This video, shot by Maine television station WMTW-8, captures a culvert failure and road collapse from an intense spring storm. It's a teaching tool LTAP/TTAP centers utilize.
@@SebastianSteele Ideally it needed concrete around the road to keep the ground dry and stop it from collapsing under the pressure of the water, or just better drainage. Things these days are made so half arsedly without proper future and disaster proofing.
If only Post 10 had have been there a week earlier this may have not happened. His hobby is making sure that culverts are clear and in good working order. Most of the DOTs in New England should write him a check for all of the free work he's done. Let's go Rake!
I think if Post10 inspected the area before the storm, and maybe followed it for a few months he could have made recommendations, but ultimately that culvert was so damaged on the end.... I don't think saving it was an option. I think it needed to be replaced years before this happened. But I'm glad it's fixed now and no one was hurt.
Hahaha that's probably why this popped up on my feed now 😂 last one I watched was him watching a drain collapsing inside and calling all the authorities until someone came and did something. This was crazy to watch though!
I think the water flow was just too hot because if you look at the pipe wanna comes out of the road you can see there is no rust or damage on it so it did not cause the same college just was too much wider
I know! The only thing that I can figure out, is that you have all of that rainwater (and snow melt, when there's melting snow), coming down the side of a Mountain, and the sharper that the angle is, the faster that water's gonna move. When that happens, of course, then any debris that's in the way, is gonna get pushed downhill with the sheer force of the water that's pushing it. When that debris hits and blocks a drainpipe such as this, there ya go -Disaster has struck!
I enjoyed hearing about this via a Post 10 video today. I live in Southern California where water is a big deal. The Kern River cuts through town. And we have has some big washout.
I watched a video of his about a collapsed culvert under a highway. The guy on the news report said that this kind of thing couldn't happen to that one. Lucky they replaced it, but they still screwed up the job. Edit Also it's his hobby that turned into a youtube job.
😄 I kno, right? Although i personally read it like it said: “F___ this noise!! I’m outta here first chance I get!!” Next scene it just lies there sulking, saying “Yeah... talk to me again when u guys FINALLY get yer head outta yer ass, m’kay?”

And this why Post10 is amazing for calling everyone he could think of when he witnessed a culvert collapsing under a super busy highway on/off ramp. Post10 actually investigates, while that stuffy old engineer that belittled him sits in his cozy, clean, dry office and rambles about theoretical stuff. I know who I'd trust to make sure my local drainage system actually works.
@@oldbaldwiseone The problem is that not enough of our taxes are put towards infrastructure, it's the one place local governments love to skimp and save despite the fact that it's the area that needs to most upkeep.
Saw this same thing a couple years ago when the remnants of Tropical Storms Lee and Irene passed through upstate NY. The culvert, guardrails, and about 300' of pavement were less than a year old. And away it went. Just west of Mariaville Lake, to be exact.
This is what they meant when they said: _road work ahead? Well, I sure hope it does!_ I remember being 8 years old and this was an "unrealistic" fear of mine, my parents would tell me "oh that's impossible, there's nothing to worry about"
I was watching the channel getting wider and deeper, and finally said out loud, "So where's the culvert then?" just before it reared up like a gigantic sea creature.
Wow I can't believe I found this clip in my recommended section today. I remember my third-grade computer science teacher use this clip as an example to demonstrate how to insert a video into PowerPoint. Good old memories.
The camera work is close to perfect. it's almost soothing to watch. Quick zooms or travelling, long pauses to let the eye rest and let the viewer assess the situation on their own. Quick chasing of moving objects, pause again. Point, zoom, pause. Move, follow, pause. Perfect.
I was thinking the same thing and had to go look at who's post I was actually watching because I didn't think it was his video. So Post10 you are amazing keep unclogging those drains so stuff like this can be eliminated.
Finally someone who records everything that people want to see instead of just all of the sudden focusing on a passing bird for no apparent reason all the time
Loving all the people thinking this "post 10" person would've somehow saved this road. Now there's a bridge there like there should've been from the beginning.
It's safe to say just looking at this retarded road layout that the local urban planners must know more about angels and miracles than actual hydrology.
I watched this ages ago (I think several years) but I recently was introduced the magnificent Post 10, and this was recommended again 😄 I had a big smile reading all the Post 10 comments, and hope he gets to see them 😊
Alas... he is but one man... Surrounded by over 100s of thousands of defective drains... In a world full of lazy bureaucrats and useless union workers...
@@muhammadfrezaarazak1768 i live 2 miles from it,i never even knew this happened lmao, i used to go down here everyday to see my friends, and i would fish here anf explore, lil kid stuff, but the bridge looks fine now, it doesnt even look like anything ever happened
At 2:44 & 3:52 When Post 10 said how come clean water went in and dirty water came out the other side he was told he should not worry about that and not to go into confined spaces by yourself with out proper training and they will take his statement and look into it at a later date but everything under the road is fine
I have seen and heard of several of these occurrences, and generally not under extreme events. Corrugated metal pipes are particularly prone to getting washed out and turning into giant pretzels downstream. They are light, and tend to float very nicely. It is also fairly common with precast concrete pipe culverts and even a multi-cell insitu reinforced concrete box culvert. If water can find a path down the side of a structure and get out the other end then watch out.
Ya especially with the water holding a mass bigger than the pipes, those pipes break off. This video also shows a really good example of how Newton’s Second Law of Physics (primarily motion) works in the in the world. The force of the water used to break this road apart comes from the mass that the water builds up and the acceleration the water flows as it breaks through the pipe. These factors are so strong that the new tar on this road softened up and broke off .
@@frightenedsoul Indeed ... I'm by no means a civil engineer ... ... but look at the - convenient - cross section of the road, that actual asphalt is, what, only 6-8" thick ...? The rest is just highly compacted earth, which in counties that don't experience heavy rainfall, and flash flooding, kinda makes sense. ... but once the flow finds a way, especially around a - badly maintained - corrugated steel culvert, it's game over, as the soil is literally washed away, undermining the road bed, causing the overlaying asphalt to collapse. Don't quote me on this, but perhaps the on coming infrastructure crisis in the US, and even parts of Canada is that local budgets only allow 'just good enough", without thinking long-term, in the hopes it will last until the next budget rounds, that may allow further improvements ... and even then ... Makes you wonder just how many roads have collapsed, for this exact same reason ...
Oh no! Our roads are collapsing! Who will save us now?! Maintenance Department: *MUAHAHAHA, WE'LL NEVER HELP YOU!* Post 10: *Fear not citizens, for i have come to save all of you!*
I was watching the channel getting wider and deeper, and finally said out loud, "So where's the culvert then?" just before it reared up like a gigantic sea creature.
Eric Bennett I agree He used the zoom button abit to much. What I mean is that I would have loved to see it collapse when he was zoomed out insted of a close view and I think that what Eric Bennett ment to. I guess.
I worked engineering of a county hi-way dept. I would design and size culverts for stream crossings. From what I see here the pipe inlet opening had been compromised resulting in it not carrying the required flow. The storm event may have also been more than the design flow could handle resulting in over-topping of the road which never ends well as the berm erodes very rapidly resulting in undermining of the road. It also shows how easily hydraulic pressure can lift a 15-20,000# culvert like it was balsa wood. I have seen these types of culverts carried many feet downstream.
We had one go near where I live, luckily it was on a dirt road that was only a shortcut that saved about half a mile so there was no critical traffic issue from it. When I came by the culvert was sticking out of the crater in the road vertically.
Sorry that some people actually have professions which require more than giving the basics like you desire . Getting upset that someone gave an in-depth response to this video seems absolutely absurd. You’re getting irritated over nothing you silly boy. “A page of text” how small is your mind that you consider that long... This is just silly and pointless on your part Didn’t even talk about the beam either , so just leave.
@@jul1440 exactly... only so much a rake can do, but have you forgotten that Post 10's arsenal contains more then a rake? he also has BOOTS... and they would be the things that seal the deal for that pipe.
