Simultaneous Demolition of 16 Hi-Rise Commercial Buildings
May 14, 2010 industry videos
This must see video shows the controlled demolition of a cluster of buildings all falling into each other. The entire video is only 33 seconds, but it includes 3 different aerial perspectives.
What probably took many years of work by commercial contractors, took only seconds to demolish. This is waterfront property, so hopefully the site will be replaced with energy efficient buildings.

Craig Noble
I’m often approached with, “Hey Craig!”
And I say, “Yeah.”
They ask, “Great idea that companies can post their video on their Qual-Port – how did you come up with it?”
I figured there are probably other folks wondering the same thing but just not asking me, so I thought I’d answer the question for everyone here.
A couple of years ago, when Coty and I were traveling and interviewing construction company owners and executives about the JobSite123 concept, we were in a lot of company lobbies. And I kept noticing that many of them had flat screen TVs playing a video about their company while their clients and prospects were waiting. The video content ranged by company from a simple slideshow of impressive project pics to primetime quality company commercials. I was constantly impressed how well each video communicated that company’s expertise and values. I guess I shouldn’t have been so taken with it (I’ve been enjoying TV since birth) – but seeing video used to represent the history and ability of these construction companies impressed me to the point of thinking that brochures are old school.

JobSite123 – Facebook or LinkedIN for the Construction Industry

Mouji Linarez-Castillo, Director of Pre-Construction of the ANF Group introduces JobSite123.com to a group of over 400 South Florida commercial construction professionals on September 10, 2009.
Here is an excerpt from Mouji Linarez-Castillo’s presentation…
Good morning everyone and thank you for joining us again this year. I’m very excited to have such a great turn-out of over 400 contractors, material suppliers and other industry professionals. We’re very proud to kick-off our “Meet and Learn Breakfast” by introducing you to the new JobSite123.com which has a lot more to offer than what you saw last year. We’re using it as a tool and we hope that it will eventually eliminate our pre-qualification process. Wouldn’t that be nice for all of us?
We’re requesting at ANF… really mandating as you all know (but requesting sounds better lol!) that you participate by filling out a Qual-Port and making it complete including all the tabs so that we have the information we need.
Once you qualify with us by using your Qual-Port, you not only gain access to being on our bid list, but you make yourself visible to the whole [Commercial Construction] industry. I know that several of the large GCs [General Contractors] in our community have also adopted using JobSite123 and we’re going to be presenting it to owners as well to create transparency… (e.g. of why subs are a great fit for a job and why we are qualified to do the work that we do).
Many of you have already started to create a Qual-Port and that’s fantastic. Today, you’ll see the full capacity that this tool has to offer. All of the tabs that have been created were done by consulting with a 100 different general contractors and facilities managers so you can rest assured that the information that we request you put inthere is important to us and it’s information that we use.
The other new feature is industry connections and I’m sure that everybody has been at least exposed to and talked about Facebook and LinkedIN. It’s a part of life now whether we like it or not. This is a Facebook or LinkedIN for the construction industry. Which is fantastic becuase if I don’t know a sub and I want to get to know you, I’m going to want to call somebody that I do know and trust, that’s worked beside you to vouch for the quality of work you have. This allows you to do that. It allows you to cross-promote other sub-contractors that you worked along-side that you respect and can vouch for the work they do.
So, to get started today, join us in taking a leadership role in implementing this tool, using this tool and being a part of it. I know that many of us have done business for years together and I’m hoping that even with that, when you create your Qual-Port I learn something new about what you do.

JobSite123 is Going to Revolutionize our Industry
Dec 1, 2009 construction industry events, construction professionals testimonials, industry videos
Neil Hammack, Vice President / Project Executive of Moss & Associates in Fort Lauderdale, Florida comments on the significant impact that JobSite123 will have on the Commercial Construction industry.
A transcript of speech excerpts:
“I met Coty and Craig several years ago. I was one of the “100″ that they came and did the introduction to and I was involved in critiquing the whole process and I can tell you that I’ve seen the company evolve dramatically. It’s going to revolutionize [the commercial construction] industry and I think there’s even more to come.
When we talked about bringing JobSite123 to the west coast [of Florida], it was clear to me that this was the vehicle that was going to help me exponentially launch the Moss brand and I think you’ve seen how we’ve been able to do it today with what we have in the audience.
… we are thankful to Rich Armstrong at St. Joseph’s [a forward-thinking organization] who really got “it” [the impact JobSite123 is having on the commercial construction industry] and understood the power of “it” and for that we are very thankful.”
