This felt like a kids show written with an adult level of detail. Love it!

As a Civil Engineer and project manager in construction, I can watch this all day

The production quality of these videos really makes you appreciate the amount of effort and time put in these videos. This kind of quality easily surpasses the old videos I used to watch on the Discovery channel for instance!

This content is a perfect companion to your lessons. It feels like this is the lab course to your lecture course. We get to see everything you teach in action!

Great new series. Hope this turns into a big success and more projects in future.

As a contractor that does this kind of work it is cool to see it shown to the masses. We also work in this area and for this owner, and you picked a great contractor to follow. Job well done!

Grady, thank you!
This is so well put together, highly informative and so interesting.
Just the right level of detail, not so much that you get bogged down or overwhelmed.
The scripting is on point and the visuals all relevant.
Content of this quality is really hard to find on YT.
Excellent work! A+

This truly is next level production. Perfect narration, audio clarity, diagrams, art, b roll, drone shots, time lapse, composition, sound production, and detailed scientific explanation for the layman. This channel is $$$$.

it's amazing that you've come so far that places like the san antonio river authority now see you as a legitimate way to educate the public on things like this, I love it.

Oh man this is quality stuff. You're nailing it. All the stuff that made the big networks big back in the day, it's right here but it's better. No drama, no fake shine. Just the meat of a good project. It's like the construction/engineering version of why I watch Nature, NOVA, Planet Earth, etc. Yes please.

As a San Antonio native in construction, I love seeing these videos. Iāve seen that exact same 300 ton Howell crane on one of my projects too! Keep up the good work

Iām currently working on the design and construction of a sanitary lift station in my city, and you have no idea how thrilled I was to see this appear on my feed!

As a Pump Engineer in the UK I am excited to see how you guys over the pond get it done!

I'm loving this. It's one thing to see stuff like strucutal fountations be explained in a 10 minute video, and a whole nother experience to follow a project along its entire process in SUCH detail. I'm aware how much effort it is to show every small step, and IMO that's what makes this really stand out! Big thanks to you and your team for the great work in documenting this.

I was once a laborer on a crew that put up a cable stayed bridge over a large river. It was a job, and it was a couple years of hard work, but it was also fascinating to see all the details coming together. Your new feature is sure to be a hit. This stuff is some of the greatest content out there. I can't wait for more.
Fantastic work!

I am totally fascinated by your content; as someone who has never worked in either engineering or construction, I am nonetheless very curious to see how our world's structures are designed and built. As someone else mentioned, I could watch this all day! Thank you for continuing to provide excellent, informative and fabulous material!

Funnily enough, I am currently in the construction phase of a 10 MGD submersible station. (My first plan set I personally stamped.) We are just finishing up submittals!
Edit: I also loved that you purposely showed the pump truck's prime not going into the pour location. Sometimes we have to provide a friendly reminder to the contractor that the pump truck's prime is not considered concrete. haha

I am now emotionally invested in this lift station and it's imperative to my wellbeing that this project succeeds. Thanks Mr. Grady P. Engineering

Rewatching the entire series since Grady said theyāre getting less views than his usual content . Please let these series continue!
