NEW YORK - January 22, 2010 - ABLE Rigging Contractors (ABLE) is proud to announce their association with CONSTRUCTION INTERVENTION, an all-new Discovery Channel series.
CONSTRUCTION INTERVENTION follows Charlie Frattini, New York Construction Extraordinaire, and his trusted team of contractors and designers as they find businesses who are in danger of failing due to botched, delayed, or impossible construction jobs and rescue them from their construction woes.
ABLE was involved in the construction process for the installation of a chimney on a commercial building by providing rigging and lift services. In order to keep the tight deadline and the show's project timeline efficiently, the 56-foot chimney was welded together on the ground, then hoisted onto the top of the building by ABLE Rigging. ABLE's operator then positioned the chimney atop a five-story roof and held it in place as welders anchored it in place. Normally this would have been done piece by piece attaching each together then to the building. This process would have taken 2 days. ABLE did it in an hour.
CONSTRUCTION INTERVENTION will premiere in April 2010, please visit www.discovery.com for more details.
