Discussing Inter-Contractor Responsibility

wasn't the G no I know but now now some of you guys may be thinking to yourself well why didn't you stop them well because one subcontractor's job is not to stop another subcontractor's job that's not what we're supposed to do when we show up to a commercial job site our job is to install the project according to the specs as laid out in the blueprint plan that would be no different if a plumbing contractor came into building into a building and then decided that they needed to stop the roofing contractor's work they couldn't do that that's not what we're there to do our job is to do the job according to spec and right here you can see that roller Packer running right behind our retaining wall and then this is where things start to get messy H YouTube now according to those specs I read you this machine should not be back here and the wheel machine that's loading this machine should not be within 10 ft of the backside of this r maining wall but then how is the asphalt contractor supposed to complete their portion of the work if they're not allowed to get their equipment behind the retaining wall why was it even designed like this in the first place is where I start was the questions that I start to get led to now here's the thing this is not the first time I've had this almost exact situation happened and in fact in just a few moments we're going to go out to another site where this almost exact occurrence happened but the general contractor decided to blame me for it and I'm going to show you the job I'm going to tell you how that conversation went but when the general contractor blamed me for the failure he also threatened to sue me I had finished this retaining wall that you see behind me almost 20 maybe 25 years ago and by sheer coincidence I was driving by the job site and right down the road when I looked in to see how my project was doing because the project wasn't done my portion of the project was done I was off from the job I noticed the asphalt contractor doing their job and their job was to lay asphalt directly behind the backside of my retaining wall just like you're seeing in today's video and I pulled up and I parked instantly right about here because what I seen was the asphalt guy was using a dual drum roller to compact the asphalt the problem is is you're not supposed to be within 3 ft of the backside of a retaining wall with any kind of compaction equipment as we're looking you can see where the entire thing has shifted now I was really…
