This video, shot by Maine television station WMTW-8, captures a culvert failure and road collapse from an intense spring storm. It's a teaching tool LTAP/TTAP centers utilize.
@@SebastianSteele Ideally it needed concrete around the road to keep the ground dry and stop it from collapsing under the pressure of the water, or just better drainage. Things these days are made so half arsedly without proper future and disaster proofing.

I think if Post10 inspected the area before the storm, and maybe followed it for a few months he could have made recommendations, but ultimately that culvert was so damaged on the end.... I don't think saving it was an option. I think it needed to be replaced years before this happened. But I'm glad it's fixed now and no one was hurt.

At 2:44 & 3:52 When Post 10 said how come clean water went in and dirty water came out the other side he was told he should not worry about that and not to go into confined spaces by yourself with out proper training and they will take his statement and look into it at a later date but everything under the road is fine
Alas... he is but one man... Surrounded by over 100s of thousands of defective drains... In a world full of lazy bureaucrats and useless union workers...
I have seen and heard of several of these occurrences, and generally not under extreme events. Corrugated metal pipes are particularly prone to getting washed out and turning into giant pretzels downstream. They are light, and tend to float very nicely. It is also fairly common with precast concrete pipe culverts and even a multi-cell insitu reinforced concrete box culvert. If water can find a path down the side of a structure and get out the other end then watch out.
Ya especially with the water holding a mass bigger than the pipes, those pipes break off. This video also shows a really good example of how Newton’s Second Law of Physics (primarily motion) works in the in the world. The force of the water used to break this road apart comes from the mass that the water builds up and the acceleration the water flows as it breaks through the pipe. These factors are so strong that the new tar on this road softened up and broke off .
@@frightenedsoul Indeed ... I'm by no means a civil engineer ... ... but look at the - convenient - cross section of the road, that actual asphalt is, what, only 6-8" thick ...? The rest is just highly compacted earth, which in counties that don't experience heavy rainfall, and flash flooding, kinda makes sense. ... but once the flow finds a way, especially around a - badly maintained - corrugated steel culvert, it's game over, as the soil is literally washed away, undermining the road bed, causing the overlaying asphalt to collapse. Don't quote me on this, but perhaps the on coming infrastructure crisis in the US, and even parts of Canada is that local budgets only allow 'just good enough", without thinking long-term, in the hopes it will last until the next budget rounds, that may allow further improvements ... and even then ... Makes you wonder just how many roads have collapsed, for this exact same reason ...
@@muhammadfrezaarazak1768 i live 2 miles from it,i never even knew this happened lmao, i used to go down here everyday to see my friends, and i would fish here anf explore, lil kid stuff, but the bridge looks fine now, it doesnt even look like anything ever happened
I worked engineering of a county hi-way dept. I would design and size culverts for stream crossings. From what I see here the pipe inlet opening had been compromised resulting in it not carrying the required flow. The storm event may have also been more than the design flow could handle resulting in over-topping of the road which never ends well as the berm erodes very rapidly resulting in undermining of the road. It also shows how easily hydraulic pressure can lift a 15-20,000# culvert like it was balsa wood. I have seen these types of culverts carried many feet downstream.
We had one go near where I live, luckily it was on a dirt road that was only a shortcut that saved about half a mile so there was no critical traffic issue from it. When I came by the culvert was sticking out of the crater in the road vertically.
Sorry that some people actually have professions which require more than giving the basics like you desire . Getting upset that someone gave an in-depth response to this video seems absolutely absurd. You’re getting irritated over nothing you silly boy. “A page of text” how small is your mind that you consider that long... This is just silly and pointless on your part Didn’t even talk about the beam either , so just leave.
Desert Road in Freeport, Maine (43.8500° N 70.1355° W). Google Earth imagery history indicates this was repaired with a nice new metal culvert sometime before 2010. Check the comparison of the culvert in the April 2006 image and the really pretty May 2010 image. Still holding strong as of 2016.
Latitude doesn't make sense... Should it actually be 43.(58) instead of (85)? The road name listed isn't near those coordinates according to Google Maps. Maybe they labeled a road name incorrectly? Latitude and Longitude can only go up to (.59) then it would increase to the next number.
Eric Bennett I agree He used the zoom button abit to much. What I mean is that I would have loved to see it collapse when he was zoomed out insted of a close view and I think that what Eric Bennett ment to. I guess.
All the time I’m thinking...”I wonder if there’s a blocked culvert.” Yup. Maintenance is a thing. You’re not saving money avoiding it. The cost of replacing the road section is going to be 10x the cost of maintenance plus factor in the lost economic use of the road.
While maintenance is VERY important, in these conditions, that culvert could have been perfectly clean last week. No matter how big you build a drainage system, mother nature WILL overwhelm it.
Those clips at the end really show you how deep the culvert has to be to keep water from building up on the high side of the road. Super neat clip of a preventable road failure

Latitude doesn't make sense... Should it actually be 43.(58) instead of (85)? The road name listed isn't near those coordinates according to Google Maps. Maybe they labeled a road name incorrectly?
Latitude and Longitude can only go up to (.59) then it would increase to the next number.
Thank you for this
Same all around the world: money to built, not a cent to maintain = wreks ahead.
When we had a big storm in Wisconsin a few years ago, half the culverts were rotted out. Proper maintenance would have limited a lot of wash outs.
scary and beautiful at the same time
Did they eventually put a bridge up here or fix the road? I imagine a bridge would be the smart and easier method lol
This guy really likes the zoom in button.
It ain't safe to go near collapsing anything. And he does quite a good job with it, too.
i think it was just a humorous observation lol
Eric Bennett I agree
He used the zoom button abit to much. What I mean is that I would have loved to see it collapse when he was zoomed out insted of a close view and I think that what Eric Bennett ment to. I guess.
@@jackhwthorne you sure about that
@@themysteryguy192 dude you can see it collapse perfectly fine in the camera's view you're just to blonde to notice
All the time I’m thinking...”I wonder if there’s a blocked culvert.”
Yup.
Maintenance is a thing. You’re not saving money avoiding it.
The cost of replacing the road section is going to be 10x the cost of maintenance plus factor in the lost economic use of the road.
It's saved in this year's budget. More important things to do.
Politicians and voters don't tend to think about the long term.
That is a serious problem that our country needs to start to address.
While maintenance is VERY important, in these conditions, that culvert could have been perfectly clean last week.
No matter how big you build a drainage system, mother nature WILL overwhelm it.
The flaw there is you think the government worries about wasting money. Undoubtedly someone got paid to rebuild this.
Asphalt is almost 100% recycled. This is why there is the word "almost"
That makes total sense
Wow this was exactly the type of thing Post10 is fighting to stop. State governments need to take it as series as he does.
youtube: hey, its 4am, want to see some road collapse?
Me : ua---
youtube: say no more pal
🤣🤣 you made my day
Wow it’s 4:02 am for me
It’s 35:72 pm at my black hole so yeh O O O O O F
Hahaha so funny
BaB0NGamer It’s 8:11 for me
If only post 10 was around... this disaster could've been prevented
Where was Gondor when the Westfold fell? Where was Post10 when this culvert clogged?
Excellent video, nature is awesome
This is what happens when Post 10 isn't around to take care of things.
3:51 german U-boat surfaced
Rohit Verma aww thanks for the heart
Humanity: Here is a road!
Nature: Here is a river!
Humanity: Here!.... yes here is a river.
Most everyone in the comments mentions Post 10 but not me. I will not mention Post 10.
post 10 be like: we bout to fix this road with some unclogging
جمل
this is something different and pulse this in 2008
Oi
@@summerrobinson6950 hmmm, you have any friends? or you just dont know what a joke is
And a rake lol
Those clips at the end really show you how deep the culvert has to be to keep water from building up on the high side of the road. Super neat clip of a preventable road failure
And what the hell do you know about culverts, Lee?! I lived and breathed them for 30 years. 30 goddamned years.
@Post10 what do you think happened here?
