What are some cooler/more interesting types of construction to get into as a superintendent?

I am currently an assistant superintendent for a multifamily construction company in Texas. I am in my twenties and have been doing it about two years now. I really enjoy my job as a superintendent, but I can tell that I will burn out on multifamily within the next couple jobs. It's just so monotonous. It's the same thing over and over again for (insert number) units until the job is done. Like most multifamily the materials are all cheap and crappy and it's all about quantity over quality, though we're building "luxury" apartments. For this reason the subs tend to be pretty careless. As a contractor for 8 or so years before this job, I was fortunate enough to be taught by very skilled tradesmen who take great pride in their work, thus learning to do the same. I would love to hear of any suggestions of areas I could look into moving toward that would be more interesting or fulfilling than multifamily.

How to adjust CTL track tension (VIDEO)

It’s one of the simpler maintenance chores you can do, but adjusting the tension on the tracks of your compact track loader is critically important. If your tracks get too loose, they may spool off the undercarriage and put you in a bind – replacing tracks in the field takes at least two people and often auxiliary equipment. If your tracks are too tight, they can damage the undercarriage and lead to premature wear. We teamed with Leland Garrison, service technician at Thompson Tractor in Birmingham, Alabama, for a quick lesson on the proper way to tension the tracks on a Cat CTL. Note that different brands of CTLs will have different ways to accomplish this task, so consult your owner’s manual or your dealer and follow their instructions for the brand of machine you have. And don’t miss our video of this guide below where Garrison takes you through each step of this process. 1. Jack up the machine Raise one side of the machine with a jack and place a suitably rated jack under...
