Discovery Channel Man Made Marvels Kuala Lumpur Flood Control 3/4

Discovery Channel Man Made Marvels Kuala Lumpur Flood Control 3/4
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia's Capital, is under siege from flash floods, powerful forces of nature that bring the city to its knees. The source: severe thunderstorms that pound the city for months on end. But Kuala Lumpur is fighting back. A daring construction project will try to bring the mighty floods under control. Massive floodgates across three rivers; six kilometres of canals; giant storage ponds and a state of the art storm water tunnel that doubles as an underground highway. It's a combination that has never been attempted before. If they can pull it off, Kuala Lumpur's flood control system will truly be a man made marvel.

For those who says a perfect recipe for disaster and negative things, just to let you know, tunnel is closed when heavy rain falls, even if they don't need to close it. It will take few hours of rain before they need to flow water through, by that time, the last car already passes at least an hour before.

[@joelrubia3678]

It's nice to follow this project because we badly needed this in the Manila, Philippines. I hope we also have it like in our Malay brother country Malaysia.

[@panteraforever9411]

DITTOED !

[@mikehill5301]

I like the graphics where the gates open and the water shoots all the cars out like a giant water slide .

[@DrummerJacob]

Ive been through that tunnel. K.L. is a really beautiful city.

What could possibly go wrong Five years from now on the Discovery Channel's Seconds From Disaster : The Death Tunnel: the worst commuter disaster in world history.

[@user-fq4hj8yv2z]

Dude, you think people who make these don't think about the obvious? Maybe. But give them some credit, these people spend decades studying on how to build.

[@rogerwalsberg]

So...everytime the flood water flows through the entire tunnel, they must clean the silt out of the roadway?

[@allangarry9068]

Better that half the city being flooded

[@user-fq4hj8yv2z]

I think that's a ok tradeoff.

[@bebasperkasa]

malaysia the best

wan mohd azli singapore also have tunnel but is under water

This is fit fot KL. They dont have earthquakes or at least as often as other countries along the ring of fire. This will not work for other country prone to earthquakes.

OK. Now how long is a Story. 4 stories high, what, about 40 -60 feet. Not much error there in a guesstimate?

[@ultimateanthony1883]

A floor should be around 12 _13 feet multiply that by 4

[@aubreyaub]

@@ultimateanthony1883 Yeah, mate, I know. Just that I get pissed when we have units of measure, and some bugger has to go and use a new one, that is not precise or even well known. Now a Foot, it's a foot. A meter, just about exactly a meter. Can't get simpler than that. A story may be 300 pages, a swimming pool, 5 million litres, a football field, whatever size they make 'em. Bloody media type people who make this sheet up. Annoys me, Hey.

[@bad71hd]

Jokes aside, I wonder how they avoid cave in’s from around the tunnel due to erosion!? Sure they have the grout, but water is a major force to the max!

Interesting but why oh why must we be subjected to height and length being described in storeys? Do they think we are stupid and can't understand metres or feet?

[@rogerscottcathey]

Appreciate the flood prevention, but that dual use is a knucklehead idea. Courting disaster.

That road would be destroyed after a flood

[@gingerteddy618]

It is concrete. Not the usual asphalt.

[@fukkyoutube]

@@gingerteddy618 water at high volume through a tunnel causes cavitation and would very quickly erode the walls of tunnel and the high speed of water would make the rebar in the concrete have a harmonic vibration and break more of it apart total disaster waiting to happen

This tunnel boring thing is nothing new , using a slurry is nothing new, pressure in front of the boring head is nothing new, they’ve been doing this for years it’s all for dramatic affect. Even using corrugated piling steel , it’s not new we’ve been using it for years that’s nothing new hello there’s nothing new here nothing new at all. This mole guy hasn’t invented anything new. This guy needs to go sit down. They’ve Ben doing this stuff for years. Alllllllll for a dramatic affect.

Check the "up next" in at the top of the recommended vids in the far right, or hit the next button, (shift+n) to the right of the play button. Most times it will take you to the next segment. Though not always. It's pretty common to up load in segments for several reasons like the automatic copyright AI or the time it takes the up loader to upload.
