@RJCAM2020 G M is definitely correct. Concrete has to go through a slump test and this is very wet mix, you could use a vibration tool but its kind of like using a vibration tool in a milkshake, there really aren't that many voids to remove.
Morning josh well the shop is coming along that will be up before you no it going to be a big place at least you will beable to put all your stuff in the shop and they will be safe you are getting there josh be safe untill next time.
great job Josh we just pour 120 yard for a red Irion building 85x40 with 20 foot lean-to's with 4x4x4 piers, I had to elevate our building due to future storm flooding in the RGV. You are probably looking at 86 to 88 more yards good luck. we had been waiting ourselves for several years for our build. Congratulations it feels great to get it done.
Chandler Concrete is one of my customers, I install the automation systems on concrete plants around the country. Can't wait to see the slab being poured.
I’m a retired NYC concrete laborer! And I watched my brother in law drive a concrete buggy on the edge of the decking on a 65 story high rise! Lol seeing those things brought back memories!👌👍✌️🇺🇸
Josh. I’m a retired construction superintendent pouring the footings first is the best way. Lock the anchor bolts in place. Then come back to pour the slab. Your bolts will be dead centers not all over the place. Looking great. From my hill top in. Sc
For sure. It’s been decades since I helped my dad who was a builder with a concrete pour. Get it set up right. The big bolts set in the concrete look strong.
It looks like those guys are doing a nice job for you! They seem to have it all nail down! I can't get over seeing a footer that shallow. Our frost line is over 2 feet deep so our footers have to be at least 3 feet deep at the shallowest part of the footer.
Really looking good Josh, you have a whole lot of engineering going on there. Really looking forward to seeing your shop finished, and see how you organize your tools and equipment. Good Job! 👍
Heck yeah, when I was pouring walls and concrete construction we always tried to get the owner to go ahead and have the plumbing in the floors just in case they decide they want a sink, bathroom or shower. Even if they don't and sell their property the plumbing makes the building worth more money to the next owner. Take care, be safe, and have fun regardless.
Nice!!! We do it a little different, never poured footing first on a slab for mono pour. Usually pour the whole thing. We just finished a 65 x 120 with 14’ eves. Tractor and equipment barn for one of the Native American reservations. Mueller steel buildings is what we use mostly but have used steel master and Magnum steel. It’s gonna feel like a stadium there Josh but they fill up quick let me tell you!!!!
You should edited in a whole crowd of people saying wooo on the second time you said it. I just didn’t feel like their hearts were in that wooo lol 😝 your house is coming along… good job .. dedication!
These are real working men that don't play beta male games from a "youtube personality". They just get the job done. And they don't take lip off females either.
Very cool to see the concrete poured…just two hours?! Wow!! Nice video with the drone footage, too. It’s one thing to have a plan, but it’s another to have a great plan and great execution. You’re doing great things, Josh. I’m looking forward to seeing the rest of the concrete pour when the time comes and wondering how the finishers smooth out that gigantic-sized pad. It’s like icing an enormous cake, ha! Cool video!
It funny when ever u pictures a building in your head it looks a lot bigger in your head than it is in rill life at least that the way it is for me ever time I build something that how it is for me
Great video. Nice that the foundation pads don't have to be that deep. Up where I am at (outside of Duluth, MN) I have to go down 60" when I build my shop.
The Guy running that little truck with concrete. The first dump in the footer. Knocked the rebar off center in that corner. I hope he didnt knock the bolts off by dumping it way too fast..UGH..Hopefully they readjusted that corner because the whole thing moved...Just wondering if you seen that Josh. Other then that one thing Its looking good.
I would definitely make accommodation for bathroom and floor drains. Also surprised this was not a monolithic pad, footings and floor together in one pour since it is for a steel building. Looks good.
Going to be a great shop!! BUT if It was my shop, and I was there, at the 7:55 mark, when the buggie driver dumped and slammed the crete in and moved the rebar cage, and into the form, they would have stopped on the spot! Redone everything, sent that truck home, and started over!!
Lol I’ll bet you would. I agree that was a bit of a hard dump but you aren’t sending 15 men and 5 concrete trucks away because one little support turned over buddy
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer You want to bet on that? What happens, or who is going to pay when your beams don't line up and fit correct? You are!!!!! Not the the cheap labor driving the buggie! I watch all you videos, and have for a long time, but do me a favor, don't complain if there is a issue, please. Just mention this post. Thank You Josh, you do well, just looking out for the good!, Nothing to lol about
@@davidlang576 it's a good point, sir. I'll just say that for anybody trying to get something done right now, it will be so much more difficult. Even more than usual, at every turn and step in the build the owner is going to have to make value judgments. This crew was surely not the highest bid and with that may come some extra effort on the back end. The what looked to be about 12" slump gave me a twinge for the whole placement. But in the end, I think it will all work out and Josh will be able to tackle whatever lies ahead. We'll get to see as it happens...! 😁 cheers men and well wishes!
Watch the anchor bolts. The stayed right where they were supposed to. Also they later picked up and dropped the bolts to get rid of any air pockets. You can’t sweat the small stuff. That pier is so over engineered that you could lose 50% of the rebar and still be way over uplift capacity. If were talking door casing sure, don’t be so rough. But with these footings , get them filled!
I doubt if you would sent all those guys home.. Shit happens on pours. Would of cost more money.. For sure your not getting any money back from the concrete company. Worst you maybe fired the guy who did it. Take a deep breath address the situation .. Hold one of the trucks back.. Have the guys fix it or block it off counting with pour.. How do I know? it happen to me.. ✅✅💯💯.. Cost me about 600 bucks.. and I still bought lunch..IJS
The drum spins on to concrete truck so the concrete dont separate. Actually the faster the drum spins the concrete will harden faster. This is because of the heat from friction.
How much is a yard of concrete nowadays? If the concrete is 6 inches thick and the building is 112ft x 56ft it will take a little over 116 yards of concrete.
I'm happy that you can build the building. I noticed that you used Chandler concrete.... Their cost of concrete is usually about 1/3 more expensive than most concrete companies
Well that first cart load racked the rebar,forms and anchor bolts when he slammed it in there. I don't wanna use that contractor for my shop foundation. Why didn't they just drive the concrete truck around the outer edge of the slab forms and let concrete ease in the foundation forms.....
It's gonna be great for you to finally get this finished I remember you talking about this in some of the first videos that I watched. By the way I noticed on the first corner when the concrete was dumped that it moved the corner grid a t least it looked like it, nice video.
Josh.....it would have been cheaper if you would've done an monolithic pour, and just as strong too...in fact if you are concerned, you could've used Fiber Crete, and the cost of fiber would've been covered by the savings of pouring your piers and footers. Fiber Crete has an 79 percent reduction in cracks and shrinkage plus the strength would've been rated with a Highway mix!
I hope someone was paying attention and pulled that first footing back into position after the concrete pour guy pushed it around. Luckily the bolts were braced externally and stayed in position. I would have expected a deeper pier footing, but if it’s signed off then that’s all that matters. The Germans have developed a neat way of saving on concrete by inserting plastic balls in a grid pattern between two fixed rebar grids. Just when you think there is only one way to do something, along comes a better idea… 😬 This is going to be great to have an inside space to work in. Are you planning on putting a vehicle lift in there? Might need the rebar placing before you pour that pad, it’s easier to do that now and not need it, than to do it later. I was expecting to see you plan one for the building as you have so many farm trucks needing maintenance now, Andrew Camarta is always using his. Actually a hoist might be useful too, tractors are heavy machines
I didn't see anyone using a Vibration tool to ensure the Air Pockets are expelled on the Footings.
Is that due to the thickness?
Shallow footings. These aren't formed walls.
@RJCAM2020 that's pretty wet concrete poured during the cooler parts of the year and you can see there is no open cavities where air can be trapped.
@RJCAM2020 G M is definitely correct. Concrete has to go through a slump test and this is very wet mix, you could use a vibration tool but its kind of like using a vibration tool in a milkshake, there really aren't that many voids to remove.

WoooooooooooooHeeeeeeeeeeeHeeeeeeeeeee!!!Alright!!!!!!!🤗🤗🤗🤗
Awesome Josh I'm happy for you buddy
In Concrete We Trust
Hi.... Josh, thank you for showing your video homestead 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 🏡🎥👍👍👍
That's a nice size of building
LOOKS Great...
Hey Josh thank you for the video and at least you're getting her done and that is a good thing woo just a lot of money but you don't have a choice
You really needed this!
So so bad ass Josh!! I’m so excited for you!
It's awesome to see your dreams coming true Josh. You've been talking about this for years. Congratulations my friend.
Ok, I’m ready for the next pour.
The rebar supports are called chairs and the rebar grid’s are called mats typically
Killer shop looks good

Great idea to plan ahead with the plumbing. I wish I had added plumbing before the concrete was down in our 40x60.
Chandler Concrete is one of my customers, I install the automation systems on concrete plants around the country. Can't wait to see the slab being poured.
You are building a great legacy. 👍
Nice American built Multiquipt tools as well.
Wow that will be an awesome shop
I’m a retired NYC concrete laborer! And I watched my brother in law drive a concrete buggy on the edge of the decking on a 65 story high rise! Lol seeing those things brought back memories!👌👍✌️🇺🇸
Man josh I can't wait to come see your shop and be able to give u a hand working I'm saving my vacation for the stoney ridge farm 🇺🇸
One step forward. I am loving to see it come together.
Thanks Tony! You'll have to come by sometime and see it for yourself buddy!
Wow ,
family will soon find you relaxing in your favorite shop recliner,enjoying the shop. 👍
I gotta admit, I'm a little jealous, that is going to be an awesome building 😎
Hope so!
Looking good
Josh, looks like your shop is on a great start. It’s gona be fun watching the floor being poured. Good luck!
Congratulations Josh!.. I know you have to be excited getting these first stages of construction started on the Mega Shop!

New shop is looking awesome so can't wait for floor pour and building it keep up the good work
Lots of difference between an agricultural building and a residential building
Moving along nicely Josh. Things are not cheap anymore and only going to get higher in costs. Be safe out there, farmer rod
Really wet mix there...4/5 slump, but that will help it run. Haven't seen one of those 'Georgia buggies' moving concrete in a while.
Hi Josh,been following along,Ed from Vermont
Georgia Buggies!
Really looking good Josh, you have a whole lot of engineering going on there. Really looking forward to seeing your shop finished, and see how you organize your tools and equipment. Good Job! 👍
Surprised no gravel and plastic under the concrete. Just on the dirt.
I already know this shops gonna be awesome just lookin at its base now
Very cool seeing the process, thanks Josh! Woooo!
Thanks Doug!
That’s going to be one nice shop with all that equipment you have.
Looks good , Josh, my prior lofe as an Engiineer for Exxon/ExxonMobil ,in charge of Construction and Environmental for service stations
You’re off to a great start! It’s gonna be an awesome “mega shop”! Take care and I’ll see ya on the next one…
Wow, Josh that was very interesting. Very structurally sound. That much concrete, nothing dhould ever move it. Gonna be a great shop.
Hey Josh 👋everything is looking great wooo. 👍
A huge investment & improvement. Most farms of a few hundred acres have nothing like this though not many farmers have a global following.
Josh, that's going to be an AWESOME shop. Thanks for sharing this project👍👍👍👍👍😸🤗🐺
That’s going to be one heck of a nice shop !!
Good start on getting thing solidified!

Lotta mud being poured there Josh. Looks like the crew had their act together. Shop will be HUGE when you are done.
That’s going to be a great building Josh
The 1 thing I wish I did was put an outlet in the center of mine. One of those..."damn, too late" kinda things. Wish I suggested it before this 😌
Josh the shop is gonna be awesome man can't wait to see all the great projects. You deserve it buddy be safe and hope everything is going well. Woo
Looking Josh huge building
shop looks awesome
Looking good Josh! Won’t be long before the building delivers and we’ll be setting steel.
Thanks Toby! I'm ready for ya....but my bank account keeps saying "OUCH!" lol

Mono the best way.. 💯💯
That would drive me crazy, rebars were moving all over the place.
You need one of those wheel barrows on your farm, looks handy.
I just found your channel yesterday but really like it. People like u inspire me to make better concrete videos! Thanks guys, BTW great video
welcome to the channel brotha!
You should edited in a whole crowd of people saying wooo on the second time you said it. I just didn’t feel like their hearts were in that wooo lol 😝 your house is coming along… good job .. dedication!

Josh, you are going to have an assume shop when finished, and a great addition to the farm. 👍
Loving the progress you're making!
That power Georgia Buggy makes it easier. We either had to use ones you had to push or chase it in troughs.
Very cool to see the concrete poured…just two hours?! Wow!! Nice video with the drone footage, too. It’s one thing to have a plan, but it’s another to have a great plan and great execution.

50' x 112' x 6" gives you about 104 cubic yards of concrete according to the online concrete calculator. That is a big building.
Not including footings
Looks great man!
The inspector does not need to see the piping now buried in concrete before getting the permit?
Did you need a permit for the footing and pour?
No vibration of the footings?
It funny when ever u pictures a building in your head it looks a lot bigger in your head than it is in rill life at least that the way it is for me ever time I build something that how it is for me
Poultry porcessing center
Great video. Nice that the foundation pads don't have to be that deep. Up where I am at (outside of Duluth, MN) I have to go down 60" when I build my shop.

Always said concrete was probably one of the most important inventions.It and wireless communication.66 thou no wonder they call it a pour.

Concrete definitely will make a man out of you it's definitely a get in to shape job if you want to work
Rebar is measured in 1/8 intervals, so a 5/8" rebar would be #5. Food for thought an Iron worker would call it #5.
The drum spins on to concrete truck so the concrete dont separate. Actually the faster the drum spins the concrete will harden faster. This is because of the heat from friction.

Georgia buggy lol not a wheel barrow
lol....aggregate not rock, soil not dirt, tyre not tire? Man...we could go on for days brotha lol
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer haha
In Colorado the footer depth has to be 36'' minimum, surprised how shallow the footer is.
Frost line here is 18 inches
You should do things Vets
Well that first cart load racked the rebar,forms and anchor bolts when he slammed it in there. I don't wanna use that contractor for my shop foundation. Why didn't they just drive the concrete truck around the outer edge of the slab forms and let concrete ease in the foundation forms.....
I would have set aside an area with a underground storm shelter/safe area close to the outer wall for easy escape just in case.....you never know.
Water table is too high my friend. But I’ve got a plan. Trust me 😉
Fun fact, a job that size we do with two guys.
I’ll bet
Oh that’s nothing. I can do it by myself and run the concrete truck at the same time.😁
👍👍🙏🏻🙏🏻

Are you putting in a floor drain
4 of them
I didn’t like that first corner drop of concrete …he dumped it in awfully fast and disrupted all the rebar.
They did it a few times, yikes!
Why did they pour the footings first? When they poured my 50x85 they did it all in the same day.
