Extreme Slope Stabilization

Dirt Time - Extreme Slope Preview from BlinkWorks -James Swirsky on Vimeo.

In this episode, Dirt Time host John McCullah & crew find themselves hanging 100 feet in the air at the BridgeBay Marina.

Their job is to stabilize a failing, near-vertical slope that threatens the resort's parking lot.  Making matters worse is the fact that the slope is made of exceptionally erode-able decomposed granite.  Not the easiest of situations.

You'll watch as John uses (& explains) 'Slope Nailing', Flexible Growth Medium, Rock Toes and Hydromulch spraying and mixing.

All done in an effort to stop the slope from breaking off onto the hoods of the resort's customers.

Episode 20

Articulated Concrete Blocks

For our 20th episode, the Dirt Time crew takes on an Articulated Concrete Block installation as part of a watershed resoration project. 

Articulated Concrete Blocks (ACBs) can be used in many different applications, but in this project, the ACBs were a perfect fit for constructing a Four-Season Low Water Crossing.

Armed with his trusty Track Hoe and Spreader Bar, John McCullah shows you how to properly prepare, grade and install cabled ACB Mats.
