In my college, this video would take a whole 50-minute period, interspersed with personal anecdotes of the teacher's construction work days, and finally, only the correct application of the calculation of the exact forces would be the only thing tested for. And that... Is rather frustrating.
Geotechnical Engineer here - these are great videos. They teach fundamental concepts and are humorous at the same time. People don't forget when they have a good laugh. I loved the truck dumping the "fill" on the culvert/tunnel all at once.
I had to laugh at this!! lol I was the eng. supervisor for many culvert installations over 30 yrs and saw construction crews do everything wrong that you showed here! From dumping on culverts to driving over them before they had enough fill... they did it all. Many times they crushed them and had to replace them at their expense!
Edek Layski if a construction company doesn’t have the expertise to install it correctly, why the hell are they bidding on the job? At the very least send an RFI to the design team to clarify any questions.
@@LichtTempler You've never been on a large earthwork site, have you? Or supervised anyone? You had to try and make yourself superior to the tubedude and only showed how small you are. Not funny and not cool!
build the tunnel wall as you go, this is what tunnel boring machines will do. Even when digging manually (for mines for example) you remove a bit then reinforce the wall then dig further.
A more detailed video would be nice. There are many ways to build tunnels, like blasting, tunnel boring machine, continuous mining, and cut-and-cover, to name just a few.
For sure I like your video very much, in that way can you demonstrate the depth Or zone of influence. Like in tunnel beneath mountain how much stress will be provoke..! Thanku..!
you really should be using a smaller grained material to backfill, based on the size of your model structures, you are effectively backfilling with boulders. Not very realistic, try with aquarium gravel, you may get different results. I for one would be interested to see the results.
0:13 r-o-u-t-e-s is pronounced "roots" or "rutes", and refers to paths. "r-o-u-t-s" is a completely different word which refers to great damage. it's also a woodworking term. and, no, they are NEVER pronounced the same way.
I would review your videos but like you say in plenty of your videos when it's about to get interesting: I don't have time for that here: my excuse is that nobody's watching my grass grow and that's just not right
Short. To the point. Informational. Great style of teaching. Love it!!!

Wasn't it your duty to do not let them do it wrong?
@@LichtTempler exactly what I thought 😂 must be like homer simpson the safety inspector

Now that`s a lot of damage!
This style is really effective. Thanks :)
love this channel, it uses practical examples and formulas to prove it
i don’t see any formulas but okay.
@@kylekern2908 u blind?
Please post more videos it helps to understand the behaviours of the engineering sturcture.
You are actual doing excellence work for those who have no clear concept !
Bundle of thanks from Pakistan🇵🇰
This channel is going to have huge number of subscribers in future
As long as it is free.
@@SheltonDCruz obviously
😂
Finally something i can watch with the grandkids! Thanks for the great video
u r a great teacher I always admire. long time no see u of Waterloo civil engg. 1989 graduate.
1:55 seems legit
0:38 regionova :D
Super video btw.
Very much thanks for these explainations as well as for model...it's a great aid to civil engineering student ✨✨🙆🏻♂️
Using the marbles demonstrated how these sorts of bored holes work VERY well
I am an engineer by training. I love your videos!
But are those problems also present of box shaped tunnels? Overloading and care when backfilling?
Yes
Great series. Are you planning to discuss wells?
Such a great channel.
Thank you, TH-cam Recommendations
i have learned more from your videos than from my school...
Nice. But how does one BUILD a tunnel? I mean, inside a mountain or hill for example, how does one 'now it's safe to remove the soil?
Tunnel boring machine ;)
build the tunnel wall as you go, this is what tunnel boring machines will do.
Even when digging manually (for mines for example) you remove a bit then reinforce the wall then dig further.

If the tunnel collapses then you know it’s unsafe.
I love how engineering principals can be easily demonstrated with marbles and a toy dump truck.
Can you do one about 4th dimensional tunneling?
For sure I like your video very much, in that way can you demonstrate the depth Or zone of influence. Like in tunnel beneath mountain how much stress will be provoke..! Thanku..!

smaller glass beads could work too
Top notch props :D
Can you do a video on the "Guajataca Dam" in Puerto Rico and why did it almost fell apart during Hurricane María?
This video reminded me to check post10's new videos (and beavers)
0:13 r-o-u-t-e-s is pronounced "roots" or "rutes", and refers to paths.
"r-o-u-t-s" is a completely different word which refers to great damage. it's also a woodworking term.

Cute truck 🚜
What if a round form had a box frame inside it?
Good demonstration
I love that the video doesn't treat me like a stupid being... My teachers on the other hand...
THAT is why you build half round culverts!!!
Good grade school level video.
I'm gonna need a lot more information. Maybe something on the area of the tunnel and displacement of air in relation to external forces.
I would review your videos but like you say in plenty of your videos when it's about to get interesting: I don't have time for that here: my excuse is that nobody's watching my grass grow and that's just not right
1:56, that dude is gonna lose his job
Respected sir,
kindly Upload video on truss
great , thanks
ROTFL @ Dump truck ballistics
I thought those marbles are tiny minions
LOL this video made me laugh, thanks 1:55
Noice now I go make tunnel.
Press 6 Repeatedly and you will learn about adult life :)

at first i thought those are bananas
Please make irrigation engineering models sir. I'm useless person and waste

TH-cam again
don't know why i clicked on this video, it's so obvious that it's not informational, and so short that it's not entertaining.
Says 'people' then 'animals', thus making having said 'people' redundant immediately.
Go to bed.
2 minutes? I guess it is good for grade school...... or a smartphone.
🙄🙄🙄...
TERRIFIC!
