    If he's testing that material and the material has gotten rockier or whatever, and he's using the same proctor than it will be off. Tell that dude to run a one point on it 😅

    I worked for a company we had 10 reclaimers, we got teeth and holders by the pallet full, we did mostly asphalt reclamation, we found Kenmetal made good products, we got Sadvik one time and the were great but too expensive, we had 2 spare drums we had in rotating racks for rebuilds, we rebuilt the hoods and also replaced them with new ones

  • @jonnooney7102
    @jonnooney7102 Před rokem

    Did you have to bid the job to account for all the increased maintenance or is there a rock clause of some sort where you get to add that on top . Just curious as to how that works....I know numbers are top secret.

  • @eformance
    @eformance Před rokem +1

    I know Lime is exothermic, so does putting the lime down cause it to evaporate a bunch of water, or is the lime absorbing and holding onto the water, pulling it from the soil?

    • @ke6gwf
      @ke6gwf Před rokem

      The lime absorbs a lot of moisture obviously, but I have heard him talking about needing to get it finished before it cools down, so it may have some drying from heat aspect as well, though maybe that's just a sign that it's still absorbing moisture.
      There may also be a chemical aspect to it?
      Though I think I heard him say that you have to seal it before it gets rained on or it will just absorb more water and get muddy again.
