Exposing the Flagpole Foundation and Identifying Flaws

pole all stays in place all right so we're trying to get some of this mulch out of the way and we've basically dug down 10 in yeah at least 10 in worth of mulch in here and and a Pap thing around that around their flag pill bugs pouring out of there no they put a base under it yeah a little bit little bit of a base oh hey look at you big boy come on Sam's save the Frog program uh you're that much below the cap top of the cap I was hoping for a little lower cuz I got a 10 estimated wall here not a 44 but the way they did this when I measured it I thought it was a block sticking out of the like like the second block but you know is it level yeah so we want to go with top of the we want to get it we can go a little lower than that I suppose so if we got 6 in [Music] Buried end up with a 4T wall what was that 4 locking a tried to do if we did a 3 10 wall burying a full block this is where we'd be so we' be uh couple inches lower than that sidewalk you know the the c meeting up with the same elevation as the sidewalk Yeah Yeah well yeah but that doesn't so it's a goofy height for our for our block all right so we were digging trying to find bottom of the mulch and we found that they have it tied in with cabling and holding the wall up it's probably why this side hasn't destabilized now we're kind of just trying to find bottom of this flag pole here yeah I thinking this would be deeper but I don't know that it is this is really uh tied into some kind of metal plate you never know what people do before you get here you know no that's [Music] first yeah that that's that's running right into that well we start on that other side then and leave this for now got to do something Goofy with this flag pole well it's got to be 4 feet Le they'd go beneath the frost L yeah but if you go 4 ft that still kind of gets us down into our [Music] wall oh that's just an IH hook right there we could put a wrench on that and bust that right off well it's just tied into this uh this block is all I just you know I don't know if this is not very deep and then they just anchor it with a certain amount of weight I don't know I've never put in a flag pole or really worked the flag PS that's the bottom of [Music] it that never worked for flag P bottom well it could be not the bottom it could be there cuz they're just anchoring it with a clevis right there so we could easily take that out [Music] but you think the flag pull and the wall went in at the same time possibly proba yeah they…
