Here we are constructing a new vinyl seawall with a manta ray earth anchoring system from demo to completion with a platform and large mooring poles for deep water vessel morning.
I want to tell you how much I appreciate you making the time to show how this is done I usually watch CZcams so that I can figure out how to do things on my own but after seeing all the work and the manpower it takes to do something like this I think I hundred percent support the idea of a business doing it over myself
Thanks for watching my channel and your comment. Yes, we have a lot of sand here which is great. We do run into some hard pan clay now the moon, which is like rock.
@@DaleWHickman Yea, my dad had a marine construction company in Eastern NC, we used to put it all in by hand and water pump. There was only one way to get it done, with the wash pipe and HARD HARD work, ha
@@bigkingbud That was all my dad believed in he had a business that started in 1979. He did not believe in equipment he believed in my back breaking labor .🤔😂
@@bigkingbud Trust me it is difficult we pay very well have great benefits. Have a real good team camaraderie do a couple deep-sea fishing trips a year and a nice Christmas party.
j4566 Normally we run our pumps and wash the sand with the water up underneath there I could not get that one filled quite all the way so I set some additional pilings underneath of the slab to help support it from sinking any further. Thanks for your question and watching 👍
Looks great! quick question, how are you attaching your chain to the sheet to pick it up? I'm fairly new to using machines for setting walls and the guys I work for are old school and like to set by hand using a water jet and sledge hammer...trying to use machines a little more and save our backs lol. thanks for sharing!
I heard that Tyler that’s the way I was brought up my dad did not believe in equipment. That’s why I use it now I’m wore out 😳😳 I have a sheet plate that I purchased from Amazon should be coming out and one of my videos soon I kind of explained it. Thanks for watching!!😎👍
If you are jetting the sheets u should be good. If anything use the hammer head with a block on top to not damage the sheet. No need to swing a sledge if u have the hammer head. Just check level on each sheet and lag in as u go.
Flylikechris thanks for your comment, the spots on the barge are 8 inch pipes the way 1100 pounds. I picked him up with the tractor moved the barge where needs to go set them back down it holds the barge in place 👍
Watched and enjoyed all your videos. Have one question for you: I live on the great Lake of Lake Ontario and was wondering how the vinyl sea walls would hold up to harsh winters , ice , moving ice , expansion and contraction with temperatures. Love the system, just unsure it's right for my region and climate . Eastern shore of Lake Ontario specifically.
Mike Kania Thanks for the question but I’ll get with my my vendor see if he has this product installed in your area. Appreciate you watching my videos!
You'd be better off with something like an L8 galv sheet pile (or North American equivalent). Composite/Vinyl/Plastic piling has come along way but nothing like that likes deep heat cycles. Galv steel with a hardwood cap would be the best option depending on what you use it for.
Thanks for your comment and watching. My wife has a company that re-claims all the reusable wood that we removed when we replace old docks. Instead of throwing them in the landfill people come out and buy them at a greatly reduced price. facebook.com/Hickmansreclaimeddockwoodforsale/
Thanks for your comment the anchors are five eights type 316 stainless steel that are drilled all the way through the wall and on the water side we have 1/4“ x 3 x 3 stainless steel plate with a stainless nut attached. The backfill is a sandy feel which allows the water to move freely through the soil back through the wall after a high tide.
Thanks for watching the channel. Appreciate the comment the Piling placement in front of vinyl walls really depends on the exposed height of the walls.
@@berniemac8413 really depends on the series of vinyl that you’re using. I don’t like going any taller than 5 foot with a 5.5 Everlast before I start installing a mid whaler with pilings.
Hey John thanks for your comment and watching my channel I don’t like to discuss prices on my CZcams channel because it gives my competition and unfair advantage and an idea my price points 👍
Thanks for your comments the hose is connected to a 3 inch pump. We use a 1”1/2 aluminum pipe which we referred to as a jet pipe this puts out some good water pressure when you put it in the sand it actually moves the sand and allows you to install the vinyl sheet pilings. Similar to sticking a garden hose in the ground you could see that it digs a little hole.

You are so welcome!
Can’t believe I got the chance to see this video, I work doing this ,we got a 40ft barge with a kubota on it,like your project’s really love them man
😊 thanks
really smart to remove the old wall before the new is in place:-)))))
Great job, but it’s all sand wish we had that up here in Michigan.
Thanks for watching my channel and your comment. Yes, we have a lot of sand here which is great. We do run into some hard pan clay now the moon, which is like rock.
That’s a big project! I see DMC everywhere.
Just hook a chain to the piles and pull em, instead of using the claw and breaking the piles so you don't have to go back.
In this kind of work, that wash pipe, it quickly separates the boys from the men. haha
That is so true you must’ve used one 💪

Would like to see how you back fill under the slab. Subscribed.

Cool video. How were the anchors attached to the wall? What did you backfill with?

What is the cost range per ft. Currently have a 110ft concrete. Can vinyl be installed in front of the concrete
I am up in nj I noticed on your vynal walls you have no big poles how come ?
Thanks for watching the channel. Appreciate the comment the Piling placement in front of vinyl walls really depends on the exposed height of the walls.
@@DaleWHickmanat what exposed height do you start installing posts in-front of the vinyl seawalls?
@@berniemac8413 really depends on the series of vinyl that you’re using. I don’t like going any taller than 5 foot with a 5.5 Everlast before I start installing a mid whaler with pilings.
How much did a job like that cost?

@@DaleWHickman ok gotcha...
hi there, why do you use this hose with a metal tube to help on craving the seawall ?
send me as email please - ricbp17@gmail.com

Hi! What's the name or model of that attachment in the excavator?
I have a bulk head. How do you form up for a sidewalk along bulkhead?
Good morning! What brand and type of sheet pile did you drive in this project?

How long did this demo/installation take?
Hey Josh thanks for question don’t really remember the time frame but I believe it was a little over two weeks.
Also blanket costs
You’re cute! 😎👷🏽♂️🚧
