  • @tdimccullough
    @tdimccullough 8 месяцев назад +6

    Here in UK asphalt is different, the asphalt is spread with the same machine but
    immediately after the asphalt machine comes another machine that "sprinkles" 3/4inch stone which is coated in liquid bitumen, this is called the wear coat, then the stones are pushed into the asphalt with roller

    • @Rossfab

    • @tedc7714
      @tedc7714 8 месяцев назад +1

      They do that here also on existing rock roads. Top seal. Or old asphalt cracking etc hot tar and gravel. To seal it again. Rock roads a all crushed limestone here in indiana. White dust all summer. All water up in middle of indiatna limes up coffer and tea pots
      Western indy is rusty coal country. Iron in water.
      Red iron and white lime cruds up water heaters bad.

    In Iraq the driveway to my building got paved. It took two or more weeks before we could drive on it, it took that long to lose enough heat and be hard. Mind you if you turned your steering wheel while on is you still made marks six months later!

    @Denis-tu1pd 8 месяцев назад +1

    When I was a kid my uncle would pave and the paver had rollers that would go inside the most rear wheels. So in paving season the most rear wheels would be steel and the rest would be high polished aluminum wheels. Mbts would look good on that roller. Another awesome improvement done by dp . If he pays he says. Denis from Santa Rosa CA

    There is a place in England called Derby (although the English pronounce it DAR-bee) whose motto is "Energy, power and strength" and the "The Derby Ram". Fair to say you guys exemplify the same spirit down there in the Ohio Valley. You had "The boys from the black stuff" doing a good job today, always interesting stuff Mike (and MBTS, of course!)

    Now this is a great time of year for the asphalt crews when they can actually look forward to radiant floor heating on a crisp morning. It looks great too. Some of the asphalt road crews down here in NC could use a refresher course. I get sea sick some of the roller coaster repaves . Being 5 hours away from the ocean that's just not funny. I only said SOME. LOL

    Looks like a good time of year for road paving cause it's much cooler. I've never seen a job that looks hotter. (Except for roofers. That sun is not relenting.)
    My uncle retired from Barber-Greene in Aurora, IL that made pavers like that. If I remember correctly they were bought out by Caterpillar.

  • @jeffreybrookes9731
    @jeffreybrookes9731 8 месяцев назад

    That just brought back bad memories of when I work for a small contractor that wanted to do everything we did some asphalt mostly private driveways we had no spreader box we had a 40 year old roller that didn't work very well and a probably 25 year old single axle dump truck which used to be my job to drive spreading asphalt by hand is not fun😊

  • @jamesbergfeld5923
    @jamesbergfeld5923 8 месяцев назад +8

    You can tell the time and effort that you put into your videos pay off. Also they have good roller operators by they way the turn behind the paver to keep the asphalt from rolling.

    Did I hear you correctly? $45 a day to park and launch? Here in Ohio on Lake Erie and Sandusky bay there are quite a few free nice state ramps and even private launch ramps are $10/day. I could launch directly out of millionaire gated marinas for $45. I love your area but I don’t think I’ll be making a trip to fish for that. I love your channel. Really love the abandoned farm. Keep up the good work!
