    • @DirtAndRocks

      Typically, when we are working with material like that, we are using it as a base layer to stabilize the road bed, or because we are building it to handle heavy traffic. We are always putting a finish layer of something smaller over the top of it, usually something with fines. Large material really doesn't grade well, but the flip side is, it usually is not going to be the finished surface either.

    @elmarty4803 13 днів тому

    One of the things that gets overlooked is the visual cues that allow an operator to kinda eyeball the grade and then come in and fine tune by hand. It can take longer with the hand tools but it gives a little better control at times. At least for the fine tuning. An inexperienced operator can spend a whole day just trying to level out a pad with the bucket when a rake can make it flow faster. And you dont have to be all that perfect....there are some areas where it will be close enough. Not that you want to be shotty but you want to be close and it's not exactly perfect. It is often hard to get exactly perfect off a long stretch. An inch in a long grade is not always a big deal unless you are doing small sections that need the perfection vs the long road or long area that needs to be close within a .3 percent of the actual grade.

    You are a rookie that's for sure! 1st make sure your subgrade is prepped to the proper elevation before putting down rock, then start from the road with your rock and go inward, that way when the next trucks come in they will pack the material as they drive over it! put some stakes in to get your depth for the rock, once you have established a grade on one side grade the the driveway using half of your bucket, one side on the graded side (empty) and the other on the cut side.(go slow) back dragging is for rookies.

      no, the GVWR of the truck is determined at the time the truck is manufactured. I guess you could technically take it to an "approved" outfitter who could make the modifications and re-rate the GVWR, but that seems like an insane amount of trouble for something that might only up your capacity by a few tons. And honestly, I run about a ton under max most of the time because at full weight, material is heaped up too much to suit my liking. I believe you'd be better off just getting a tandem axle truck and getting that capacity up to 12-15 tons that way

    Instead of going through the middle of the pile start from the outside edge and push through then you don't have to hump over pile every time and much more efficiently.leave bucket and in or 2 above level and watch how effective that is pushing material.flat on the reverse grade depending on the size stone.
