i hate a copperhead

It was shot using 2x Canon 450D still cameras and combined the frames at 30fps, not video cameras. The interval between frames was 5 seconds most of the time. For a couple of shots (Firth trucks outside with hazard lights on) I dropped that to 2-3 second intervals.

I like this

deflection control for differential settlement and for high-point-load structures like aircraft hangers (which this appears to be)

Good video.

Lieliski, interesanti skatīties!

There were wooden chocks over the tendons to back the pump trucks over. No concrete trucks drove over the reo.

me and 2 helpers used to hand mix and finish that little bit of concrete in 8 hours...

Nice

From memory it was 200mm deep, so it was roughly 2,610m2

imagine hand screeding this lol,my back hurts already

So you can have a large floor area, with minimal cracks that you don't need to cut.

very nice. the background music is supers. Can you tell us about the music? what is the name of this song/album?

That was really cool....curious though, why a post tension slab on grade? Honest question...and no rebar. Ive never seen anything like that and want to learn.

Dont put your power trowels on that wet. Plastic makes the water come up to the surface unlike none plastic or vapor berriers. .i like to wait for surface water to be a bit less then these guys butt what a crew everybody doing there job is awesome to watch. Anyone explain to me what kind of rebar they use in this slab. Iv never seen it. Thanks

Didn't see any PT cables. Is it really post tension. They would run over and under the reinforcement.

I doubt it is a materials cost issue. The design engineer must have had a good reason, I would guess it had to do with soil issues. In any case great video, very clean, efficient operation. I don't like the heavy equip. on the tendons and the placement of the chairs during the pour, but I don't see how they could have done it differently, considering the screed and pump used. I would like to know the production rate for this pour if it is known.

' that coool... how many inch floor from top to ground

Just saw this on Timescapes. Was this done as separate shots, or speeded up video?

Dam you kids! Get off my concrete!

No drains in the floor?

How many yards?

How big was the floor slab

how are the trucks driving on the reo?

It's a great idea to use 2 pump like this ... But small quantity like this shouldn't take time like this .... I cast 2000 cubic meter in 10 hour !!!

How much did the pour cost

the music is perfect! What is it?

I don't think I have seen any grouting and tensioning of the strands in the video...

Why use the post tension cables when its a slab on the ground ?

Genis Demi watching this hurt my brain.. PT is for allowing greater spans between supports. This raft slab on ground could have just had steel reo. I can't see what they are pulling the loads to if it's all on ground?

Ryan O'Keefe That’s not the only time post tension is used. I’ve even seen it used on something as simple as a basketball court at a park. Because it seriously retards the development of cracks, so any application where that is essential, some may find it to be worth the cost.

sick of fuckwit experts who think they know more than the people that are doing that job

Never mind. Aparently I'm blind. We would do a combo of pt and steel with the pt in a sine wave shape.

That's not rebar... what is it?

Typical Work Day: 1. After 1 min., morning coffee break. (7.5 sec.) 2. Work another 52.5 sec., until lunch. (15 sec,) 3. After lunch, work for 60 sec. 4. Afternoon break: 7.5 sec. 5. Work for another 1 min, 45 sec. 6. Pick up tools: 7 1/2 seconds. 7 Drive home: about ten seconds average. Notes a. The lunch break would actually stretch the day to 5 min. 15 sec. b. One of the minutes should pay time and a half.

I'd like to know the FF #'s on that slab it doesn't look very flat to me

convince me more please !

too heavy to manage a hose that long. You would need a forklift to move it around.

PT slab on grade....genius. I would just use a layer of BRC mesh. Even is soil problem, it is still no excuse. If soil is bad, you will use suspended slab system. say you have piles or footings to support the slab. In the end the load transfer to the PT slab has to go somewhere right? why not just use pile or footing if the soil is bad. I reckon they forget to stress the tendons.. haha

What post tension on a ground slab. Well there you go it’s true then we Aussie are very far away from many countries but hell we know how to pour and finish big slabs , unlike these persons; How and who was controlling the concrete and the rest of the so so professionals I see here (NOT )

Why do we even need people to do this anymore? Looks like something that could be done autonomously pretty easily.

@davewood406

Some of that process is automated. The concrete batch plant is largely automated. Those concrete pumps are a degree of automation, the laser screed is another form of automation. A whole bunch of labor has been removed from this process already. I imagine the rest of it could be automated but won't be until the cost of manual labor outweighs the development of robots that could do every little task required and adapt to every variable within each unique job site as well without starting from zero.

Unfortunately, the most simplest and primitive jobs of all time require human skill, like brick, block, and tile laying. The same goes for making a slab. It looks easy; just pour cement and that is it, but their is more than that, you have to caress the cement and know how to do it right. This is true craftsmanship and not some low skilled job, so take some appreciation to this people, b/c no matter what they do, machines will never be able to do this, ironic isn’t it but it’s a fact not an opinion.

Lmao that must be so fucking boring, I skipped through the video because i was bored, And that was a tiny fraction of the actual job time.

Hello Firth, I’m working in the licensing team at Bored Panda, an online arts and design magazine. We’re interested in featuring some of your videos on our social media channels. Could you tell me your email address please? So I'll provide you with more details. Thank you!
