How It's Made: Giant Steel Beams, Rolling Mill, SoFi Stadium

The roof weighs as much as the Eiffel Tower, but it has no columns underneath. In this video, we go inside the Nucor Steel factory to see how massive W-Beams are rolled, drilled, and tested for the world's most expensive stadium. In this episode of Factory Secrets: 00:00 The 31,000-Ton Roof (SoFi Stadium) 01:30 Inside the Factory: Melting Iron at 3200°F 03:10 Basic Oxygen Furnace: The Chemistry of Strength 04:20 The Rolling Mill: Shaping giant W-Beams 06:00 The 1981 Hyatt Regency Disaster (Why we inspect steel) 07:30 Ultrasonic Testing: Finding invisible cracks 08:45 Logistics: Shipping 4,000 beams to Los Angeles Witness the journey from raw iron ore to the skyline of Los Angeles. We explain why structural steel must be flexible enough to survive earthquakes and why one loose bolt can cause a catastrophe. _________________________________ COPYRIGHT DISCLAIMER The Factory Secrets: How It's Made channel does not own all of the material in this video.
