  • Welcome to the BuildWitt Roadshow-our 34-day journey to visit 43 Dirt World contractors across 27 US states. Oh yeah... And we did it while living in an RV.
    On DAY 1, we visited a tunneling job with Stack Inc., then saw CW Matthews paving in Atlanta, Georgia. We also had a surprise visit from the Atlanta mayor. Huh?
    Check out their websites below to learn more about Strack or CW Matthews!

    Someone tag Mike Rowe for Someone’s gotta do it! These 2 doing a collaboration would be epic

    Lmao the construction workers body language before falling off the wall when the mayor was passing out donuts was perfect

    That’s a Roadtec 190 paver. I spent most of my time running a 190 and on smaller roads the 180 and lived those pavers. Easy to work on/service and very reliable machines. I miss doing asphalt.

    Tunneling under a railroad is no joke. A lot at stake for both client and contractor. Good luck to the crew.

    Great vid and im excited too see the rest of the road show. I think Aaron you should show more QC stuff on jobs like concrete testing, compaction testing on asphalt and soil and aggregates

    out of all of the companies i've seen aaron visit and document. Plateau Excavation in atlanta ga is by far the best at moving dirt by a mile

    This seems like a very inefficient way to tunnel. Why not have a conveyor belt?

  • @litz13
    @litz13 Před 9 měsíci +4

    "dellkalb avenue" ... and everyone in Atlanta cringes.
    (It's "Dee-Cab" to locals)
    As for why repaving Dekalb Ave is such a big deal, for years (if not decades) this road has been neglected until it was basically just one big pothole. The Mayor won his election at least partly by promising to pave this road.
