What’s the average depth in suburban development sites? Great channel.. thanks!

[@lifeasweknowit5280]

It really depends on where existing utilities are. That will determine where we put our conduit. Personally I like to be 3’ or deeper. But if possible I like to stay less then 6’. Reason being if you go deeper then 6’ it makes it hard to retrieve the drill head if something goes wrong. Also it makes it more difficult to hook on the conduit to pull back if it’s over 6’.

Lmao...you look like chuck norris son. Im suprised you do any work, i fig the fiber line saw you and said "just sit down sir and have a coke, we'll install us ourselves. You just make sure your dad doesn't see the potholes being lazy by just sitting there over the hole in the road."...nice job tho bud

Did you install boxes at every pull point? Just seems odd to do three separate short runs.

[@lifeasweknowit5280]

We coupled most of the conduit together. Added one box at the street crossing and one by the building.

[@JJFlores197]

noob question. At 5:34, what's the purpose of having 2 different conduits (is that the term?) pulled and what's the purpose of the 2 colors?

[@M0nkNZL]

Always cheaper to pull more than you need than go back and pull more.

[@JJFlores197]

@@M0nkNZL Ah ok. It makes sense. Since they're already going through the work of running 1 they may as well run another one.

[@lifeasweknowit5280]

The colors are for identification when pulling fiber or pot holing. Most of the time utilities have different color conduit. Power is usually black with a red stripe. Com usually has orange. Gas is usually yellow.
