    Great video. As a train enthusiast, I would love to know more about what the rail cars are bringing to your site and how it is unloaded from the cars and then stored prior to use.

    • @davidmorse8432
      @davidmorse8432 2 года назад +2

      The rail cars bring in the crushed aggregates needed for the asphalt mix. They may also bring aggregates used directly for subgrade preparation as many asphalt plants sell aggregates of different varieties to contractors and the general public. Asphalt cement can also be delivered by rail but today most asphaltic cement is brought to the plant by tanker trucks as it must be kept hot in order to flow out of the containment vessels. Aggregates brought in by rail are usually unloaded by hydraulic excavators that crawl up on top of the gondola type rail cars and dig out the material, loading it onto dump trucks. The excavators are equipped
      with special, high capacity buckets that do not have teeth and can clean out the rail cars efficiently. The dump trucks deliver the materials to their respective stockpiles. A front end loader will push up the dumped out material into a tall stockpile to save space. This method works well as it controls segregation that sometimes occurs when handling well graded aggregates. Sometimes the aggregate can be brought in by hopper cars that have doors on the bottom that can be opened. For this operation it is necessary to have a system of conveyor belts to convey the materials to their respective stockpiles. Careful attention must be taken to control segregation of the aggregates when using conveyors to feed stockpiles because if the material is dropped from an excessive height, large particles of material can separate from the smaller ones and render the material unsuitable for use as it may not pass the required specifications during a grain size analysis.

    Pretty interesting, my Father was a paving contractor in the late sixties and seventies. I remember sitting in his dump truck as a young person, and absolutely cringing because the dryer was close enough to watch the flame and the sound was tremendous. Back in those days the mixing was done in the plant mixer. A part of the plant structure itself. I also helped shovel a whole lot of it. It's amazing how a piece of gravel know bigger than a pencil eraser could make one come out of your boot in seconds. Do you still use AC8 as a binder?

    Does it cost more to dry the material after heavy rains? If so does that cost go to the buyer?

    First I watch a dude sanding cow hooves, then a girl with a pellet gun shooting iguanas, and now I am watching how an asphalt plant works

      RUclips has revolutionized the way we learn things. Plus it is interactive. Kind of makes bricks and mortar educational institutions obsolete. I wish we had RUclips when I was in college.

    Kuldeep Singh ... what the heck is an Asphalt Plant Engineer ? ? ? I never knew colleges offered that kind of degree ! Lol. I just retired from working in asphalt plants for 40 years. The last plant I worked at had 6 silos and was old and wore out and had to be worked on constantly. It's no fun running the plant and loading trucks for 8 - 12 hours a day then having to work on the plant for 1 - 2 or 3 hours so you can run the next day before you can go home. I don't know anybody with a college degree that would ever take a job working 50 - 60 hours a week in an asphalt plant. I hate the thoughts of getting old but I'm not going to miss working in an asphalt plant ! ! !

      In my company, AP Engineer was generally a CE who worked on mix designs and QC issues. It could also be knowledgeable, competent people (like yourself) that were plant managers, head operators, or QC techs. Throughout the country there have been colleges offering CE degrees with Asphalt focus (we had one here in Washington State). It sad when a company doesn’t re-invest its profits back into its equipment and instead rest it’s reputation and profits on the team maintaining the plants.
