- My first time seeing rapid impact compaction (RIC).
RIC is a method of compacting granular material to a depth of up to 15’ by repeatedly whacking the ground with a hydraulic hammer. It’s similar to dynamic compaction.
This project had quite a few of these rigs based on 385’s. They weren’t running any compactors or water trucks like I usually see in the states. I guess there’s no need to when you can do this across the entire site… #hydraulichammer #heavyequipment #shorts

For everyone asking why: Efficient and effective completion of the ground improvement work (RIC), allows for new foundation construction to start earlier than anticipated when compared to other methods. Rapid Impact Compaction transfers energy to the underlying loose granular soils rearranging the particles into a denser formation. The locations of impact are typically located on a grid pattern, with spacing determined by the subsurface conditions and foundation loading and geometry.
Why rapid though wouldn’t one or two good ones be more efficient and effective?
Thank you!
Thanks for taking time to explain
@@dhgzebraa261 I have no experience in compacting soil besides shovel holes but I can tell you that when splitting firewood with a wedges and sledge hammer that hard swings can bounce the wedge back up out of the hole while smaller repetitive strikes will drive it down slow enough to split the wood. Maybe the soil settles better with many impacts vs a mine crater blowing out the sides
Right on, I dig heavy equipment.
If I were an engineer, which I am not.
I would worry about water intrusion.
Maybe the soils transmissivity becomes so low after compaction it negates the problem.
Cool video!
My wife asking dose it have different attachments
Lol. Tell her to give Carlos Castiano a call.
she needs q seismic vibrator, this little guy wont do
Yeah, she would!... 🥴
@@carloscastiano 👏🏾😆
😲
As a union equipment operator I can attest. This looks fun and is for about 4 holes. Then it becomes a job. It gets boring real quick.
But you never actually BORE with it... I'll leave now
Yea seems too much like a real job…..boring , I’ll stick with my digging
Same with rock drills I never napped so much in my life😂
Unions are for slackers. 🤜💥

I bet he hears that in his 😴
His heart just continually beats at that rhythm now 😂
You just need a mix tape with the same beat, then you will not hear that pounding. Lol.
I hate that back up alarms and flashing lights sweating balls and thirsty lol wake up to ur work alarm 😭🤣😂
Rollin in the dough too
He freestyles to the beat

There’s a “your mom” joke in here somewhere
“Ya that’s the way I beef ya mom “💀

Fun work for 2 minutes.
Would get so boring, so fast!
absolutely lol
ALEXANDER👍👍👍😎😎😎⛑️⛑️⛑️⛑️⛑️⛑️⛑️
Seriously, give me an 815, or an 836 instead.
This is my most favorite sound in the world. In person you can feel it to your bones. This is the ultimate square peg round hole scenario.
I'm partial to the 836H's and D8T's at the landfill... The whole ground can shake up and down a ½inch or more at like 40-200Hz.. a lot of beds, couch's, foam padding, uncut tires, cattle, unpopped sports-balls,. Very bouncy stuff.
@@jamesharrell4360 I love feeling the ground shake, being around a vibrating roller machine on gravel is great
@@austint7533 I'm drawn to it almost like a woman on a Harley. 🤣🤣 💡💡 actually... I just got a terrible idea.💡💡
somebody musta been driving one of those down the roads in my town.
So your town has a pothole making machine too,
@@davidhenderson3400 pretty sure we spent good money on it. lol
Yeah mine too...
Everybody gangsta until those heavy machines yelled
*All Hail to Megatron* and *transform*
The guy she tells you not to worry about.
😂best comment yet ☝️
......( he's just a friend from high-school)
You'll say that we live on a ball, so they are making it look like a golf ball
ב''ה, makes it spin faster
Very Clever..very clever one.
It's flat
"Go pound sand". 🤣
One year later, archeologists:
"We found dinosaurs foot prints".
thats really fast actually; love this channel still
Also known as Dynamic compaction. Shockwaves,from the hammer go deep underground and spread wide.
That's what she said too...😅
Ahhh so that's how they make potholes in the road
Must be for a new dinosaur themed park.
Can you feel those vibrations from how far away you're standing?? That thing is so cool
They deff could. Ive already been over 100 yards away from some equipment and you can sometimes feel them through the ground and othertimes feel the pressure wave they create in the air.
It all depends on the ground type really, ive worked on jobs where we feel nothing at 5 meters away but I've been on others where it can be felt as far as 200meters away.
"I'm tired grandpa"
Revirginize soil😂
This is more taking the soil’s virginity though
I was left speechless by the heavy machinery's capabilities.
I was a materials tester for years every summer to put me through school in MT. I’ve never seen this before and I absolutely love it!
Super cool looking
This is awesome. I've always wanted little divets all over my empty field.
You think structures are built anywhere else?
Obviously they go back over it and grade with a dozer 🤣😂 no, wait, this is the future of construction, just everybody watch out for the 75% of the ground that is fluffy and unstable 😆
@@FarmerDrew I'd imagine its for pylons or something similar, hence it being on a grid. Though I am unfamiliar with the next step after this process.
Packing soil in specific spots to place supports on for a building or something, no reason to pack everything.
I love the little road roller in the back.
So that’s what’s causing pot holes all around Salt Lake City
Nah. That dude is in michigan.
Oh shit wudup I’m in Layton lol
I've seen this done in New Mexico and the place is still wavy as hell!
Look at them hoses flip flopping with all those sudden pressure changes.
We should start a go fund me so he can get some spiral guard
I feel like you could organize some sick beats with this and other equipment working together
Some nerd flying over : oh look the aliens draw this holes and they are trying to send us a message !!
I've seen this done with a "thumper". Basically a large lattice boom rig, similar to a crane but dedicated to picking up the weight and dropping it. A semi-spherical disc about 8-10 foot in diameter. Have no idea the weight but had to be close to 10 ton. Made some really large craters
Thats got to be a monotonous job.
Repetitive work with excavators typically is, but its usually so not involved that you can watch youtube or something while you work, this is overseas though so idk
Maybe that task, but heavy equipment operator is TONS of things...
I used to worked on vibrohammers it's a really involved job with feed rate vibration speed and how hard your pushing
@@trevormathews3873 I know lol Im doing a pipe run right now
You're not wrong, but if that guy is unionized, he'll be retiring in his lake front mansion on 60 acres by the age 45 I bet.
This job reminds me of plowing snow with a dump truck. Really cool for about 2 hours. Haha
Can you feel the ground shaking underneath your feet I love that
THAT'S ACTUALLY DINOSAUR TRACKS. 🧐
Talk about passing a compaction test everytime lol
"How potholes are made in my city" 😂
Para quem não sabe. Ele esta fortalecendo o terreno, para uma boa fundação, compactando o solo.
Futuramente não venha a ceder.
Cada furação é intorno de um a dois metros de distância um do outro depende o terreno . Mais a energia de cada batida é equivalente a 2 metro em volta de terra compactada.
More than anything, my reaction to this is one of surprise because of the amount of extra hydraulic fluid and the amount of time it would take to set up all the lines.
It's a purpose built machine. You haul it to the work site, walk out where you need it and pound away in the grid. There is no set up other than that.
The sound of the clock on the wall while being in hell(school)......
Why not just get your mum to do some hopscotch? 😅
“Rapid”
Jeez get some spiral guard dudes needing pipes everyday with that swinging
Was thinking the exact same thing . Won't last very long they will chafe swinging around like that
Like a handful of superhero landings
Ya, and the Egyptians used ramps my ass
Lmao, what?
You can hear these things for miles. When I was in college a few blocks away they were building more dorm buildings and you'd hear this constant banging from around 10-11pm to 6am for a month straight
My dad does the same thing with a block of concrete with a 4x4 handle sticking out of it.
That’s how you attract sand worms.
This make doing breaker work look fast.
Finally, something strong enough to hit my prostate hard.
Very interesting!
If they cut between all those holes they would have a ready made network of grade beams for the pour....
I was a heavy equipment operator for years never saw one of these but from the look of those holes the grader and skidsteer ops must love this guy job security and all
I would love to see a full video with the supervisor of the project explaining the process behind this, and how/why it’s been used. I’m curious if you’re able to put in massive lifts and still get compaction, making it more efficient; or if there are some sort of insane specs they are having to meet. Never seen anything like this, and I have so many questions. Would love to see a full explanation of this procedure!
It's called a set calc, so for a certain number of hits at a specified drop height the dolly(end of the hammer) has to only move a certain amount or less.
For example, if your hitting it at 400mm drop and you have a 3ton hammer then it would only be allowed to move 85mm (or less) into the ground for every 10 hits... its calculated prior to work starting and all depends on hammer weigh, ground type, water table levels and design of the competed areas.
This is the machine responsible for making all the potholes that I DRIVE Thru!
Listen buddy, I've told you 5 times to put that phone away. You're fired 😂
Her: Be quiet!
Me:
"What does this machine do?"
"It makes holes... Try not to look at it funny."
Why is it done far appart from each other? I love the videos btw
Think about a triangle, the tip is the surface area of the circular area of the bell on the machine compacts when compressing material it expands beneath the surface to harder materials filling the voids. If you did it too close together it would destroy already compacted progressions that are made adding voids and cracks that instake water. It's a very loose scientific explanation but exactly what we are taught when utilizing such tools
@@13eckerlosmuerte That actually makes sense, short ofthe lack of punctuation.
@@PhrozenCPU mate, if I focused my life on punctuation I'd have a degree in something by now; but I'm more focused on not killing the underpaid laborer who's life lays between my fingertips and a 130,000lb machine
@@13eckerlosmuerte I get it, but that doesn't change the fact that it makes long paragraphs difficult to read. Hell, I don't have a degree. The machine looks fun though (I like big machinery).
This is like a foundation drill with a tapping head on it.
That's like BIG MIKE giving it to Barry...
Doing this in Florida will open up a sinkhole in the next county over.
At least it's keeping the antlions at bay.
Good way to find caverns!
The ultimate bait for graboids or sand worms
I think this is what they use in Michigan to make the roads worse
Diesel hammers are unbelievably cool. This obviously isn't that but look it up if you haven't seen one. They're used to drive piles which then have footings poured around them. They use the auxiliary winch line to pull the single piston up then drop it. Fuel is injected at the bottom of the fall the explosion pounds the pile in and the piston bounces back out. I swear at times that thing was ready to fly right out the top.
"got to go dig them holes" 🎵
TREVI : Italian excellence
Now that’s something you don’t see everyday
God I don't miss hearing that sound
Man that operator must be bored shitless
Looks like the set of the movie holes
Imagine doing that all day hungover
This is what happens to you when you fall asleep
Me when I get a fresh pack of smokes
That’s like the largest lambs foot compactor
Now that’s a BFH. That’s big fuckin hammer for those that don’t know.
You know, when I was bored I also pounded the ground with a hammer and made the ground compact😂😂😂 I didn't think that there was a heavy equipment that worked like that in the world
Reminds me of the sound an auto extractor in astroneer sounds like
I fuck with the same rhythm
I need this clipped so i can just hear the hammer noise
Was I the only one beat boxing to this clip?
I'd love to see this smash some old beater cars...
Looks like a Friday night at my house
So this is how potholes are made
That looks like my road pothole
What a fun day that looks like
Thought it was a soilmec sr30 for a sec
He really put his foot DOWN!
You need one like in Star Wars that's a quarter mile wide
похоже на дорогу в саратовской области😢
That is why earthquakes are common
