see all that sand? lollll will be lots of settling, with or without rocks, concrete chunks etc mixed in
:45 1 wall already backfilled, Timmy says was just poured 1 week ago, he says, no vertical steel
1:40 where garage n driveway will be – i can’t see good enough if they used a membrane over the tar/mastic, they should have but whatever lol
3:55 – 4:25 backfilling with clay soil, oops
backfilling foundation
3:05 don’t want equipment operated next to basement walls, agree
3:30 $20,000 lesson, backfilling with WET shtt,= no-no, agree
man, just backfill with gravel, should have been ‘code’ all along, same goes for waterproofing ext-walls but they screw that up too
2:10, this guy says drain tile will be plastic perforated cheap crap ( see the depth to footing)…
2:25 says, water will be pulled out of the ground by drain tile – let’s not get this twisted, the cheap-O drain tile will NOT ‘pull out’ most or all of the water IN the ground aka, in the lousy backfilled soil - ‘some’ of the water that gets DOWN to those drain tile will get into 'em, some of the water will continue down, beyond, below D tiles! And alot of the water, rain… will soak into, saturate the lousy backfilled soil ABOVE the D tiles
6:55 SEE some of the lousy backfill,
so for those who believe it’s all about drain tiles and worship drain tiles lollll, WHY would you use CHEAP, plastic D tile at depths greater than 4’ deep? The weight of the lousy backfill can/could crush some of your beloved D tile, oopsie daisy. ( he said they will put 3–4 inches of gravel over D tiles lolllll). Backfilled soil is going to settle ATOP, onto your weak, cheap drain tiles = stupid but whatever lol
