    That Carl guy did a heck of a job. He did better than 90% of the people that fix potholes in the nation. I have travelled the nation and talked to people across it that do this work, that Carl guy was concerned, engaged and amazing. I have no idea what or where this city is; but, love the idea that the city manager actually is learning his city. Every mayor or city manager should have to know what goes in to their most important services. Love the fact this guy bothered to do it. Did he keep his job? Was he any good at it? What happened to this guy?

  • @kirara4953
    @kirara4953 7 років тому +2

    This is quality work, where I live they fix potholes by making bumps, they put so much asphalt in it and don't flatten it that it makes bumps, so when you ride on them it feels like a horse ride jumping all over.

      3. Fix it
      4. Get beer, get hot dogs, and nap

      If it's done correctly with hot mix it should last forsure more than a year, I've seen some Public works use a cold mix which fails very fast especially in a very wet environment

    • @jessiesineath7702
      @jessiesineath7702 2 роки тому

      @@calidream9273 Yeah I work in public works in the midwest. Hot asphalt is the standard but the cold mix crap is used for a temporary fix during the winter. If we load the cold mix in a pro patcher truck like the one used here and actually get the mix hot it does pretty decent if you tamp it down really well like he does here. If you use a hand tamper odds out the hole will be back the next day.

      @brunofunnie 7 років тому +6

      Yeah, agreed, but all in all it extends the asphalt overall life. As the company name says, it's a "patch", later on (10 year later) the idea is resurface the whole track or street. And that patch is small and shallow, here in the "wonderful" city of Manaus at this "amazing" country called Brazil we have huge gaps and deep holes, that are patched the same way. Our mayor likes to play whack-a-hole with potholes :P

    Interesting approach to filling a pothole but doing it the way shown is only a very short term fix.
    If you look carefully at the road surface you will see previous patched areas, surrounded by degraded surface, which will crack away. This creates an "island" patched of previously repaired road.
    You need to cut back to a solid edge and then tack and fill.
