Paving My Street

- PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU COMMENT:
(1) I was not involved in the paving. I don't work for the company that did the job. I live on that street. The town decided that the 40-year-old street needed to be repaved. I merely recorded the work on video.
(2) This is not an adult documentary. It is not an instructional film. It was not done as a PR piece for either the town or the contractor. It was done for my twin grandsons, who at the time were 4 years old and played construction with trucks and had me read them a picture book about construction -- so I assumed they would be interested.
_________________________
My street got completely re-paved this past week. I'm sure my grandkids would have been excited to see it -- excavators and rollers and dump trucks. And two new vehicles; even I never saw them before: a milling machine and a paving machine. So I took video of the whole process for them. Justin and Sean, this one's for you!

Me and my 6-year-old grandson enjoyed. Thank you, God bless
Thaks for telling me. That is the demographic it was made for: my 4-year-old twin grandsons.
Nice job Dave. It's sweet that you would dedicate this as a lasting memory of you for your grandkids. Well Done Sir....Well Done Indeed.
Stumbled upon this video randomly. You're an awesome grandfather. Can tell you took a lot of time and care to make this.
Thanks, James.
The best entertainment video for boys))) Thanks for that. And for the narrative!
Sir that is a backhoe not an excavator.. but great video
Cool Dave, well done!
And all the millings end back up into the asphalt again also called RAP aka recycled asphalt pavement. And normally they would jackhammer the manholes and catch basins after the milling is done. That is also called a backhoe and normally with a paving machine they would pave right over the manholes and guys would uncover them afterwords. Also they are spraying diesel or bioc on the compacter to keep it from sticking to the the asphalt. Other than that you were right point. Good jobm
It looks to me that only the outside edges of the street were milled not the center where the manholes are. Raising the manhole ring and cover before paving over them gives the final product a much cleaner look.
Dave, ignore all the comments about your use of terminology, incorrect or otherwise, for the machines used, it was a very enjoyable video regardless of what terminology you used! I've been a fan and admirer of construction machinery for most of my life and whether or not someone else who obviously isn't as interested as me uses the correct name for a particular piece of machinery really is of no consequence whatsoever, especially so when it's from someone such as yourself who is clearly just interested in the process and is actually filming it for his grandkids, I hope they enjoyed it too!
Thanks, Daz P. The first one or two bothered me. As Josh kept banging on the subject, I decided to treat it as water off a duck's back. Grandkids loved it. BTW, the terminology was straight out of a kids picture book on construction that I read to them. (The book is old, so the terminology may be outdated.) I wasn't especially worried about the correct terminology because it came from the book. Having been apprised of the real (?) terminology, I'm not sure whether I would have used the real words or the words they are familiar with from the book.
Well i run these machines on a daily basis.... YOU get to sit in the luxury of home and watch what is going on while im laying asphalt on highways that a split second that a death can occur due to drivers...
David H Do you get paid to lay asphalt? If you’re doing it for free, I can understand if you’re cynical. I’m sure Dave has spent the majority of his life working a paid job. So have most others.
I was talking to Josh........ Yes i get paid to lay hotmix.....
@Mike B You are proabley a POG than
Thank you, Dave!
Hi Dave, my husband came across your video. My husband works for this company. Great video.
Great video. Thank you for it.
This is oddly satisfying to watch haha! Thanks for uploading Dave.
Exactly the correct amount of commentary.
I’m from New York and this is the rarest thing you’ll ever see
I assume you mean tearing up a street and repaving it. No, you don't see that very often. NYC streets are just patches for the most part.
In this case, the street was over 40 years old (about half of it 46), and the town decided it had to be done.
its pretty common in chicago
That is deff a backhoe lol
Dirtman707 q
They are referring to the people they are excavators.they are excavating the loose asphalt.
Cheers Dave sir !
I love standing on a freshly rolled mat!
I've done that hard work for a few years, and you sleep good because its back breaking work and being a shovel & broom worker I got in great shape. they paid us 150.00 a day UTT
i bet your arms were in bodybuilding shape after a while lol
👍great video !!!
good video. I can see the process and the steps
Last week my city come this cold milling machine technology 🤖
wow, around here that road would be good for another 20 years as it was.
Our street was so bad that they had to mill it all the way down to the peak gravel, and I was literally 5 feet from where they were paving the street because of where my driveway is. It was an amazing process to Watch. And I have almost all of it on audio. I lost two of my recordings because of my own stupidity. And it has been a while since they pave the street out in front of my house so I’m hoping that they will do that again soon. What was really rare was on that site I saw a Detroit diesel powered chip spreader.
The machine that lays the asphalt actually pushes the dump truck. That way, it doesn't get ahead of things. The dump truck driver keeps a foot on the breaks just enough to keep from running away, but not so much that it can't be pushed
Thanks. I can believe that. Wasn't clear from watching, even in person.
Even seeing in person, it's hard to believe how the truck driver and machine operator act in unison.
Just show's how powerful the equipment is.
JOSH’S TRANSPORT CHANNEL false it does push the truck. I work on a paving crew.
Yes the paver pushes the truck.
@@dog_house875 near me the pavers have a patch on them that locks paver to tip truck. That way it has to be unlatched before truck can leave
can't believe only one second has passed watching this!
Satisfying
The asphalt roller is used for compaction ,,,to get density,,,not to roll it flat....its flat already after it comes out from under the screed of the paver.
Thanks. That makes sense. Though I did notice a micro-change in surface flatness (measurable in cm rather than meters) after the roller went over it.
using a jackhammer with no ear protection, great idea
Huh? Whattttttttttt? Say that again?
He’s already deaf
He’s a professional
He’s got this
Can’t hear youuuu 😂😂 but I guess he was wearing them
No ppe at all
Your video definitely attracted more viewers then you expected.
Absolutely right, Jack. And I'm learning as much as my grandkids in the process.
Well said Daz P, How can anyone expect an individual whose most likely never worked in the industry to know the proper verbiage/terminology the way someone who persay has 5-10 plus years in the industry..
Thanks.
Nice video, Dave, I'm sure your grandkids were interested to see how it's done. I agree, ignore the critical comments from the self-appointed "experts", you explain things nicely. Who cares about obsessive use of "correct" terminology?
Well if he’s trying to teach, dont you think it important to use proper terminology?
Jim, I am usually pretty obsessive about correct terminology. And I agree with Caleb that I should use correct terminology if I'm trying to teach. I may have failed at it this time. In fact, before I made the video I had months of reading to the kids from children's books about construction. I used the terminology from those books, even though it didn't agree with what I had grown up with -- precisely because I wanted to use the correct words and I assumed that their books did have the correct words. Perhaps I should have just gone with my instincts.
In any event, I don't think the kids' education will be permanently damaged. 😊
You can feel vibrating from a roller like earthquake
if you wanna see this in time lapse, change the speed to '2'
Very interesting exercise. Except for the people, it looks like normal speed to the uninitiated -- like me. This is the speed you would sorta' hope thngs go, but they're really much slower.
Nice bro
I like Foley Caterpillar too.
always one gut on the block who has too park in the street.
Skid steer with a mini mill would do wonders for these fellas
Works alote better then a jack hammer
Greetings to the master Yoda
Thank you sir to provide comments :-)
Great vid! If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I’m a highway construction superintendent! Lol
Thanks much for the offer. As you can see, it is now a year and a half in the past. But if more questions come up in the future, I'll remember you. Thanks again.
How did I get from linux tutorials to this?
There is always some excavators on site do to odd jobs and it's a backhoe 🤣🤣
He sounds like yoda but speaking right
What is the roadchewer called again? A milling machine?
roadchewer PE yeah it’s a milling machine
now if we can just keep heavy vehicles off of it we're in good shape for years to come
He is clearly breaking the PPE OSHA Regulation
why do they always mill the interstates and just leave them for weeks or months at a time sux also there is a part of 77 where its uneven pave job and it pulls your front tires
Because your state is retarded
Great video brother. I am an apprentice starting my first asphalt job this week as a laborer, any words of advice or any free tips? Thanks!
Thanks for the compliment. If you are an apprentice, you probably already know far more about it than I do. I spent two days watching the professionals repave the street that I live on. I video'd the activity because my grandsons at the time were always playing with toy Tonka trrucks and excavating equipment. I knew they would enjoy it. But I have no professional knowledge about it.
But if you think this could be a training video in the trade, well just maybe... :) :) :D
As someone that retired from asphalt construction (49 years in the business) you will either like it or hate it... give it a year then decide.
5:19 & 6:26 i hv never seen.... Good useful device..👍🏽
Dave much road can be paved with that size of a crew in that amount of time?
Thanks. I'm willing to believe that. It has been two years now, so I'm not sure of whether the two and a half days included the concrete work on sidewalk, and re-doing every driveway cut. That was done, and the time I cited may have included that work.
Thanks , and your video was very informative about the process. God bless.
why was this narrated by Walt Kowalski from Gran Torino
LMAO, hilarious
Hey Dave, excellent narration on this repaving jb n your street That asphalt mining machine they used t remove the top layer of blacktop must cost a fortune to purchase, own and operate. No?
I would guess so. I have nothing to do with the business; they were just paving the street I live on, and I video'd it for my grandkids. But yeah, the milling machine is huge, heavy, and must cost a fortune.
I agree :-)
Over here in Ireland to purchase a planning machine would be around half a million.
How much all this cost (parts and labor) for a 100ft piece of road ??
Asphalt driveway costs range between $3 and $5 per square foot, while concrete driveways cost between $4 and $15 per square foot.
TheWorstGammer I like those prices 😂
5:03 you use the chute to dump the asphalt out so you do not make a mess
nevermind
How much asphalt does it take to cover a 10 ft wide road half a mile long ?
Robert Mwaniki all depends on the thickness of the mat few hundred tonnes though at least
Robert my friend, it would take 3812 Tons of Hma to pave a road with a width of 10 ft & a length of 2640 ft (0.5 miles) that is if you calculated it with a typical mat thickness of 0.21 ft
length x width divided by 9 x 220 (2 inches) diveded by 2000 = tons. So 2640 x 10 =26400 divided by 9 = 2933.33 x 220 = 645,332.6 divided by 2000 = 322.66 tons. That's how much asphalt it takes to pave a road that is 1/2 mile long by 10 feet wide by 2 inches thick.
How long will this last? 2 years?
In a neighborhood it should meet it’s 7 to 10 year life.
Tony both of you guys are wrong that asphalt can last many many years as long as you keep up with proper asphalt maintenance as in seal coat/ crack fill
Better to get a millhead or have a good operator to mill around it. And jackhammer the reminding alphast around it
Sir, why do we need to wet the asphalt while paving in manhole?
I have no expertise, so the best I can do is guess. A few possible guesses, but I'd like to have someone who actually knows tell us.
Guess#1: Bonding. Many coating of many kinds bond best with a suitable liquid wetting the surface, usually a solvent for the coating. Perhaps we have an asphalt mix that bonds best to a water-coated surface.
Guess #2: Cleaning. Almost everything will bond better to a clean surface than a dirty one. Perhaps it is to clean the surface.
As I said, those are guesses. I'd love to hear an authoritative answer.
Thank you sir!
Wetting the asphalt keeps the hot mix from sticking to the compactor. You can see this better as the rollers have water sprayers that keep the rollers wet.
nice
What did Rodney say? Hey, I can’t hear u.
Hi 950B EX200 forsal 140G moter CaT forsal
Before you paving you have to fix the sub-base material
Erik Griffin only if it NEEDS correction, 80% of the time the designer just calls for mill and resurface. That would be scarifying or reconstructing which they tend to steer from to stay on the positive side of the money pot lol.
Dis they use any tack? I didn’t see it, also the goal of the breakdown roller is compaction not smoothness. There should be a rubber tire roller and an finish making the asphalt compact and smooth
I am a preschool teacher and we are studying roads right now. Can I have your permission to use your footage in this video and do my own voice over it?
Are you planning to use it in its entirety and do a voice-over? Or are you going to use it as a collection of video clips?
Cool video, question ....how many packs a day do you smoke?
Thanks for the compliment. Actually I have never smoked. With age has come a post-nasal drip, and gone is any chance of a "radio voice". When I video something that matters, I try to get someone to do a voice-over, but even then I usually can't. As I said, I made this video for my grandkids, and they are used to listening to me like that.
Dave Tutelman it's not a bad voice sounds like a radio voice:)
Dave Tutelman I think it was very nice of you to do that for ur grandkids. I was wondering when u said so and so works at Caterpillar, which makes sense now. The whole process was interesting. Thanks for the video.
Thanks, Marshall. And thanks about the voice, Jason -- even though I have trouble believing it. :)
No PPE lol. You’d think he’d at least use hearing protection when using the hammer.
Right!
WHAT? WHAT DID YOU SAY?🤣
No hard hats, no safety vests..... great company
Doesn’t matter. It’s an osha thing
They did have vests on
I hated paving city streets. You get all the sidewalk supervisors yappin at ya.
Coach O.? Is that you?
(LSU coach)
How much does something lioe that cost just put if curiosity i live in a private street that has no asphalt or anything dirt road 🤔
I don't remember offhand. This was four years ago. I'm sure I knew that info at one time, but had no reason to keep it.
@@davetutelman thank yoi for sharing this project
@@bebejesisoto, you are most welcome. Glad you enjoyed it.

Wirtgen German Milling... 👍
Bituminous
Oh, sidewalk Superintendent made this video!🤣
Exactly! I have no professional knowledge about this at all. I made the video because my grandchildren (then four years old) liked playing with toy construction vehicles and "reading" picture books about it.
Got them on every job they can get to be a real pain in ass we get them all the time trying to tell us how to do our job just ack like you don't hear them and keep going lmao
In my country, they just pave over the manhole.
For a second I thought the title meant he was going to re-pave the street with his own funds.
Thanks for pointing that out. It was certainly not intended that way, and definitely not the case. But I can see how it might be so interpreted.
Where was the rubber tire roller?
Brinbrin145 145 you cant use that machine on asphalt the rubber tire roller is a dirt roller
Wrong. Rubber tire is exactly what you use. Breakdown roller followed by a rubber tire then a finish roller. 3 steps if done properly. Rubber tire kneads the asphalt like bread getting out any unnecessary air voids to ensure the road gets to the proper density.
Dennis Lawrence That's interesting, I worked for a paving company for 10 years and never saw a tire roller used for blacktop.
It’s called a traffic roller, it has completely threadless rubber wheels in the front and back and helps get the asphalt ready for traffic. It’s done when the asphalt cools a bit, after the vibratory drum rolling.
Dennis Lawrence you use a breakdown roller on intermediate and base asphalt not on the wearing course which is the finished surface.
There's a half million dollar job right there
Cold milling expensive?
Paving directly on the subgrade??? Yeah that’s going to hold up...not.
They put the blacktop on sand. OMG. Thats why it didnt work in the first place. They need riprap.
2.5 DAYS!!! WTF! 😳 That is a one Day job for us!😂
Sorry where are you from
Well half ass work generally goes quickly. I don’t any company that mills, puts down base coat and top coat in same day unless you’re talking about a driveway maybe
Swear you sound like Bernie Sanders 🤷cool video!
Thanks. Sanders and I are exactly the same age, and we both grew up in the outer boroughs of NY City. (Bernie in Brooklyn and me in the Bronx.) And we both went to college at what is now City University. So I guess it's not surprising we might sound alike. I think the similarity ends there, though.
is this edison newjersey
About a half-hour's drive from Edison. This is Ocean Township NJ. It's just off Parkway Exit 102.
nice and neat, not like they doing here in Indonesia, they just put the new layer without scraping the old one, that make the asphalt level higher and higher year after year.. so stupid...
in the uk it would take a week to do all that sigh
I think this was two days. Might have been three, but I don't think so. It was three days elapsed because the crew had to be at another job during the middle day. But two days of work.
Did the Cookie Monster narrate this?
Why can one drive on a new blacktop road right away, yet you have to wait for a few days on a driveway? Color me dumb.
Little Blitz different thicknesses of asphalt and material used in the different applications but usually once its dry your good to go.

Thanks. That's a compliment. If you read the video description, I "taped" it for my grandchildren, who were 4 at the time. So Scooby Doo is just about the right level.
Vibrating Compactor? pretty sure that's a tamper.
Jonathan Schwarz not everyone is familiar with the actual names and terms for construction equipment.
Plate packer
And on the downside - Cracked driveway aprons and busted mailboxes lol
Please bring this to philadelphia. They need help.
Shit day at work for these guys!
Those are Backhoes, not Excavators.
To bad these roads don’t last in Texas Heat. Nothing smoother then a well made blacktop
And so quiet! Our streets heTexas rural dfw Texas is trash tar mixed with little pebbles. Road is so crowned it will break a ball joint if you aint carefull
6:30 😑Please don't spray the asphalt directly with diesel solvent... diesel eats up the asphalt, use water on your tamper or if you most spray a thin film of diesel on the tamper plate. I know you have done it for over 100 years, but it still doesn't make it right. Nuce video
how do you know thats diesel hes spraying? could be just soap and water for all you know
@@ZurkeyTurkey cause i do asphalt and that's what they use.
@@letmefindout81 so do I and some jobs simply dont allow diesel, especially residential paving. We just use soap and water or paveguard when we cant use diesel.
@@letmefindout81 our rubber tires spray dawn dish soap and water you dont need diesel
uhh. buddy, that's a backhoe.
Looks good to much material in wing should be at 45 degree while laying it and dont run the paver empty and come to a slower stop but all In all ok road tec paver is junk
