In this episode, we visited a landfill south of Phoenix to check out a heavy haul of scrapers in the desert. (aka the middle of nowhere)
We've shown a lot of earth moving on the vlog before, but this time we thought we'd focus on how Rummel Construction moves scrapers from location to location. In this case, they were moving the biggest scrapers of them all... Caterpillar 657 Scrapers… Enjoy! #caterpillar #heavyequipment #construction

Back in 1962, I was the engineer(chief of survey) on a flood control project in CT. We had the original 657B's for moving material---we called them double barrels, aka push pull engines, those were big and from what I see they have grown a lot. We also had the single barrel 631B's to move earth with D-9 as pushers. The 657's also needed pushers to load, we were loading heavy bank run gravel. Retired now and worked construction as a super for over 50yrs and enjoyed every minute---hope you are too. Remember, you need dirt in your veins to love it!!!

Imagine hauling scrapers, D8s and 9s in the 70s from Gila Ben Arizona through tehachapi into the San Joaquin valley.

@DeathHead1358 Год назад

That would've been a sight to see back then, when the truck engine horsepower wars were still going strong. 3408 Cats, 12V92 Detroits, and the KTA 1150 Cummins roaring through straight pipes would've been some sweet music.

@michaelmccaffrey2731 5 месяцев назад

In the 80's I worked for Homer Mann Trucking in California. We moved 666's which were the largest ( definitely larger than 657's) with jeep and 3 axle dolly. Mike Brashier the foreman invented the 3 axle dolly and built them in the yard. We even made a roller plate that the 666 belly pan would hit and move up the jeep neck leaving the front tires of the two axle scraper head suspended in the air. We did this to be able to scale with permits and not have to separate the power tractor head from the pan

@griffoutdoortv5882 Год назад

this really puts into perspective how big those scrapers are its hard to tell sometimes in video!

@jimbeam2705 Год назад

Scrapper school I never had as a heavy equipment operator in the Seabees. But I got to drive a twin engine Cat around the base when it needed maintenance at the PM shop. But we mostly had what was called MRS's . They were a big 4x4 tractor some with cabs ,some without that you could detach from the scrapper and hook up a water tanker behind it.

About 10 years ago Kewit moved 100 pieces of Heavy equipment over Trail Ridge Road in Rocky Moungtain. National Park which is the highest continuous road in the US. The Big Thompson flood had removed 27 miles of road. They had to build a construction road to start building the road.

I used to work next to a trans loading metal recycling place, and they loaded probably 12+ belly scrapers on train cars to haul them somewhere. If I remember right they were loading them with cranes. Pretty interesting to watch.

@topixfromthetropix1674 Год назад

I love the Cozad (Tom Pistacchio) and Murray (Chaz Murray) style trailers with 8 tires per axle. It gives you a 50,000 pound trailer instead of a 70,000 pound trailer. Unfortunate but, the further east you go they do not permit well. We worked about 30 states but in the east, we used 13 axle rigs to carry the same weight freight but the trailers weighed more so permit money is wasted. Tom at Cozad asked me to go to Guam to oversee the movement of a pressure vessel from the Naval base on the east side of Guam to a natural gas field on the north coast. I read that Guam has a lot of body lice in the jungle so I shaved the hair off my head and body. Then John McCain proposed 30 million be taken out of the Guam military budget, Guam puled the permits on the project, and I was left with no job and no hair. (Neither condition was permanent.)

Aaron the federal limits on truck drivers is they can work 14 hours, but they can only be driving for 11. so stops and loading/unloading don't count towards driving. it's a little more nuanced than that but I'm not going to type it out here.

Mobilization for big jobs is critical to a successful project, moving scrapers or big crawler cranes or off road dump trucks is risky by the very nature of the weights involved and making sure the load is center and secured for transportation.

Nice video! I am surprised that they remove the cutting blade for transport. Wouldn’t it be easier to put a couple of heavy wood blocks underneath? Or does that create a height problem?

The pressure that those blocks would be under they'd shatter; if the edge will Damage (they said damage not scratch) the deck it'll obliterate timbers

The cutting edge adds 4 feet of height.
