- This is not a how to video but just to show how we did it. We think it turned out great. This will be the floor to a storage building. We will frame walls on top of the concrete and put a door and a couple of windows in. There will be no heavy weight or any vehicles on this slab so it should be just fine. Lots of people hate this method and I understand so we will see how it holds up long term. I watched many videos prior to doing this and for this kind of use I've seen no issues long term. Thanks for watching!!!
I did a 12*20 at my uncle's farm about 5 years ago using dry pour. He parks his boat trailer on it, It's still going strong.
That’s awesome!!!!
All of the negative comments are contractors and concrete truck drivers that are going to be put out of business.
That looks amazing, and I love your ending! LOL I've watched all the videos too, and have wondered how a really large slab like this might turn out. Great job and excellent video!
LOL. The ending was fun!!!! Thanks for watching!!
So much easier to do a wet pour. Less labour, And stronger.
And the rio bar is pissweak.
I don’t think wet pour is easier. That’s hard work. I would like to wet pour but I don’t think I could do it. Plus I don’t have the correct tools to finish it.
Looked like fencing wire.🤦♂️
It was heavy fence wire. I used bolt cutters to cut it. Use what we have.
Wet pour is easier than you think. Just try a small slab to have a practice run, it will last much longer than this dry pour fad@workingbettertogether4882
The worst problem I see from this trend is people doing this to say, renovate the external concrete of their house to then sell and the new owners dealing with concrete falling apart alot sooner than it should.. the only thing I see this being 'ok' for is setting fence posts
What do you mean by falling apart???
About the only labour advantage I can see is not having to mix the concrete. Personally I cant see that slab lasting too long.
Mixing all those bags would have been some work for sure. What do you mean by lasting too long???
Spending all this money and time to get a weak concrete is not something I understand too well 😅
How weak do you think it is??? 2000 2500 3000 PSI?
When I did my dry pour I did less see sawing and just screeded the top before using the paint roller and it came out great on top. Then I used a walkmaker as a stamp which also looked good! Great job...
@@workingbettertogether4882 A guy tested his dry pour and it was 3600 P.S.I. Great video! Ignore the haters.
@@workingbettertogether4882they're in every dry pour video comment section whining about the method. They've never done it so obviously it won't work because reasons. I've seen multiple videos testing the strength of dp and as long as it's not a driveway or house foundation send it! Over charging concrete contractors are pissed 😂
