Ok new driver here but omg get out of the damn trench guy. That bucket will go right through you without stopping. Sorry if that's standard for some but there is a time and place for depth checks.
A trench collapse at even four foot depth can be fatal. Since this is so shallow, they really wouldn't save much time pulling a steel trench shield in a narrower trench.
@@DieselandIron that was nice material you guys were digging up. I’d kill to throw in a monster dip of grizzly long cut wintergreen and grade that shit all day with a JD 755k crawler loader
Holy moly

This is standard digging practice...
Good lord 😂
Why is your trench so wide
Very sandy soil conditions. The trench was dug wide with a wide bench for safety.

I should not have watched this. So many things that are triggering me.
haha! I imagine you're right. This was not a pipe crew by any means. This was an asphalt crew that got stuck installing some storm pipe 😂😂😂
i like the 1.5 to 1 sloping for sand in his trench...
Why aren’t the pipe straight?
The pipe run had to follow the curvature of the parking lot. The guys were building the manholes that connected the runs of pipe.
@@DieselandIron got it. They do look really funky without the structures installed tho
@@jeff7764 it does. We will chalk it up to the crew being drunk 😂😂

@@jeff7764 I can tell you coming from Texas, the dirt up here in Michigan is amazing. If you aren't in pure sand you are in a nice clay mix
