Dear MEL Topic Readers,
What’s it’s like to work in the biggest building in the world
The still world’s largest building structure was constructed over a half century ago to produce the then the largest airliner, Boeing 747, nicknamed a jumbo jet. In order to manufacture several of such airplanes, a 13.3-million-cubic-meter factory was built in the forest near Seattle, Washington, USA. The mega-factory is still producing Boeing’s fleet of 767, 777, and 787 models and is worked by as many as 10,000 workers in each eight-hour shift. There are a fire station, medical services, and over 1,000 bikes that help workers move faster.
It is also the world largest unairconditioned structure. In summer, massive doors are opened to get fresh air in and in winter, heat from the lights and human bodies warm the workers and visitors.
Enjoy reading the article about the scale of the world largest building structure and think if you want to visit and see it.
p.s. There is also a short video that shows the scale of the factory.
