  • Aaron and Matt traveled out to the great state of Massachusetts to visit J.R. Vinagro and their massive high school project they have going on. This rock export job involves hundreds of trucks and a lot of big machines to keep everything ahead of schedule. Thanks to J.R. Vinagro and Mr. Andrew Surmick for having us out and showing us around.

    I would like to hear more about the digital tools they are using. I saw Trimble Status, but what else in the Trimble suite might be in use? Or other products? They are experts in moving lots of rock no question. How are they measuring it and reporting productivity etc? Anyway, thanks for the great video.

  • @ratfink9106

    I live less than a mile from this site. It's right in the middle of a neighborhood. With houses all around it. Used to be a church s property. The worst spot in the city for a new school in many residents opinions. All the truck s had to have a cop sit there and let them in and out of that job site. One at a time. Imagine sitting in that traffic in the morning waiting for 150 trucks to go in or out. And they could only drive in or down one road to another that when towards the highway.

      I guess the people in the development should not have so many kids. There is cause and effect. They are the cause. This is the effect.

    Looks like a lot of aggregate to make concrete for building the school.

  • @espenbjerke1905
    @espenbjerke1905 Před 2 lety +4

    Only way this makes sense is if they are selling the rock for a very good price. or the state has money to burn: Build Back Be....

      3:33 states quarries are impossible to permit. they are probably getting paid on both ends per yard.

    • @rp1645
      @rp1645 Před rokem

      It like cement company. The Left over mix in Cement Trucks, made into retainer blocks. The cement plants by my house have a huge yard of blocks piled high. The Loader guys can hook the steel rings, so well from just loading them out to customer. The cement is sold twice, just like this rock spoil. It will build back up the quarry's.

    2:35 Nope, it doesn't make sense.
    It's a win for modern engineering but a loss for mother nature and a HUGE loss of for the neighborhoods. I feel really awful for the people that live anywhere near this.
