The audio is messed up. At around 7:06 it starts repeating the audio starting from 5:01, and the correct audio for that part doesn't start until 9:16. Consequently over 2 minutes of audio are missing at the end.
Yes. I didn't think about the fumes. But, when continue to use. They will start to produce plastic pieces in microns. They will mix with air, water, soil. I don't think it's a good idea to use them to construct roads. They should be used at the untouched places.
it's not fixing. it's just a method to dispose of unused tires. tires can be used because they help stabilize the substrate. it's killing 2 birds with 1 stone.
I believe it was Washington State that once decide to grind up old tires into asphalt. They completely ignored the fact that the steel in the tires would rust and produce heat... enough to make the road smolder and melt. Good info but this could be edited a lot better and more concisely.
@@christinalynn8143 : A friend began telling my then 10-year-old son and I about this plan and he said "The roads will burn." He was already aware that this is why there are tire fires in dumps.
@@lrvogt1257 It becomes clear given time, that the tires in the road and on it, not the best idea. Another comment reflected upon the repaving of the road, and the removal, as is difficult. Tires, not the solution, but there are other possibilities. Perhaps. 🤔
Heated asphalt is completely impractal in almost every situation. The building I work at has a heated parking lot. It was installed about 40 years ago when the building belonged to the power company. It uses more electricity to heat the parking lot than it does to power the entire building. Unless you have a lot of money to burn it just isn't worth it in cold climates.
Depends on how it's heated. You can use liquid instead of heating elements. Then either use a heating element to warm the liquid, or use waste heat from the building to heat it. That or a bit of both. You could also argue that the techniques and implementation could be better today than it was 40 years ago. One last thing, would it be cheaper to have someone come by and plow/de-ice? than the electricity used? You can figure in lower insurance rates due to less instances/risk of slip and fall claims, and any number of other situations that could make it worthwhile to keep using it. While it may seem costly on the face of it, it could actually be about the same as alternatives or better.
@@Abdi-uy1kh There are two types that I am aware of, heating element, and water/liquid. Ideally in an under ground system like that you wouldn't want to use just plain water. It would need to have some kind of antifreeze mixture. Yes I know moving water wouldn't freeze easily but it can. Also if power goes out and the water isn't moving it will freeze so you wouldn't want frozen pipes under the driveway because if they bust it would be costly.
i was wondering about how to use old transport truck tires to reinforce bridge piers and supports from river washouts . tires layered around bridge piers and on river banks could be filled with cement and locked together by just the cement or maybe reinforced with lengths of rebar driven into the ground though the openings of the tires . seems to me this would make a heck of a good method to stop flooding damage underneath bridges .
The quality and performance of these geocells are unmatched. They've completely transformed the way we approach stabilization projects. Whether it's reinforcing roads, building retaining walls, or tackling erosion control, these geocells have proven to be incredibly effective. Brands like Basecore and Geoweb, provide us with such outstanding geocell solutions, they’re doing a great job.
Here in the NE we had a lot of freezing and thawing all winter that cause the road beds to swell and shrink which breaks up the bituminous concrete on the roads. How would some of these methods do in our environment?
I think would be a good idea to ad some kind of coating to asphalt to protect it and to give it more cohesion, rubber-like properties, making it more durable and distributing load better giving it more resistence to pressure and weather
3:27 no drip tray and right on to the road.... 3:53 Camerman points out the one triangle that was not repainted Worker gives universal "Who cares..." hand gesture
@@HamguyBacon On the long term they will pollute by definition. Rubber hydrocarbons have sulfur in it, that's required for vulcanization. And there is a lot of additives to make the tires wear resistant, not too flexible, UV-resistant, etc... Some of these elements are part of the hydrocarbon molecules, others are "filling material". So there is a bunch of potential hazardous elements that come free when the hydrocarbons do off gas as you mention. But I guess not that much off gassing will happen, most of the hydrocarbon molecules do not decompose that easy. The rubber will rather fall apart in small fragments (groups of molecules together) that will be absorbed in plants or animals food chain. And so, probably your after after after granddaughter will eat pumpkin soup with a tiny tire taste?
I did some work with heated asphalt drives and walks back in the 80's. The 1980's ;p PS it was deemed not really feasible due to potholes. Maybe new tech can deal with that.
Its about time Honestly nobody ever thought about the waste being generated and it being put to use to reduce pollution of land air environment, Good !its being done.
Plastic slabs as a roadway, well initially it sounds awesome and all that but it will make it even worse since cars will ride over them and small plastic fragments will be ripped off and thrown out in the environment and it becomes even harder to clean it up, if not impossible.
Where I live people protesting tend to burn tires or other material in the road to get attention to their cause. Imagine how much more troublesome it would be if it was plastic roadways.
@@tomkelly8827 I am very much aware of what asphalt is. It does not catch on fire very easily at all. Even with tires burning on the road very minimal damage is seen afterwards.
@@tomkelly8827 it's not, asphalt would not burn, some asphalt have tough plastics in them to change performance characteristics etc but wont burn like a tyre.
so i thought abut putting tires within concrete for under my driveway, not to just cut costs on material, but to also provide a good radiant heat battery, so when winter comes and the sun hits the concrete the heat builds up and the driveway stays heated for longer and that makes for less time you need or eliminate the need to use salt or shoveling the drive way. i got the idea in how an earthship works, these homes hold tempter really well and that radiant heat holds very will. so i wonder if the same radiant heat could work for the same thing when it comes down to having a heated driveway. i think it could work but i think that the tires would need a few columns alongside the driveway to be used as heat holding batteries. the columns are also made up of tires that are filled with sand and compacted with super adobe to create that final finish that holds in the heat.
As a Canadian I look at the heated road skeptically. For a bit of snow at -3c maybe, but in a full snow storm, forget it. Then it may melt a thin layer of the snow ontop of it causing a water hazard. But hay , in limited situations great.
as a Canadian too, I'm skeptical even I dreamed more than once of a similar system, to avoid snow completely you probably should let the system 'on' all winter so.. hiring a Cie to clean your driveway cost less I think .
Obviously it is the material being put down that is being showcased, not the method that one company uses to put it down. Come on man, is it really necessary to have to explain that? It still amazes me how quick people are to post ignorant comments from the seclusion of their computer. We were shown an area no longer than 150 foot that they were treating, which does not require bringing out a trailer with an engine powered sprayer. If they were treating "hundreds of meters", they would obviously not be using garden water cans.
@@VagueMemory that looked like 200 to 500 m^2 to me. I'm bad at estimating, though. When they factor in the time that it takes to prepare and shut down, and then average out the time for a square meter, then I wouldn't be surprised if they took about 2-3 minutes per meter.
there is a machine that can lay brick roads and walkways. i had an idea a few years ago to use something like that but to mix it with a moving glass blocks factory to be used in high sandy deserts, to make desert roads from the glass, made in the factory from the sand :D then i'm like a glass road...no. how about glass walls? or just the bricks but where they are shaped so as to build like enclosed walkways? or aquaduct covers? anyhow thought i'd share it... the only downside i saw to it was potential habitat destruction.
Heated asphalt is only for the rich people - or on very special governmental places were might need this extra safety for either security or because of the estetic reasons. This solution is off course not mention for ordinary roads - due to the high cost of ceeping it heated.
I am wondering if you have any videos of road construction using coco fiber nets or mats as strength enhancement. If you do, could you please post here? Thank you very much
I think coco fiber nets are usually used for stabilizing slopes much like at 5:15 by way of acting like a man-made root system of plants. Eventually, of course, grass and plants would grow and take root and stabilize the slope.
I was waiting for you to say that the geo textile grid was made out of recycled plastic or tires. The tires in the road are brilliant really. That stabilizing agent that was used to keep the dust down, was that a mixture of glue and water? It looked like it. Yes since our roads are tar covered anyways, I am always glad to see garbage go under the road to improve the road while also disposing of a real waste disposal problem. I like seeing places that add plastic to the tar that they use to pave the road. It makes a higher quality road then just straight pavement. I don't see those plastic blocks as a good solution to making roads but walkways and driveways for sure. It is better to make the road out of a long continuous thing to reduce bumps over time. Those individual plastic blocks will tip and make a really rough road unless they are constantly redone.
Asphalt with plastic additive in the tar component is called superpave. It's incredibly hard to work with and impossible if it cools off even a little bit. The quality of the job suffers and the sun & freeze/thaw cycles breaks it down faster. Premature pavement failure has become the norm. It's a good place to hide a landfill right under your tires though. They need to start adding poopy diapers so I can smell that squishing through a paver at 350° F too, ffs! Even breathing in fumes from hot superpave is hazardous.
