Push Wall with Truck & Timber
At 10:21 in
Day 1: Emergency Foundation Repair
What happens here
A large 6x6 timber is attached to the truck's hitch receiver, extending horizontally to span several blocks of the garage wall. With a worker carefully monitoring the wall's movement and guiding the driver, the truck gently backs up, pushing the timber against the wall. The goal is to move the bowed sections of the wall back into alignment. This is done in several stages, moving the timber along the wall and applying gentle, controlled pressure to gradually push it back evenly. They observe the wall moving and adjust the position of the timber to target different sections.
Goal: Gently push the bowed garage wall back into vertical alignment using a truck and timber.
