Neoteric Special Project: Steel Building

• Neoteric employees prepare to move a new 7,000-pound steel building from the area in which it was constructed to its eventual location. Company engineers devised a system to hover the building on a cushion of air, greatly reducing the difficulty of the project.
• 
• The hover system for the building uses two modified hovercraft engine modules, one at each end of the building.
• 
• The engines are started up and the building begins its transit across the grounds.
• 
• Moving the building along the walkway
• 
• Directing the building as it approaches the east factory building
• 
• The building begins to make the turn as it passes the east building.
• 
• Continuing the operation, the building continues its course.
• 
• Neoteric crew members propel the building from behind as well as in front
• 
• The team pauses for a moment to plan out the steps to get the building around several young trees to its destination.
• 
• The building is guided across a grassy area to its final position.
• 
• After the building has been set in place outside the main offices and prepared for its use as a fireproof storage location, company files are moved inside.
