    The guy ahead of the screed with the rake is totally important to allowing a proper screed. Not enough credit given these guys. He ensures the screed enough mud without holes or mounds. Good job!

      Thats the most skilled and hardest thing to learn . But mostly ive seen people assume the guy finishing behind as the main man

      Also I’ve seen a lot of companies use very inexperienced workers for that part making the guy or guys screeding with double the work

      That's why you don't piss off your graders. And you buy them a beer after work.
      If they don't like you they can make your job very difficult.

    Disregard the negative comments buddy. This video demonstrates just how different concrete guys in Australia are compared to everyone else around the world. I’m very jealous that you have the time to pace yourselves because here in America, two guys on a magnesium 2x4 race each other to the end. Each pull is a step back and a typical day in Detroit Michigan includes striking anywhere from 5000 to 20,000 square feet off by hand. Anything more is typically done with a laser screed. Stay safe brother.

    Great job screeding. Quality work. We would have done it with two guys and a 16' ft rod, but as long as you can give the customer quality, doesn't matter how you get there. Rake guy did great as well. Nothing worse, than having to rake concrete with your screed. Keep up the good work.

And what is with these concreters from overseas asking about our screeds? Surely Australia is not the only place that uses them?

    Bro this is awesome video it is long but when paying attention and looking carefully at how you move a screed especially when pulling a sludge and levelling it off, it is a repetitive basic movement. It is easy to follow. I have no experience at all in this trade but I am DIY guy and I like this video. Bro please are you able to make a short video explaining the part of a screed rail and which edge and direction that makes the concrete smooth. Just please explain more in detail. Thanks Bro

  • @cabji
    @cabji 6 років тому +4

    Half the work of concrete screeding is in what I call "quantity". It starts with the guy on the chute/pump, then the guy on the vibrator, then the guy on the rake, then the guy on the screed. If the guy on the chute/pump puts the correct quantity in, the whole screed bay is easy. The vibrator man can control it a bit with the vibrator and tells the pumpy more or less. Then the guy on the rake has to move the crete if there's too much or not enough, then the screeder after the rake. It's a team game concreting, that's why is a lot harder if you are a DIYer or doing it on your own. Either no one knows what they're meant to be doing, or you have to do everything yourself.

    That works for them but here down south we have some concrete that dries in 2 or 3 hrs from start to finish & you have to be super fast I'm talking about 20 mins & you have to put the trowel machine & we used a 18 ft magnesium screed (2x4)....

      juan14964 We are in Queensland Australia and concrete it goes off just as fast and might look slow to you but I’ll tell you now it’s a lot easier for us to do it this way so we do not have to fix nothing else out later on when it does go off really fast

      One man doing a two man job is why it took him twice as long. The raker did most of the work here he was to be so precise to be able to screed this way.

    Nice job I’m a concrete guy also , can rake well but never learned to screed yet (not paid enough 😂) it takes a year or more just to be a good raker, and screeding is way tougher on the body! What slump do you poor at looked like a 6 ? Fair amount of bleed water for no poly. I see some guys using super on here and looks a lot easier and is stronger than adding water , do you use it?
