    Subscribed. Your definitely not a hack. Wish everybody cared about quality and took the time to really educate themselves about their trade like u have. Experience counts! I enjoy how you go into detail about why your doing certain things. Gives me something to take away from your vids.

    Can you make a specific video detailing why is harder to pump down than up? And maybe the proper operation of the pump.

    We did a job at the naval post graduate school in Monterey and I had the job full of idiots. Pouring a side walk and a 20x20 pad. Poured half of the sidewalk and half of the pad and then ran out of concrete....no problem truck is on its way, or so they said. After waiting and waiting and waiting we find out the driver took the load to the wrong job and they didn't have any more trucks. An hour and 10 min later the 2nd truck shows up and what were the pumping crew doing the whole hour and 10 minutes wait time.... chilling in the shade. Did they clean out their pump or hoses, nope. So they struggle to get their hoses clear and now we are at an hour and a half. Had to cold joint the 2nd half of the pad.....which was not a formed cold joint but just a cold joint for the last pour wherever we left off. I have been back to the job site for the last 3 years and to this day I cannot fathom how it didn't crack right were the cold joint went together. It is a miracle. I have to say that I can't agree with you on the fly ash. We have had jobs side by side with fly ash and with out and there is definitely a difference in the amount of cracking.

    Easy wash out do you have to put a plug and pump it with water on your hopper and you have a water tank together with your truck?

    The reinforcing on the pływood , was it enough for the Concrete not to bulge it? It doesn’t look reinforced enough for me, and by the end of the video you could see it bulged

  • @christopherr7195

    I live on a steep hill on the Oregon coast. My family had a retaining wall poured 15 years ago. The deck sits on top. The framing has clearly moved. Meaning the wall has moved. If built properly. Should this never move. Or is a hill side always an issue. That you can only contain?

    • @WestCoastCustomConcrete
      @WestCoastCustomConcrete  Před 4 lety +2

      Sorry to hear that. It shouldn't have moved. Caissons into bed rock are essential for hillside construction.

      Shouldn't have passed here, I didn't see a vibrator to consolidate, he used dobies on this job. It's all about context and perspective, hes a sole proprietor with one or two pumps and this is a "big" job for him. Finish work is good, footings were clean, bar looked adequate, Dude does good work, definitely invest in vibrator bro.

    I wonder if the Concrete Underground would teach you how to do this? I wonder if the rest of these failures on CZcams ever drove in Laguna Beach, and saw your access. Maybe they wouldn't need to buy subscribers, and have greater respect for your work.
