Always appreciate working with you guys on challenging pours like this. 25 years of pumping concrete now, and this one here definitely goes down as one of my most, if not THE most memorable jobs which we have been part of. 👊👊👊
This is just wild!!!!!! 100% the best video you’ve ever posted ! Even better that that one with Brett Michaels acting a fool lol. What a cool job! I will say I love that they allowed you to wet it up. My Shotcrete customer refuses! Has to be at least a 2” slump for him but to him even that’s too wet.
Thanks Chris. With a pour like this, the pool company is quite understanding as to the fact that the mud is going to have to be a little more loose than what is typically ideal for them. This crew is top-notch to work with, and as such are very accommodating on a specialty pour like this one. 100% my most favourite video which I’ve ever shot!!!
Glad you enjoyed it Piete!!! I was pretty excited from the moment I’d seen this one pop up in our schedule. Challenging in-house pours like this definitely help to keep things interesting 😀😀😀
Super great video man! I know how much work it is editing and making videos and doing it all for free and giving us all this free education is so awesome
@@samstrucks there is a very slight bit of advertising revenue in it for me. That being said I just spent every last penny of said revenue on a new/upgraded drone… True story. 😂😂😂
I LOVE Alan Woods, he is the freakin man! Unfortunately the last time I talked to him he said he was having some health concerns, I hope and pray he's doing well...he's saved my bacon a bunch of times.
He is such a great guy. Helped us out a ton over the years. Always a voice of good, constructive criticism. I have a lot to be thankful for which I learned from him,
@@canadianconcretepumper1979 Me too, I can't even count the number of exchanged emails or phone calls to get his opinion...or to have some German diagrams translated 🤣. No matter what it is I've never once stumped him, and more importantly I've never once run into a person that's had a bad thing to say about him!
@@chadlangley2193 That’s a SOLID machine you’ll be taking ownership of. A very well respected local company here is running one, and they absolutely love it. 👌👌👌
@@scottpump Thanks man! Definitely some tense says leading up to this one. Grateful that all went well. Big shout-out to the concrete supplier (Graestone Ready Mix) for supplying some very forgiving mud to us pumpers 👍👍👍

So about your S-tube comments...what do you think causes that? Obviously the dry mud is a factor, but is it just because of how slow a big pump kit is moving material? Because I'm used to pumping really dry mud often for civil work and I've never run into it...but I'm always moving a lot of material pretty quickly.
It is a function of reducing down from a 9" material delivery cylinder to a 2" discharge hose coupled with a mix design which does not have enough aggregate to "self-clean" the S-tube and material cylinders and low volume/high-pressure.
@canadianconcretepumper1979 ahhh sure. I don't do shotcrete... I'm doing dry mud but still with 1.5" rock most of the time so that makes a lot of sense. That really does look like something out of a horror movie.
Not enough... never enough.. Lol!!! Quite honestly though, the amount of pre-planning and overall stress level leading up to these pours most definitely constitutes the fairly substantial invoice. 😄😄😄
The slide housing is too short. The aperture of the hole in the slide plate allowed the slurry to pass through. The hole in the slide needs to be completely covered by the housing fully open. Design fault. 😅 🎉
@@canadianconcretepumper1979 I was watching when the Minorcan Mullat drone took a swim in the harbor at Baltimore. It was almost 100 yds from the boat when it went in.
Thanks to your knowledge and willingness to do the job it was easy for us to get it done. Not sure what we would have done without you…..thanks Scott!

I saw the drone pass me on the scaffold on 17, saw the yellow truck and figured it was you guys. Nice vid!

Neat to see what some people request and how it gets done. Great work!
I was super stoked when I had first seen this one pop up on the schedule. These are the types of pours which us as concrete pumpers live for.
Insane job.! Great work ! 😎

I was in Vancouver this week looking at my New Alliance 47 meter pump. Great Video!

as a mason myself, a good pump operator is so under appreciated. some operators KILL YOU. keep up the good work bro.
@@jeffriggins9106 Appreciate that, my brother in cementitious materials 👊👊👊
@canadianconcretepumper1979 yessir !
Great video. I learnt so much. These pumps can be real dangerous. Dont drink the night before, be clear headed.
@@chrisp9538 Absolutely! In the wrong hands, they most definitely can carry deadly consequences.

Very cool. I am an operator on a vactor truck and do sewer work but that’s baby business compared to what you’re working with. Nice stuff.
@@Nujjj Appreciate brother. Our respective lines of work have their own, unique challenges for sure. Much respect 👊
Your description was incredible! Highest I’ve ever seen a pump was 6 stories so this totally dwarfs that… cool job indeed!
@@floppr8715 Thank you my man! This was definitely one of the more challenging/interesting pours which we’ve done over the years.
Gotta come to NY and see how these pumps do high-rise almost everyday.

Very cool. Is the process unique here because its for a pool pour? Is a standard suspended slab pumped the same way?

I saw the preview Saying to myself maybe it’s shot Crete but I’m like shot Crete on what in an apartment building Now I know
LOTS of folks asking "how come the feeder pump".... shotcrete was the reason here.

That is why you get $100 drones.
