    Nothing to see here. Just some trees, and a few engineers and stone carvers working on an 80' statue... move along

Looks more like piles to me. Drive em deep so it doesn't fall over in soft soil. Google them.

Actually, those beams aren't piles, as piles would have way more steel to allow for greater stability. It's the structure, and someone has ID that piece over Twitter to be almost identical to the Goliath structure at SFGA.

That is what I meant.

I do like how this post changed from not giving someone a hard time to this.

Piles are sized for the load they will carry. I highly doubt they will be cutting and welding those beams on site to build a station.

Most steel is going to come prefabbed for steel structures. There may be occasional field modded pieces but cutting those in the field does not make economical sense.

I'm calling piles or part of a retaining wall since they almost all appear to be the same length.

Goliath?

At Six Flags Great Adventure?

It had better NOT be.

Yeah, Mr. Glauser is wrong on this. The beams he sees in on Goliath are Channel beams or C-Beams. The ones sitting by WWC are I-beams and more than likely for pile driving and building a retaining wall during construction.

And SFGA is in NJ.

That's SIX's exact nomenclature for the park. They do NOT recognize nor use SFGAd.

So do they use SFGAm for the IL park and SFGA for the NJ park?

Yep.

And they know just exactly who uses NJFTP.

And that's good enough for me.

I wonder if they already have a name picked out and if so is that something they copy right?

They've probably had a named picked out before the funnel cake stand bit the dust.
