When your truck gets rejected you’ll be the one bitching. Order a flowable mix if you need one. It’s so easy, but then again if you don’t know how to ask. Don’t keep going thru life trying to put a square peg in a round hole. Ignorance is bliss
Or both. Ida walked off before the first plug was cleared. No way am I raking that shit everywhere. Mixer drivers, there are some great ones, they know who they are. Then, you have the ones that cause cold joints because they're fat ass is sitting in the gas station eating, or slowing the flow of trucks down because they are gabbing. Or the ones that just don't know what in the blue fuck they are doing. Companies don't help this either, it's so hard to get warm bodies to fill the seat, that they almost help propagate the problem. No training, just "oh you have a CDL and haven't killed anyone in the last 5 months" bam! , Hired. Never seen wet concrete before? Got a CDL ? BAM ! HIRED! here's a70 thousand pound truck with a high rotating center of gravity, Show up to a jobsite where through the lack of training, you have no fucking clue where to go, what to do, then when you inevitably start getting screamed at by the finishers because now your no clue having ass is costing everyone money and time, remember to call your company and thank them for the lack of training. It's gotta be rough. Sitting in your air conditioned truck while we work our guts out. Being able to pass anything but a gas station deli. Keep whining mixer boy
Many factors could contrbute to this fail. What you dont see is how long was the trk on the job? Could be a high psi load. It could have an accelerator admix added to the load. Driver error (not knowing his slump,getting lost going to the job). High ambient temperature.
That is a very likely factor being that it appears to be a deck poor where is it it's a high psi usually 3000 or greater and it's possible that it contains an admix like adva which a gallon can thin the mix down equivalent to 2 gallons but will also set that mud off like a firecracker in over an hour. Often a dispatch ticketing error for sending the driver out with that kind of mix design for a ride that is so long to time it out.
Forms covers only the upper part of the slab ,in order the concrete not to run under the form they required tight mix , but not that tight. A 5" slump would be ok with a wet shute.
Looks to me like he forgot to pressurize his water tank. For the amount of water, he should have been adding it didn't appear to be changing the slump at all.
Batchman here. I see a few things going on here. First, we don't know how long it took the driver to get to this job, which is probably a cash job. Even 3000 PSI will start to flash if you have to travel for an hour to get there. Recover helps but it only adds a little time. Maybe the truck sat there for awhile before pouring, even though it doesn't look like that. He probably should have stopped to check his load. I'm going to go out on a limb and say this was supposed to be at least a 5, maybe even a 6 because it looks like the finisher may want to shoot the mud to the back side. And the driver should have told them to clean the chute while he was adding water. Once you see that it's dry just ask the customer if he wants a 5, and spin him up a 5. Don't depend on a slump gauge either, trust your eyes.
Rebar on the vapor barrier and wire mesh, not enough finishers, no place for the truck to discharge with enough pitch to the chute for the concrete to come down, they hadn't wet the chute down to cool it, concrete was flash setting, finishers didn't finish clearing the plug from the chute before multiple water additions. Did I miss anything?
Sloppy mixer op didn't clean his chutes before pour started. 1:50 onward: Check-out the solid dried-on stuff when the camera looks up at the mix. No wonder it didn't flow.
Uh I wonder if his hose is clogged at the top, seems like a lot of guys neglect that. Contractor-give it 10 Driver-okay Contractor- uhh wtf, give it 10 more Driver-okay Contractor-WTF man, give it 10 more....again Driver-okay Contractor-WTF, did you even fill your spike tank Driver-uhhhh yeah I I did Contractor-I’m rejecting this load Driver-okay Contractor-🦗🦗🦗 Driver-okay Contractor-🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗uh LEAVE Driver-okay I’ve seen this happen a couple times, it’s hilarious if you are watching from a distance.
Nothing is wrong with the concrete. The driver didn't clean his shoots from the last job (ever?) so it won't slide down. Compounding it, the slope, or lack there of. Its somewhat of a flat run and the fact that the chutes have dried concrete on it and you see whats happening. The concrete guys seem like they can't comprehend what the real problem is.
Condition of the chutes is less the issue than the near-horizontal pitch of the chute. Concrete can't flow down the chute if there is no down there. On top of all that, look how far the center of the slab is from the edge of the forms. They need a creteveyor or a pump, and at least a half-dozen more finishers, and a vibratory screed.
That stuff's probably been in the drum for 45 minutes to an hour and it's already starting to kick and he should have added like 20 to 30 gallons of water right off the bat that s*** should flow out the shoot on its own without you even having to touch it at least in the beginning
That shit is about a 3 slump which isn't going to slide down all those chutes it needs to be about a six slump. I do this stuff every single day for a living. And it's probably got accelerator in it which dries it up twice as fast.
These videos cheer me up. Everyone knows that alot can go wrong with concrete but it's always good to know there are people like this. The formwork here would just rise up into the air if you made it wetter and the large holes at the bottom are already far to big. Besides that I do not know what kind of concrete that is but you cannot simply wet up concrete like that. The truck doesn't have enough water to make it run and by the time you have a garden hose ready it's already reacting. Pumps are dirt cheap.
Why did they order such thick concrete? Why not order concrete a bit more wet than that chunky gruel? Adding water is usually a bad idea, and more often than not the driver is not allowed to make such a decision without the plant's/mixer's permission, for if the driver makes the decision on his/her own then there's a good chance the driver will be responsible for any reimbursements. Basically, the fault lies with the buyer, possible the mixer too, who for some reason thought it splendid an idea to have some poor driver trying to solve an issue he did not himself cause. And another thing. When people are criticizing his drop I wonder if they've considered whether he can raise the truck or not or whether he is not allowed or physically capable to inch closer as to give him the possibility to increase the drop? Just figuring a bit here. I know a few people who have no way of raising their trucks to increase the drop for the concrete as to have it slide faster down the glide, yet people are treating this as the driver's fault when the thick concrete is not sliding down fast enough for their liking.
HA ,Argos in Port Charlotte fl .Could fuck up an orgasm. Only use them as a last resort,. Coast concrete isn't bad as far as drivers go but, dispatcher isn't too smart.. put 50+ on the ground Friday, our 5 back to back trucks showed up an hour apart. Grrrrrr
A lot of times when you get to the job, they are not ready, gotta wait for a tester, gotta finish with rhubarb wire, and sometimes traffic and distance, for me if I'm traveling to a job that's 30 minutes away and they want a 5, I'll take a 7 it'll work out to a 6 and if I have to wait maybe 5.5.
I think every mixer driver should know when a customer ask for 10 gallons you double it. Who knows what these guys ordered for him to take it that dry 🤷🏻♂️
Dude just looks at his chutes overflowing like yup that's happening oh well let these guys handle it and u no after hes done hes gonna say is it cool to rince all my chutes down on the grass
It’s not the concrete truck driver fault that isn’t flowing it’s because it’s too dry. The only thing he could if done different is wet his chutes before hand
That stuffs already started going off and the more he adds water the worse it will get because he will be outta water in no time and the slump won’t change at all
no experience what so ever! The cement mix is wrong and there is not enough water! all they had to do is add water to the mix in the truck....that will soften the flow. The driver of the truck is standing like a statue and doesnt have a clue. thats a complete fail.
Looks like a hot mix, your order was added to what was left in the bowl from the previous customer, makes the mud turn real quick, add atleast 10 litres per cubic meter to that and spin it up for Atleast 4 minutes, judging by the size of that slab you had 2-3 trucks?
What slump did they order the mud at? i've been on jobs with 10 yards where they order it at curb mud level and then they tell me they want a 6 inch slump and they got 1 percent in it. I'll add a gallon of super and add it onto their ticket whether they like it or not and throw 25 gallons in it.
It is not the truck driver's job to work the concrete. He is to deliver the concrete to the site. The driver cannot add water to the concrete without direction either from the customer or his boss from the ready mix company. It is the supplier's job to ensure that the concrete arrives on the site on time with the concrete's physical properties matching those on the mix design docs. It is the contractor's responsibility to provide access to the placement location, means of depositing the concrete in the location where it is needed, and adequate personnel to finish the surface. This job should have been placed with either a conveyor or a pump, and at least a half-dozen finishers for things to have gone smoothly. Epic fail on the part of the contractor.
Jeez what mix is this. He doesn’t even hold that much water most likely. And thats coming from a guy who carries 2 tanks on his truck. Batch mixer needed to add more aqua
What does the spec allow? I estimate a 3-inch initial slump, and I've seen a lot of project manuals that allow a three-inch max. A mid-range or high-range water reducer would have allowed improved workability without reducing strength and durability. More than anything else, they needed either a pump or a conveyor. And more finishers! These guys just hadn't though the project through.
we had a guy on his first day on his own left a trail all the way from the plant to his job. On my first day I went to the wrong job. We had two giant buildings right next to eachother and I poured at the wrong one. Luckily it was the same builder and were both pouring slabs so they just let me finish pouring it out. I felt pretty emberassed.
I duno, We've had drivers forget to wet the chute but never seen this, hard to tell without putting a tool on it, but it looks like a dead batch, even if it wasnt it sure is after he added all that water
As the driver of the truck when you first let the mud hit the chute you should be watching if it looks that dry add water but they pouring big slab so I would have got it to like 5-6 inch slump before it even hit the chute just saying common sense man
I needed to add 8 ounces of air to my load once so I filled up an empty 8 ounce redbull can of air. the tester was like wtf are you doing and I told him I was giving it wings. And then I told him to retest it again and it passed and he was so confused lol.
Here's what wrong,after dumping the concrete in the chute the first time,they should have scraped the dry mud out of the chute. And the second time.The driver doesn't have the Hopper up and he seems either lazy or he's new. The laborer should have had a shovel also and for the size of the job,there should have been at least 2 more guys. These two don't seem too ambitious either. This is a case of "You get what you pay for" I would be so pissed if this was my job site.

Everyone wants to “wet it up” how bout you order a flowable mix from the start.
how about you find a new job if youre juat gonna bitch

Or use a pump
Talk about no Slump
It's clearly could have been a rookie driver error, and not prepping the slump to the correct spec
This must be a Friday afternoon job that dispatched at 4pm😂
😂😂😂😂😂
I’ll bet it says 5 inch slump on his ticket. But yet he brings it at a zero. Get it to a 7 and let it fly.
Yep. They never pour what it says on the ticket. He should have raked down the first stuff. Guess he didn't look at it before he left
Shit if i know its a house slap 7 half baby no matter what
@captain poopy pants bro all the time
1200 - 1300 on the meter never lets you down and hardly gets you rejected...unless its shotcrete and you didn't know
i like 7 better
0" slump lol. Add WATER.
CHRIS BROESKY lol
Looks like they needed it dry just in that one spot though.
only a ready mix driver would understand this
The truck driver is still standing there looking clueless til this day.
😂😂
The issue is the guy who ordered that concrete, he should have ordered a wet mix the cheap bastard.
Looks like hot concrete
Ain't the driver's fault
@@ramblin_man23 could be, depending on what the requested slump was. Could have locked the chute for them at least though.
I’m not even there. I’m in the comfort of my own home and I still threw a shovel and stormed off.

Am I the only one that sees the 8" gap from the form board to the bottom? If they poured it at a 6-7 it would all run out!
You can put plastic though. These guys are terrible
They should've built it up with dirt, to keep the concrete from flowing out
Yo could also use plywood or pegboard
Nope. The concrete needs loads of water. That is a dry mix
I guess the dispatcher at the plant thought he was joking when he said "give me 30 gallons"

Your right on. 30 yrs doing that . Sad day for them
send the truck back and fire the driver
How the hell did they plan to get the concrete all the way to the far end of the slab? A pump or a conveyor would have been a much better way to go.

At least you didn't have our guy " to wet Chet" always shows up with a 6 slump.

Damn where was the verfia at for this truck bc he clearly can't slump this
Looks like a load of wet base Put 30 in and blow it over the sides of the chutes. Or just put a slick pack in the mix 😆
That was dry as hell. Like a 2 or 3 inch slump.
MAN ADD SOME FUCKING WATER!!! 30 GALLONS!!!
Rookie driver for sure
Clueless mixer driver, chutes were caked in dried concrete. The guys placing it aren’t any smarted either

Should have refused the delivery 🚚 !
As the driver of the truck when you first let the mud hit the chute you should be watching if it looks that dry add water but they pouring big slab so I would have got it to like 5-6 inch slump before it even hit the chute just saying common sense man
Looks like he didn't travel very far or his drum wasn't spinning in transit. It takes a minimum of 70 rotations to complete a mix.
Everything in the lense of this camera is wrong. On the upshot, these guys and that form can always be used as a bad example!

You can always add water but you can't dry it up. Not without it getting hot
They will be finished by sundown - tomorrow.
Damn that’s sad 😞
Here's what wrong,after dumping the concrete in the chute the first time,they should have scraped the dry mud out of the chute. And the second time.The driver doesn't have the Hopper up and he seems either lazy or he's new. The laborer should have had a shovel also and for the size of the job,there should have been at least 2 more guys. These two don't seem too ambitious either. This is a case of "You get what you pay for" I would be so pissed if this was my job site.
Always the new guys!!!😄😄😄
