Installing the Culvert Extension with Backhoe
At 12:15 in
UPS truck almost flipped over in my DRIVEWAY!
What happens here
With the area prepared, the new culvert pipe section is installed. The presenter, assisted by 'Daddy Stoney Ridge,' positions the TYM backhoe. Two yellow lifting straps are secured around the new 4-foot culvert pipe, and the backhoe bucket hooks onto the straps. The backhoe then carefully lifts the heavy concrete pipe. The operator, guided by his helper, precisely maneuvers the pipe into the excavated trench and aligns it with the existing culvert pipe. The backhoe bucket is used to gently push the pipes together, ensuring a snug fit between the male and female ends. Additional manual shoveling is performed to finalize the placement and prepare for backfilling, though the backfilling itself is not shown in detail.
Goal: Connect the new culvert pipe section to the existing one.
