What do you guys think about adjusting outrigers on the working side with the boom fully extended 90degrees from the truck.Adjusting i mean getting them higher because a little sinking in the ground.Should the boom be brought back close to the truck before doing something like that ?
@@hankrum1toni This is a great question and discussion topic. My opinion: if the ground conditions are a relatively layer of loose soil on top I am comfortable with a slight bit of settlement from compaction and would monitor accordingly but more likely tighten up the outriggers on my non-working side to take up any play in the setup. If the ground is seemingly firm yet the pads still sink (even just slightly) is a huge red flag for me, especially if cracking/fault lines appear in the ground near my dunnage. In this case, I’m bringing in the boom and outriggers to build larger dunnage, or likely even just moving the machine to different setup location. In either situation, jacking fully loaded outriggers on the working side of the machine gives my stomach a sinking feeling. Once that top layer/crust of hard ground begins to let go, it can be game over. I myself I’m not a fan of doing so. Once again, thank you for a GREAT comment. These are the types of discussion us pump operators need to have more frequently. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
@@mikeklein318 That chemical slump just gets eaten up in the line. It wasn’t setting to crazy fast, despite how miserable it looked coming out the discharge end. I swore I’d never get a drone, now that I have one and am becoming more comfortable with using it, boy oh boy does it ever provide a great perspective with regards to the overall scope of what we’re doing on these larger job sites.
Tracked spyder would've been the ticket imho, as long as the deck was rated for the weight. Just ran one yesterday, 16m z, for my first time. Controls are backwards from muscle memory, but all in all, a very viable option
@@greghughey9738 so funny you should mention it, a buddy of hours actually has a ConFoms 16Z track-mounted spyder. We may look into using it for when we come back to pour the topping slab here.

I appreciate that. These rigs definitely get the job done, but there are some more advanced pieces of equipment we could implement to make things much easier on ourselves.
I was thinking the same thing with this pour. We definitely need to figure something out for future pours like this. Most of us pump operators ain’t getting any younger, and dragging hose around all day like this doesn’t add any years to our expected longevity in the trade.
@@jamessomero3617 normally we’ll pump our mixes through this much 3.5”hose with the pressure gauge reading only half of what it is here. We don’t see much 4” hose around here because guys simply can’t/won’t deal with it. Next pour we’ll likely just run a bunch of 4” steel pipe and break off as we go. Today’s market they’re going to have to bite the bullet and go the route of line dragons or track mounted spyder boom. The willing and able bodies just don’t exist to deal with this anymore. We have a hard enough time finding guys to deal with the hours of pumping easy jobs. Pours like this just give them more inactive to go drive ready mix for close to the same wage. I agree though, 4” system would have been WAY easier on the machines.
@@bekimtvrtkovic3244 typically with our mixes we don’t see the links working so hard through this amount of 3.5” hose. There’s definitely some 4” steel pipe in the cards for when we come back here to pour the topping slab 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
We charge $1 a foot after 150'. How much did those dragon eggs cost you? Don't you guys only run putzmeisters? Do you have a video of your whole fleet? That and a shop tour video would be nice to see.
I remember many years back. At the dinner table with my dad and outta no where he says. Bullshit we’re gonna charge for every dam inch of hose we F-ing use from now on
@@Mike-b3v LOL!!!!! The same conclusion we have just now come to. With the cost of pipes/hoses/clamps damn near doubling in the last 5 years, and the quality/life expectancy being less than half of what it used to, something’s gotta give. Your dad is a smart man indeed! 👌
@@canadianconcretepumper1979 Yes he was. I remember thinking. Dads mad. When I asked he said. Remember the old car we had. It got hit. Beat with a hammer and get back to driving. It was a good old car. Made to last. Your mom’s new car hit the pole and airbags went off and it cost 25k to fix. Well the hoses used to be good now there shit. Sadly it’s very true. Prices have went up but quality has went down. People don’t understand. We’re not actually making more money. We’re using it to keep up with new equipment because it’s not what it used to be
Dragons wouldnt be very effective up there with the gap in the rebar and how far off the deck it is. Would have to have dedicated guys to just push the dragons when they got stuck.
@@canadianconcretepumper1979 that would be very nice. Some dragon pours ive spent more time getting dragons unstuck with the little tires then actually pumping concrete. I would like to see one of those ConForm tracked spyder booms going on something like that. Good work by your crew.
@@greghughey9738 so there’s a local outfit here whom says they are very close to approval on a 63M Putz and/or 65M Schwing. Honestly, for us, the 56Z is a much more versatile pump size (especially with that new “full-flex” coming into play). With all the terrain we have encounter, these heavier 7 axles pump units just begin to cannibalize themselves after a few years of service.
@canadianconcretepumper1979 65m Schwing is UNGODLY heavy. The 63z still gives the options for short rig setups, unlike the 65m. I def follow, the big 60s are a big effort to keep on the road, but those 3 tier swing out outriggers are a god send
@@kencleopas4392 We just make the best of what they provide us with. That concrete actually tests out at an 8” slump going into the pump, unfortunately it’s down to about a 4” at the discharge end of the hose .
@@kencleopas4392 it’s not so much that it’s setting fast, but more so that once being pumped (put under pressure) the slump changes drastically due to the amount of chemical being used in the concrete. Concrete slumped with water typically does not incur such drastic changes in slump.

Funny I was watching the video and looking at the three guys on the hose thinking you need more and then you mentioned it lack of man power. That and they probably were doing a 5 sack mix to cut down on the price. Build back better 🤣🤣

How is the pumping work sold to the client? Dollars per cubic yards pumped?

Why are you pumping concrete with a slump of 4" - 6" , that's so sticky. Not a pump design concrete
@@kencleopas4392 We just make the best of what they provide us with. That concrete actually tests out at an 8” slump going into the pump, unfortunately it’s down to about a 4” at the discharge end of the hose .
@@canadianconcretepumper1979 Do you test on site? Or just at the plant?
@@kencleopas4392 All testing is done on site.
@@canadianconcretepumper1979 that's some fast setting concrete
