5:49 this 8 axle Tipper trailer is very interesting. In Europe there are 2 and 3 axle tipper trailers, in switzerland and the netherlands they use 5 axle solo trucks, but you don‘t see that many axles on a trailer unless it‘s a large flatbed trailer...
The State of Michigan allows up to 11 axles with no special permit. Basic weight formula is if an axle has at least a 9 foot spread from center of the axle to the center of the next axle in front and behind it you have gross 18,000lbs on the axle, are allowed 1 set of Tandem axles with a 9’ spread in front and behind it at 16, 000 lbs per axle of the tandem, all other axles that have less than 9’ spread are allowed to have 13,000 lbs per axle gross. That is how we come up with the 8 axle Live Bottoms gross weight of 154,000 lbs. A Super Train because of the spread axles on the pup is allowed 164,000 lbs gross weight.
Im impressed...my country cant do this as much of the road is the only access...3 weeks is a long time...if they wanted to re asphalt again...they have to do it side by side because to still allowing the traffic...Good job👍
Thank you @FVBmovies. It was a great project. We even found abandoned waterline from the early 1900's (tree trunk wood drilled hollow, wrapped in steel). If you're curious what that looks like, check out this video ruclips.net/video/w4LAhH49mBU/видео.html
I really like the floor-type drain because the water will go underground and enter under the underground sewer directly to the river, the best way to divert flood water, I hope in Malaysia they can make a drain as beautiful as this with a filter

@@teamelmersupdates7134 Thanks. It's not something most people think about, but I became acutely aware of it when my city started doing saw-cut joints in all of their new sidewalks (I don't know if it was a new requirement, but they suddenly started appearing everywhere). Riding a bike over wet-formed control joints feels like driving a car on Michigan freeways: very bumpy. I'm sure people who push baby strollers and shopping trolleys over bumpy sidewalks feel the same way. (I don't make a habit of riding my bike on sidewalks, but sometimes it's necessary.)

I am not sure how the project managers calculate the production. I'll try to get an idea from this project manager. Here is some info on the project that might help. www.teamelmers.com/projects/8th-street-reconstruction/
we are in the SLC suburb, we have no concrete curb, no sidewalk, no sewer, and storm system, no bike lane, only a few street lights but very dim, and road surface are 30, 40 years old.
I don't understand people like you, I mean you want more bikes on the road? I sometimes wonder if you really do want to make your own life worse just so you have more justification for being angry and miserable. Seems to be the best solution to build cycle paths away from cars
I don't have the exact number of days figured out but with this 3 blocks and an other 2 or three of a perpendicular street the dates were May 6th, 2019 to September 26th, 2019. Here is a link with more info on the project. www.teamelmers.com/projects/8th-street-reconstruction/
Thank you Sam, for your feedback, it is much appreciated. We will keep the time-lapse coming. we typically don't have much time-lapses this time of year because our work is finished up at this point and most of what we do this time of year is snow removal. We will make more of an effort to get more time-lapses for next season. Anything else you want to see besides time-lapse?
@@TeamElmers Is that normal amount of time to invest for this kind of project? I'm sorry for one more question, i'm starting to have interest in contracting. Thank you for the reply
@Muhammad Hamrozi I need to correct myself. The project took about 5 months, not 3. I was thinking of a different project. I apologize for the wrong info.
Interestingly enough, It was the people and businesses on the street that were happy it was going on. They even got after those who were being disrespectful and complaining about this happening.
It’s interesting to see the people with businesses right along the route in acceptance with the road construction. Considering the fact, that most of the time, road construction is very detrimental to the businesses that are directly effected by the road work. You have some businesses that have their main access/entrance that is only accessible from the road that is completely being reworked. Usually, if it is their ONLY entrance then the construction crew is obligated to build them a new temporary access but usually it is off to the side and/or hard to get to and that will deter enough customers to shut down most small businesses. Now, if it were Wal-Mart or something that is really big and people just have to have then it may stay afloat but it’s not very promising for most.
Well,that didnt go very efficient!First the sand on the road and then take it out again to install the pipes for the rain water and then the sand back on it again.. And where is the bike path???
Hi Joop, Sand on the road is stockpiled to be used for backfill on the site. Sometimes you work with the space you have and need to stockpile on site to assist the trucks. Or if you are talking about backfilling, pipe placement, filling again, and another pipe placement, It may be because the Wastewater sewer pipe and the water pipe are placed on different levels/depths in the trench. Wasterwater is lower than the water line with a minimum distance between the two lines required. That could be the answer for the different sand backfills. Or it may be different sections of the road. Not sure which clip you are referring to. Hope that helps. Thanks for your observations. And the bike path is shared outside the road - it is double wide for pedestrian section and a bicycle section in the new construction area.
Alles is mooi en netjes, maar met welke maximale snelheid mogen auto's daar rijden? Samen met de fietser. Er is geen apart fietspad voor fietsers. Everything is nice and tidy, but at what maximum speed are cars allowed to drive there? Together with the cyclist. There is no separate cycle path for cyclists. 🇳🇱🚲🚕
Speed limit is 25 mph. There is a separate bicycle path (dark gray sidewalk @4:36) and the light gray sidewalk is for pedestrians. Thank you for your comments.
@@EnjoyFirefighting Yes that is the start of the newly constructed section- transitioning from shared streets to dedicated sidewalk for pedestrian and bike. Very observant!
In my country, every step of work would be made by different companies, every company would work with thirty something years old east-german, or russian machines, and with skinny gypsies, with lack of safety equipment. Because of these previous reasons, this amount of work would last about three years, and one year after they done it, they would start to dig up again because "oops, we forgot the pipes" 🤨😡😡😤😤😠😠🤬
Nice! However, anyone watching this and does not see how there were so many unnecessary moving parts and digging… and how wasteful, time consuming and expensive this was… should pay extra tax dollars for this. A simple repaving, physical barrier for bikes and redoing the sidewalks would have saved sooo much money. A simple curb would have been safer as well to separate the street from the bike lanes all while creating a buffer. 🤦🏾♂️
@octaviouscollins4523 Agree to the sensible approach and responsible use of tax dollars. The people adding homes with no water pressure available would lovingly disagree about just paving the road. Sometimes roads need to be reconstructed due to their surface condition. Other times upgrading 50 - 80 year old underground pipes is needed to allow for growth in the area (and future growth). This reconstruction includes upgrading size and capacity of water, storm, and wastewater pipes, installing safer or more environmentally friendly systems, and safe operation of water, storm, and wastewater systems for years to come.
