with inflatable MASH units again site prep and go , no permit process no environmental impact study and no politicians with their brother in-law or son winning the no bid contract . Also all pre-fab plug & play . Not the place you want your kid or other loved ones boxed into .
Sure crisis management forces a great deal especially when the Chi-Com government does not accept no or excuses !
+1 but never saw a 1,000 bed MASH unit in my 25 years in the Army. And my wife was medical and deployed with them several times… Chip
More than one MASH unit
So they used all the shipping containers no longer headed to the USA. Makes sense.
for a while in the u.s. they were paying $25 to anyone who would take a container. free delivery. can you imagine the industrial pressure behind that ….
25 bucks, eh? I’ll take 8. When I have my plot of isolated land, will advise delivery info.
They can’t build a hospital in 10 days but you can build a crematorium in 5.
fewer sanitation requirements.
160 managers for 240 workers? That’s a 1-to-1.5 ratio . . . whole lotta micromanaging, I guess.
If you look at the video of the building of the second hospital, below? A hell of a lot more than 500 people working around that construction site.
How long does it take concrete to cure?
28 days for starters. It’s stable in 7 but not as a footing and definitely not as a foundation.
I’ve found another video of the second hospital being built. I didn’t find it until after I emailed this to Admin.
This video shows the enormity of the work ongoing night and day. The manpower available!
salt or sugar cured?
Believe it or not, a good concrete man will talk to you about how you want the concrete mix.
I actually asked about having colored concrete and the guy told me to paint it and save the wasted money.
Haha… a good concrete man is hard to find.
That sounds a bit short sighted to me. Paint peels/fades.
Ah… he meant while wet. Then, it seeped right in… I have images of him and his “boys” with big squeegie-looking things to spread the color along the top in neat little lines. In the barn.
Didn’t bother in the basement. I knew my husband was gonna pad it and put flooring on it. He don’t half-ass nuthin.
At least a few weeks.
The comments on the yube tube video read like a bunch of awestruck little kids.
Those same folks are amazed at virtually everything that goes on because they have NEVER bothered to look beyond their own navels for an understanding of how the world REALLY WORKS. That is also why they vote for democrats.
I think Despair.com covered it quite well:
Or helpers from outer space.
These guys.
my drill sergeant put it this way: “nothing is impossible if you don’t have to do it yourself.”
The Chinese – as a group – have always been the worker bees, the ants. They are incredibly industrious and there are a couple billion of them. Couple that with an authoritarian government and voila.
Rigid steel bolted in square cubes, pre-fabbed by probably a 100k factories. The same with all the other materials and equipment. It may not be aesthetically pleasing, but I’m pretty sure it will get the immediate job done.
It is a society almost completely devoted to the needs of the collective.
Am about 50 pages…

Duality is the nature of All Things.
On or Off.
My son tells me quantum math allows for an infinite possible states between on and off.
It isn’t that I disbelieve. I cannot see them in my mind.
remember after the cali quake in ’94,there was a crucial overpass that was rebuilt in about a month?
it can be done —
I guess the answer is lots of pastel colored backhoes.
Is why it made me think of Lego World.
Just add water, and hold my beer.
Years of environmental reviews were not needed, and anyone who might have suggested such a thing would not need a hospital, just a very small plot of ground.
The small plot of ground shared with others who had questions.
Competitive juices are flowing.
What can our awesome constructors do like that?Airport, bridge, stadium, rest stop…
Commence.
