About

If you wonder how the modern world works, you're in the right place! How does dam construction work? Where does steel come from? And what giant machines and people are involved along the way? What's the point? First, everyone should appreciate this unknown world that keeps their lives moving 24/7. Second, it offers a phenomenal career for those willing to work hard and seeking purpose. What is BuildWitt? We're a company on a mission to Build the Dirt World's Next Generation through people-first software, leadership events, and storytelling. For those in civil construction wanting to train and develop their people better, learn more: BuildWitt.com And a huge thank you to our channel sponsor Ariat Work!

Video Description

Disclaimer—this video is NOT produced by CLT. Welcome to Charlotte Douglas International Airport, one of the busiest in the United States. And like any other busy airport, it's growing FAST. And fast growth doesn't only mean new airport terminals—it means entirely new runways, like CLT's fourth parallel runway project. A multi-year $1B undertaking, the fourth parallel runway will eventually allow air traffic to flow in and out of the airport more efficiently. To build it, there's A LOT of earthmoving involved. And this is where ES Wagner comes into play. Moving dirt since 1947, they also moved the dirt for CLT's third parallel runway in the early 2000s. Now they're back, and we enjoyed checking out the action. To learn more about ES Wagner, check out their website here: https://www.eswagner.com/
