New technology - no levelling, no grading, no compaction. Throw loose fill into a swamp, yeah that's something unique.

Yeah it's like the corduroy road in the United States great black swamp. They would use a layer of whatever logs and brush they cut down for the path as the first layer. Road builders would then fill with rock and dirt for a layer then logs and brush. Finally putting down just logs and dirt to make a top layer.

It actually makes sense. I worked with Civil Engineers when I was younger. Roads, bridges, dams, etc. I also operate heavy equipment. They are basically backfilling a lake marsh. The first layer of fill needs to be super thick/deep so heavy equipment can operate on it. They can't do 6" lifts and compaction like on dry land. Also, this is just a fill layer. So as for leveling and grading, the bulldozer is equiped with computers that help the operator make a nice rough grade and keep things level. Even without computers, a skilled operator can rough grade and level just by eye if a reference point exists. Since water is a natural level, the operator can simply use the waterline as a reference point.

How else can it be done faster? Only room for 1 bulldozer

They could use half as many trucks and they’d still be waiting at their pace!

The road to success is always under construction.

thats a lot of diesel fuel being burnt waiting to dump.

I started over 50 yrs ago, new tech? The only thing new is the equipment, we did it the same way, a heaven lift over unstable ground, this guy is doing good, a heavy lift to cover rocks. This is new tech? We used fabric over unsuitable to keep the mud from penetrating the fill.

'New Road Technology' The Romans built better roads!!!

We normally have the truck dump the load behind a d6 have the blade raised and when the truck is were we won't it drop the blade and then reverse over the pile if all goes well it take three pushes sometimes for one down the center and two either side and the the next truck would come we would build.on avarge about 150 to 200 meters with 8 leggers and if we had a fleet of dump trucks we could pump out 300meters a day

The bulldozer shouldn't do this WAY ...! YOU SHOULD DO IT SIDE BY SIDE ...! ITS JUST WAITING ...AND WASTING TIME ...! THIS NEW ROAD CAN DO TWO LANE ...MORE THAN ENOUGH FOR THE TRUCK TO RELOAD AND PAST BY ...!!! I use to do that way ...no problem ...!

This is extremely inefficient as too many trucks are full, and waiting. double the road width, and dump two trucks at a time

They should dump left right left right ..constant dozer movement constant dumping

So they fill over all the organics? No road fabric? curious to see how it holds up

No lifts, no compaction, the short life of a road. To be redone again if a few years.

Step 1... dump 2 meters of questionable fill on water saturated soils. Step 2 push fill with dozer ahead of dump trucks. Step 3 repeat. Step 4 repair for next 50 years. We would construct drainage well ahead of grading. 6 inch lifts of screened fill with compaction between every lift. We would even use laser levels to make sure we were at right grade. Trucks dump, dozers push, road graders grade, and compactors compact. Handheld density devices used often, because who wants to take out bad fill. The worse the site, the better job done. Never want to go back to that swamp.

It's a pretty good example of efficient wetland destruction with no thought of the long term impacts. And people wonder why all the flooding and climate change.... Never mind that with zero engineering, this won't last - two fails in one compact video....

Not very efficient. The dozer stops for the truck to dump and the truck drivers are so slow. They could unlatch there gates while they are waiting (or the guy standing at the back of the truck could do it) insted, all production stops as the driver makes the slowest walk around the truck? A truck could be dumping on one side while the dozer works then next truck the other side.

great comment but actually top gear would just back the haul trucks up to the edge and " just a bit farther" to go faster no need for the bulldozer

I hope it's only a temporary access road...

Inefficient as heel too, dump a load on the right, dump a load on the left. The dozer alternates which load to push you copuld move dirt soo much faster. I hope the zig zag is because you are following a ridge of bedrock? even then the road isn't going to last.

very good

so someone found a way to destroy wetlands faster......I'm impressed....

good job

I don't think anything I saw here really qualifies as "new technology."

there are no topographical layouts, the curves do not have a defined radius. It is a temporary route to access a place with trucks

At 13:00 the truck made a 3-point turn instead of 1 May be a problem with the right hand mirror either way it did not affect construction at all

Thats NO technology in that road, just a long stretch of waste rock from the mining in the background…..nothing to see here, most of that wasteland swap will be full in a year

There's nothing new about that technology. It's just basic road building.

We have been building roads like this for years.. its not new.. and most of our dozers have laser leveling so it's as perfect as it can be.. this is not new....

Yeah it may be new technology for those who are used to building things by hand. That technology is decidedly not new my friend. Roads built in swampy areas need a large and very thick road bead made our of crushed shale or granite at least three feet thick minimum. Then you push your gravel, sand a other sized rock on top of that bed, and then compact it with a vibrating heavy roller. I don't recognize those trucks, so I am assuming this is taking place in a third world country, where they think anything other than a shovel is, "NEW" !!!

Larger stones fall at the foot of the embankment and when they are covered with gravel they increase the bearing capacity of the layer

And HELPED BUILD MANY MILES OF ROAD NOTHING NEW HERE LOL

What's "new" about this? Been doing this for 35 years, pretty sure the Romans applied this method as well!

And yeah we won't bother with 6 inch lifts

Interesting to see swamp turning into a road

А почему нет дренажной трубу , так будет болото .

Ten trucks waiting in line: bad management. After 20 min. No mor trucks => Caterpillar waiting. No compactor..

I love the smell of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. It is the smell of death.

Not seeing any new technology. What I'm seeing is badly laid loose fill that is not being properly compacted. Quite an operation though not very efficient with all those dump trucks backed up and only one dozer.

I had to stop watching this insanity.

This has to be china.....

Am I alone in this has a "bury Jimmy Hoffa here" vibe, open space middle of nowhere, not a lot of traffic, or extra eyes on the actual job site. How hard would it be to put a fella in the bushes and then goodbye mr whoever?

Not straight to minimize fill. Fill not done in lifts and compacted. You can see the water around the edges squeezing out of the virgin ground that is probably the consistency of wet compost. In 5 years they will be doing this again unless it is just something they are throwing in for a cofferdam to help dry out the real construction site downstream? Even then there are no compactors in site, without that it is all going to saturate a blow out in the next few monsoons......with it it might lasy long enough to get the permanent job done. Heck if they are just throwing away construction waste in a creative manner, they could doo far better than this......

Where is the new technology?

It could be new road building tech if we were in ancient Rome.... But, what should I expect from click baiters....
