Dude, Grady: I hope you understand how monumentally important what you do is. I'm not even talking about the engineering (I'm a civil as well, and I work in geotech), rather the conveying of this information in a digestible manner to the public. You rock dude. Glad to see your channel grow.

I come from a construction management background, most of the things you talk about are things I already know. But, I love the way you explain things so simply that it's nice to be able to brush up on my knowledge that has gone dormant over the years from disuse. I always say that an individual cannot ever know enough and it is important to take time to bolster my own knowledge. You've easily earned my sub. Keep up the great work!

We have proper safety measures AND we build good quality things, and the people who own the construction company make slightly less profit. Horrifying, right?

Right out of college I worked on Terminal 6 in Portland OR. My job was inspecting each and every sheet pile driven into the Columbia R. to create a row of caissons forming the pier face. As you know pile driving is based on driving to resistance. I marked each sheet pile with an approval chalk mark at the resistance point. When done with this project I figured we had driven the equivalent of 20 linear miles of piling. The caissons were then filled with compacted sand and topped with a 24inch concrete deck. Good memories.

AmbyJeans I appreciate that greatly. You are the first person to thank me for the work I do , usually the Iron workers , operating engineer's ( crane & all other heavy and light equipment.) That get the attention. Obviously we don't do it for recognition rather a sense of family pride and things like that. We basically do almost every different type of construction while building something below the water , we are licensed and trained to do so , well rounded Dockbuilders are. We do pretty much anything that is below the water level and on the water or shore. One day I'm building a bumper system so boats don't slam into the bridge or the barges , and the next building form work for the freedom towers foundation or even working on the subway tracks and of course there's the divers and tenders who do all the fun underwater work. So its a fun job , lots of different things to chose to do. Thank you again , its nice to talk about what I do every day. Or a summary of it.

Most likely indirectly you did and so the algorithm tries with a related topic. Plus sometimes the algorithm proposes a new subject just to see if you like it or otherwise and if the attempt fails no big deal, NO loss! because you/we keep scrolling down the list and continue watching videos and that's all it matters to the company, simple as that.

The algorithm might have noticed a pattern of what you want to watch at certain times of day or certain days of the month, that's my theory, although you would have to record what you watch at certain times of the month or certain times of day, etc. over a long period of time to be sure about that :/

Instead of following my shoes, aviation engineering, he chose the trades. 4 years of apprentice schooling and he’s a fully qualified iron worker and welder. Also got his rigging certification.

It was a joke when they kept sending divers down, but couldn't see anything. I was thinking why not pull dirty water from the bottom of the shaft, filter it and add a bit more clean water so that the clean water in the search area's hydrostatic pressure would push out the dirty water. They act as if people centuries ago would be able to construct something which modern man using modern equipment and techniques wouldn't be able to access. They think there were flood tunnels which are booby traps. No the reason everything floods is because it is a relatively small permable island.

HI, Thanks for entertaining vids. To concider is also what we use in Finland. Buiding in the arctic areas allows us to freece water and create a coffer dam of ice in the winter, then break the ice on the work site. The ice melts away finally on the spring and doesn't use resources at all. Totally natural.

Hi, long time lurker on your channel. Japan, Taiwan and Philippines recently experienced earthquakes just this week and I think it's a great time to revisit or expand your earthquake related video. A demonstration or two with different intensities, etc. will be helpful. Thanks for these highly informative videos.

Rio-Antirio bridge had her pillars that the base was built in shore, and then they towed roughly in position, and then they were built as normally. The increasing weight due to construction, submersed the pillars until they where set on their own bed.

@Rafael If you are curious watch those documentaries: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZaVZ4iubrZ3apY kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4bUo3WMabicp7M Main difference between premade constructions and those made in keson is that it was probably better to made them in dry dock or just impossible to made keson big enough to build it like this (Troll A). Some tunnels are built in dry dock and then submerged (look for Boston Big Dig). I believe that difference is large at least to mention of that type of construction.

@@piotrlenar5652 it is spelled caisson, not keson which is a nonsensical word, not hard to figure out how to spell when spellcheck (should) offer caisson as the proper spelling. And yes many large formats can now be more eaisly precast at a dry dock and loaded out to location and forgo the need for a caisson and thus forgo the dangers of that confined method of casting.
