- Quick video of installing a 36" culvert pipe for the stream that will go though the driveway. Also using our Kubota KX40 Exavator and John Deere 350 dozer to spread the surge rock out.

That's a huge amount of rock to buy. One of the things that I've been noticing from watching "Let's Dig" is that he always seems to have a digging and a fill job lined up simultaneously.
So cool with the fast motion! Thanks!!
I like it too, As a video that in real time is a half/ whole day gets cut down to a few minutes. Thanks fo watching and taking the time to leave us a comment.
From my Fluid Mechanics and Hydrology classes I learned that an optimal practice would be to flare the upstream side of the culvert pipe to make sure that the flow lines never get separated from the pipe surface. This would only be important in case of heavy rain situations, but those are the ones where a stream can erode away a driveway or road.
The water flows left to right. We just had almost 6" of rain in a short time period and everything held up well. Don't even think the 24" pipe was over the halfway point within the pipe at its peak flow. I' m sure some of the water worked its way though the rock as it was clean rock.
Excellent!
I guess your fluid mechanics and hydrology class said this won't work. I guess it won't work because it said it won't In your book right?
This reminds me of when they put my 48 in pipe in for my driveway culvert. They kept scraping off the top and pushing it up the drive... the next load of rock, the truck collapsed the pipe because they hadn't left enough compacted rock on top and it couldn't support the weight.
That's sucks. That also a pretty big pipe and there's definitely difference levels or thicknesses of pipe out there. This one is still holding up just fine with 9 concrete trucks carrying 10 yards of concrete plus a handful of 22-24 ton trucks filled with stone.
Just wondering is there some calculation that is used for installing culverts....Depth, cover, thickness of culvert etc. I plan on installing two culverts on my property....
Love the 350 dozer. I have a 450c I do side jobs with. Tough machines.
Ya the 350 is good but for some of the jobs it would be nice to have a wee bit more power and weight.
I have a 450 c and love it. Very strong and dependable machines.
Good job. I will use base or crush and run on my job. It packs better and less expensive.
Such a nice thing to do. To bad its so expensive.
i was looking up subbie stuff and here i am
nice work!
cool little dozer
Broken Bolt Bobcat Shop an oldy but a goody.
great job
I need a culvert so guess I'm buying one and renting a dozer. Might make a nice video to my channel.
good job bulldozer mini working :)
Cool video , ty for entertainment
You're welcome, Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave us a comment.
Nice job
Thanks
Might want to invest in some ditches. Save your investment in Rock.
Nice!
Seems like you your dozer blade solid stone doesn’t go over in front of the pipe. Go down the middle then angle the blade so it runs off towards the middle. Can adjust to how much runs off to the shoulder. I mean no big deal. maybe you want a little stone in the ditch?.
Nice job never seen anyone use rip rap. Or maybe size of rock is different where ur at. That would be 700$/a ld here. I use like #1s. Looks awesome though
Dave Stinson It's like rip rap. It's called surge here which is 6" rock maybe a few bigger ones all the way down to fines. It's the first run off the crusher before it gets sorted. It does look nice, and it locks in pretty good with the fines in it. The more you push it around the more fines Come to the top.
A load like that where i am is bout 200 canadian $, nice driveway !
Must have a big secondary crusher where you get it. Surge here is 4" minus, nothing bigger than 5" and we have some pretty big secondary and tertiary crushers
@@jtonguam The quarry I worked at the surge was 6" minus. Goes through the primary (gyratory crusher) then through a 6 foot Simons cone crusher, we called "the deister". the screens we used used were 1 inch plate steel with 6" holes cut into it. I spent many hours with a torch back in those days lol Then it went on to the surge pile. We sorted rip rap at the deister I guess it all depends on the mine youre at
Is this a driveway for forestal purpose?
A driveway for a house
I never knew this an civil engineer told me before you put the culvert in the ground you need to lay down stone first,wouldn't that let water underneath it?
Why not have some finer material under and around the pipe? And probably could use more material on top of the pipe before driving over with machinery
Surge is a mix. Its dust up to about 6" or so. There is about a foot or better on top of the pipe. Have had a hand full of logging trucks and 5 more 22-24 ton trucks with rock and 3 cement trucks with 10 yards in them over it without a problem.
Im wondering about the material cause my project manager (work at road construction) gets furious if anything that's within 20cm of the pipes we put on our roads has rocks bigger than 2,5cm roughly. He apparently has had some fun times with putting down pipes and they damage the pipe to such extent that they have to dig it up and replace it. (The government group that monitors/maintains the roads here are extremely strict and picky) I have had the ''pleasure'' of listening to the speech he gives when he finds a rock like that more than once.
Also before even our pickups (Hilux and similar size) are allowed to drive over it needs to have 30cm layer, and before machines that weigh over 10 tons are allowed it needs to be 1 meter or more.
Fenrir It's possible to have a rock be a pressure point and damage the pipe. The trucks are rolling over it and not parking on top of it. Which could happen on a roadway. Also on a main roadway I'm sure there are a few people driving around overloaded. This is a driveway for one house so once construction is complete there will be rarely something bigger than a personal car or truck driving down it.
At 2:50 Did you happen to dent the pipe with the weight of the digger !!!!
No new dents/ bends.We bought the pipe used from a local construction company and it had a few dings in it.
Yeah...flat as a pancake
What year is the dozer? I have a 350 case.
I want to say a it's 1974. It's a John Deere 350b.
Thanks for the replay
Ted Ohio No problem, Thanks for watching.
What material did you use?
We used what they call Surge. It starts off a 6" rock and goes all the way down to fines.
I hope that somebody empty the pipe of stones :-)
How long is the pipe anyways?
It is 24" around and 24" long.
Should have put a compactible material around the culvert that big number 2 lime stone does not compact good enough to support the culvert! Sorry experience speaking!
What we used was called surge so its 5-6" max all the way down to fines. So the fines seem to find there way down into/ though the larger rock and lock it in place and it has packed it there pretty well. The covert is sitting a top rock/ ledge so it can't sink or go lower. Its been over a year and its had 6-8 or so trucks of stone go over it and about the same amount of fully loaded concrete trucks. I guess time will tell.
OK I see what you’re saying in the video you do not see any fine material, and you need a fine material around that culvert to help lock it in and protect it! Thanks for the reply keep up the good work!!
@@boward6686 From this camera angle its hard to see whats really being used. I got to find some time to edit some more videos and get them posted. I'm sure there's another camera angle or closer up recorded on my phone which would show/ have me talking about what we used. No problem, Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave us a comment. We will. Hopefully I can get some time soon to edit some videos and catch the videos up to where we are at with the house. Hard part is now that its under cover even if its raining I can be over there doing something.
Thanks again for the reply I like watching other people do this type of work sometimes you can still learn something, I am third generation excavating contractor, my grandfather and my dad started our company in 1951 still going strong here in West central Ohio, I had 2 really good teachers to learn from enjoy passing along knowledge not criticism! Good luck be safe!
@@boward6686 No problem. I'm the same way there is always someone out there that has a different way of doing it or more experience which maybe be faster or just a better option in some cases. That's good to hear your on the third generation and every things going good. I think its something like only 30% of businesses survive into the 2nd generation and an 12% make it to the third and for the 4th generation only 3%. Having a good teacher in anything makes the difference. Same to you.
whats up with having no sound
There's no sound as it's a time lapse video and not a video In fast forward
Aint big enough, long enough, or deep enough. (I'm speaking from bad experience.)
That's What She Said
ike fun ain’t what I want, it needs sufficient cover not to crush
Wow that's crazy
And a lot of water will go through that material instead of through the pipe! Should have had stone of concrete walls at each end also. They'll be using a Lot of that material to make this work. This looks like The Amateur Hour to me, but what do I know?
,
Why not plastic pipe? That metal pipping corrodes !!!
If I was doing it from scratch I would have went with plastic. I used the pipe that was there and readjusted it to work so i didn't have to jump though a bunch of hoops to make it across. Yes the pipe does corrode eventually it depends on the water. There is one up stream that has been the 25 years and by looking you wouldn't know.
