A master truck driver would drive at a low speed with the tailgate open and tray upright and evenly distribute the rocks like a boss with less need for a grader.
Thanks for showing us how NOT to grade out a new roadway. The trucks should be dumped closer to the roadway. So that the piles slightly overlap the previous work. Then the road grader should work on the high side. Using the already finished roadway as a referance. Use the angle of the blade to catch more, push, or slide off the work material as needed. Once you establish your grade. It's easy to maintain it. Work the grader up and then down the road. Cutting and grading enough so you don't have material bleed from the end of your blade. Doing it this way, you will not only achieve the proper grade on first cut. But the surface will be compacted and the tires of the grader will not sink into the material. You could also have a vibratory roller working next to you. Saving a lot of time. IUOE Local 15 (38 years) Retired.
I guess they also have a grudge against using a spreader box or trucks setting chains on the tailgates. Since that would also lay more even and wouldn't loose your grade as easy as they way they are doing
Yep. Probably needs to have piles like that since the drivers can't/won't spread. Good drivers could spread their gravel, the blade would only have to touch the material once.
Also, they are not using a major feature of the grader. Articulation allows the front wheels to remain on the adjacent finished grade and the tandems pushing behind the piles. Matching finished grade in one pass. Less wear and tear on the machine and less fuel. The operator doesn’t know how to articulate even for a turnaround. He needs a lesson! This is a terrible example of grading best practice.
Motor Graders are a good leveling and grading tool. There is, however, a variation on the asphalt layer that can do this job far more efficiently. It can lay a roadbed foundation or sub-roadbed filler very quickly and more efficiently than even a Motor Grader can. They have been using such a machine for laying highways in my local area for the past several years. Very efficient, and grades the material to be placed as it travels, requires many more dump trucks than seen in this video in order to operate smoothly.
Im no equipment operator, but it looks like he did a great job, interesting to see all the photographers and vodeographers, with drones, got a kick out of the to dump trucks trying to pass each other, thank you for posting and sharing i enjoyed watching!
Probably a stupid question, but why not have the truck drivers pull up while dumping so you don't have the huge piles to chop down before you can start smoothing it out?
Probably because it would not leave enough material. If the dump were spaced out your suggestion would make a lot of sens but the dump are very close because they want a thick layer.
I always here comments about a blade operator being Really Good! Folks who never operated one just don't realize that they a built for the work! So being impressed so easily, is like being amazed that a Horse.. can Run!
I could list quite a few problems with how this is being done. As a 25 year veteran in construction, there are a LOT of things being done wrong. Doing an import job like this where you're hauling in whatever materials to be spread out, you do it as if you're painting the road. The trucks need to spread the loads out better. Meaning when they dump, they should pull forward slowly and not allow it to be in such a big pile. Where I'm from, you should be using belly dumps for this. The truck pulls alongside the existing windrow and begins his dump, then the next truck ties on, and so on. All the blade has to do is carry the windrow across at the same grade until the ribbon is completed. Then do the same thing until you get completely across the fill. This is definitely a lesson in how NOT to build a road.
To all the safety and “here’s what’s wrong with how they’re doing this job” comments. This is how a big part of the world gets by, for better or for worse, but overall the job gets done. So take a deep breath and appreciate the fact that in developing countries, they’re learning and getting it done.
When I first started watching the video, I to noticed it was some country doing the best they can with the equipment they have. Not every country has the equipment to lay asphalt like the US or most parts of Europe has. Some countries, just have to dump and spread then hope for the best. Given the task done with that equipment, it may not be perfect but it will be good enoough.
My first reaction was that this operation should have been using a spreader box not a motor grader to reduce segregation of the ABC. But by the end of the video I was impressed at how well the base course looked. The only issue I have now is the loose thickness of the layer (well over 5") and whether they will be able to obtain optimum moisture and density on the roadway, critical for a durable substrate on which the pavement will be constructed.
Likely not. Base course should have been built up in 50mm layers and rolled and watered throughout. I'd hate to see what the density test comes out at.
Great video! It brought out all of the has been and wanna be’s commenters. There is a vicious unity in attacking what someone else is doing their way and not your way. . The video never raises any method controversies. But the comment army has shown all of these crafts their supposed errors. I am sure this film was just to show a road crew doing their jobs. I enjoyed watching this work
I love how the cars and trucks and motorcycles all keep on going with the grader working and there is no flag personS around! Talk about managed chaos! I wish north america construction / traffic flow was like this! (yes, need to drive slow around construction sites!)
If the guys tipping were better at their job, the grader wouldn't have to do so much work. I was a truck driver on road construction and we would have got our arse kicked for tipping like that.
Not bad, but not good either. First, it's a motor grader not a dozer so take that stupid mold board off the push block so you can see what your tires are about to drive on. Secondly, the first pass was a wasted pass, and on the wrong side of the piles to boot. Crab out and get those front tires on flat ground. Pull a finish windrow on to your existing base course first. It will be the last thing you bring across. Next, use the full mold board. The second pass he was toed in, but his heal was in the air; nothing good comes of that. Honestly, too much wrong to cover. I'm not trying to be mean, if you want to survive on the blade you have to do better than this
Where I am the traffic authorities would shit themselves seeing something like this: zero traffic management, not a single high viz, random people flying drones running around in flip-flops on construction site, and even the dog is there! 😄 Here in NZ we get 1200 orange cones laid out on the road on Friday, before anything even looks to start on Wednesday next week let alone have any actual work done 😆
This was done 2 months, 29 days, 23 hours, and 40 minutes faster than the same job would have taken in Michigan. It's good to not have government and unions slowing down progress!
I heard dove deoderant supplied all B/O needs for drivers and operators as well as carepackages of flips flops as opposed to steel toed boots no animals or animals were hurt during the making of this video
Maybe if the truck drivers tail gating the gravel instead of dumping it all at once you will get the road surfaced sooner and less grading from the grader
If this was New Zealand there’d be a million cones and the traffic would be backed up in both directions by stop/go control and a 30kph speed limit. And it would take a month to do what these guys have done in an afternoon.
OMG!!!…..I can’t even enjoy watching the work for the Dangerous scenario of construction work going Right in the midst of pedestrians coming and going!….like where is this?! And where is OSHA?!
with that many drones in the air you need a air traffic control tower, and now I understand why there are so many construction videos in my feed, everyone is trying to get on that band wagon :(
Painful to watch!! The grader guy knew what he was doing ! But the rest were rubbish! Too many flip flops!!! And they made hard work for the grader operator! Spread the loads out for him ! Tip truck and move forward as doing it , ! Painful watching
1) Worker walking out into traffic from behind a dump truck to release tail gate latches. Dangerous. 2) Absolutely no traffic control. Vehicles driving in both directions on both sides of road. Dangerous. 3) Dumping loads in huge piles instead of dump spreading to reduce grading time and stress on grader. Inefficient. 4) 13:50 Grader angling blade so material is pushed back onto the pile instead of into empty roadway. Inefficient. 5) 15:43 Pushing the same stone down slope that you just finished pushing up slope Inefficient 6) Multiple drones and pilots, so there is that.
Skill?? No.. more like lack of equipment.. just getting it done. Anyone that has ran a grader knows you can't raise the blade as fast as the machine will fall. So that means it's the wrong tool for the job. A scraper would make short work of that. That's the tool that should be used.

No idea of how to run it out. They wouldn't get a job building roads in Australia.
Lap the loads on the previous grade, runout high ,water, roll ,cut ,roll, water ,trim ,roll ,re cut if needed.do it all day

Probably a stupid question, but why not have the truck drivers pull up while dumping so you don't have the huge piles to chop down before you can start smoothing it out?
Possibly because they are long beds, and raising while loaded can make them unstable. Lots of U Tube vids of loaded trailers tipping.
@@tomrogers9467 Dump trucks in the US haul and dump 18ton like that regularly even on hillsides with long beds, but I guess anything's possible.
Could be they aren't able to drive and change the bed lift angle at the same time. Older dump trucks around here can only do one action at a time.
Probably because it would not leave enough material. If the dump were spaced out your suggestion would make a lot of sens but the dump are very close because they want a thick layer.
Doesn’t seem to be having a problem the way they are doing it at all
Why not spread with the dump trucks?
Yeah what a waste of time
Just made hard work for themselves. Even a child would know to tail spreed the load. Having said that I didn’t see any chains.
Thanks for showing us the slow and wrong way to grade.
Maybe this one is not slow for you

And no-one had safety boots on !!! And where are the rollers ?? Here the unions would have declared that job black !! Greetings from Australia
Don't criticize. 8 months ago, before they finally got a grader, there were 124 kelings out there with British army surplus shovels.
Good point.
And not an Engineer or Traffic Controller or any signs in sight. Just how the job can / should be done! Excellent Operator.
Which is the reason why roads in India are in such bad condition and why so many deaths occur.
This operator sucks !
Smh
Don’t your truck drivers know how to tailgate a load? What a waste of labor.
the best part is no traffic controllers. They expect the public to figure it out on their own.
Are they using ground up asphalt as the base?

Bulldozers after the dump trucks, Graders are the finishing passes...
Not if you don't own a bulldozer.
Last 2 minutes of the video, "operator" was like: oh yeah, this thing has a blade on the front.
Waot! You forgot to spray the penetrationg primer before you dumped the asphalt, now it all has to come up.
But they do not have any penetrating (or "penetrationg" as you put it )primer. Kinda like you not having spellcheck.

The safety concern is amazing.
a good tipper driver would run a 200mm layer straight out whilst constantly tipping by keeping the backdoor nearly shut and secured with chains.
