Hi all,
I am working on a few interconnecting slabs presently all 2.4m by 2.4m and doing one every other day. I have found it easiest if I just load the mixer dry and then add the water until it overflows from the mixer into the concrete form. I never actually tilt/pour/lift the mixer once. It just slumps out and I rake it about. Kind of like an auto pour feature. Has anyone else used this method? It seems to work well and as a one man band doing this work it helps speed things up alot. A 2.4m by 2.4m 4inch slab takes me roughly 2hours.
Please share your comments, thanks
