We blow out from the placing boom down to a bucket covered with plastic but before that we pump up grout so we aren’t blowing back concrete it’s grout let’s chance of rock pack or plug and easier on the equipment

Same here. Usually we blow into a bucket or concrete bin. Logistical challenges on this site is why it was done the less conventional way.

Praise The Algorithm for delivering me here, that was way more interesting than I expected! Your assistant really got into the rhythm by the end

He’s too busy actually pumping concrete 😂😂😂

I think a good video would be the process of explaining how a placing boom actually ends up on a tower. i.e the convos you have with the engineers/contractors before the pedestal even makes it on the building. Then that first set up of the pedestal and the boom and any testing you do before hand. side note: maybe im biased because our first placing boom job is coming up in a few months 😅

Привет Скотт из России, я тоже качаю от бункира трассой до 150 метров ...

Here in Ontario I've seen them pump back down into the cement mixer. Pumping line is disconnected from the pumper, changed over to upside "J" pipe with a ball catcher cage on the short "J" side and placeed into the mixer hopper opening. Is there a reason why you don't take advantage of dumping out, cleaning into the mixer? Love your channel 🤙

Typically we will blow back into a concrete bin. Logistical challenges at this particular site is why it’s not being blown out back to street level as per usual. Most companies here have done away with blowing back into the mixer. There were several incidents of the candy cane popping out of the mixer and causing chaos. Not saying that it’s not a good way of doing, our market just couldn’t seem to dial it in constantly/reliably. Appreciate you following the channel and taking part in the comments. That’s what it’s all about. 👌👌👌

I've done that on a few jobs. Much prefer just blowing through diversion valve into a rock bin though, smallest chance of issues.

“You cant just let a sponge go like that” 😂 can tell who is a owner operator and worried about bottom line 24/7 vs who is just there because they love concrete pumping/collecting a paycheck 🤣

Negative. Just the way we wound up piecing it all together. We had originally filmed this all (top and bottom) on the same day, but came to find out that our camera on the bottom was set to time-lapse mode (doh!!!!), so Dan filmed the bottom again on a separate day and we pieced it all together as best we could.

Fr a three way works best could wash out the pump and the whole system at the same time just back up the tree into the truck and chain the tree to the truck and have a blast no mess or no worry’s
