tomorrow i'll level the trailer,, its been leaning for longer than we have lived here,, its at least 8" off level from side to side and I'm skerred to take out anymore walls till it sits level, also I cant fix anything till its level so what i fix isnt crooked when i do level the house
I levelled a two story house Once. The house sat completely on solid rock, with no foundation, suspended on about 50-60 pilons driven into the stone. I had to take out each pilon, one by one, place in a pneumatic jack, pump it up 6-8 inches, replace the pilon, then move to the next one. And the crawlspace under there I had to work with was only about 18"-24", so it was a real squeeze, working on my back, with cobwebs and all kinds of dead bugs and dried animal and gunk coming down on my face and neck. The whole house was creaking that low, ominous sound the entire time, it all could have came down any second, but I was getting paid triple pay + bonus, so I finished the job. Levelled the entire house, 8 inches on one side, over the course of two weeks. Then the boss wanted me to go back in and raise the whole thing another two inches level, and everybody on the team refused, too dangerous, but I went back under and did it for a flat fee of $800. This was back in the '80s, when worker safety didn't really mean anything.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

And to think we could have been spared your presence if one of those jacks failed. We were so close! -

A strudel (/ˈstruːdəl/ STROO-dəl, German: [ˈʃtʁuːdl̩] ⓘ) is a type of layered pastry with a filling that is usually sweet, but savoury fillings are also common. It became popular in the 18th century throughout the Habsburg Empire. Strudel is part of Austrian cuisine and German cuisine but is also common in other Central European cuisines. In Italy it is recognized as a traditional agri-food product (PAT) of South Tyrol.[1

It's actually not that hard or dangerous. There is massive leeway in MOST wood structures that allow for flexibility before catastrophic failure
Masonry structures...not so much. A few degrees outside of their original design specs and voila...instance rubble pile. Ala that nigger crashing into a building in Baltimore where the entire thing collapsed onto the car and pedestrian (in wheelchair) yet the wooden portion stayed (relatively) intact -

2023-11-19 at 11:30 PM UTCwelp, that didnt go as planned, the front end of the trailer came up just fine but the back not so much,, as I was jacking the back up it was real east but it didnt seem to bring the trailer up so I came inside and when i went to the back bedroom well it all became clear,, the frame went up but the trailer didnt you can see the frame rail humping up the floor in the bedroom.
now I have to build a beam inside the bedroom and jack the walls and roof up so I can replace the rotted floor then set the walls back down on the new floorThe following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -
