I think the reason the roller screeds are not used as much anymore because when I started in concrete in 1984 they were only made for commercial work. They were so big you needed heavy machinery to move them around. But I would use one now because I see they are built smaller and it doesn’t require a 10 hp engine.
Roller screeds are great for small jobs like these. You can use laser screeds on sloped concrete, as long as it's flat, not level, flat. You can also laser screed compound pitched with 3D system. I just purchased 2nd Ligchine Screedsaver Elite. 35,000 sf per day with FF 75 FL 70. Can't do that with Roller screeds.
Nobody pours curb at a 1" slump. Takes too long to place and its difficult to close up in form without massive amounts of honeycomb. Pour a 5" slump, fast, with 2° accelerator and we finish 3 - 9 yard loads a day of curb....every day.
That's our goal is to save workers backs, and make concrete easier. We would love to come to Australia someday, we've learned a lot from Aussie concreters as well.
