That shit look easy but is the hardest job ever trust me

Incredible how strong concrete is. One moment it’s fluid and the other moment it holds a 100+ meter building up.

Anybody who knows this trade...and I do mean the real masons,not the wannabes,know with this kind of job site,You do what you can.Somedays are better then others,somedays you get more help then others.Its rough and it’s all heart that gets you through the day.NOT one person is the best!!!Its a team effort always,sometimes you don’t get the best product,but like a battle,you try,you learn,then if you have to ,you lick your wounds and try again another day .!!!

Do people understand how god damn painful it gets to drag that screet board all day on a 10k sqft pour. It f'ing sucks. Im never doing concrete again. I have a lot of respect for anyone who does.

I poured concrete for almost 8 years. It's one of the toughest jobs out there.

I'm from Dublin Ireland and I have worked on Concrete Pump's for 20+year's from line pump's to a 63m Putzmister whould love to go over to the USA for a little bit just to see how different thing's are done. And to see if can learn anything new and maybe show you how we do things in IRELAND.

I guess I'm the only person that says the pump guy did a great job getting that hose through the window without tearing up the place. I've pumped mud for 14 years. Love seeing a gravy day at the office.

Thanks for posting this. Coming from New York City, watching many a high-rise go up, I have always wanted to see the action up on the working deck when the floor slab was being poured. Can't see this from the ground. This video was instructional as to how it's done. It's a labor-intensive process, with skilled workers screeding, floating and troweling. I'll bet those hard workers go home tired after a day of pouring. Terrific video!!

Homeboy is makin like 60 bucks an hour to flip an elevator switch up and down all day

Hard job hard workers great satisfaction to know that you were part of building the building!

That's a tough job because your bent over and stooped a lot of the time. That can be murderous day in and day out.

Great upload, watched this on my break, loved it!

Local 692 here out of Indiana! Nice work brother and stay safe out there!

Beautiful weather for concrete

A good crew is a thing of beauty. Strong work!

I live out here in Washington and I'm joining this local I start Monday and I'm excited. Watching this videos to have an idea of what to expect

I was a Superintendent, I have seen and walked on alot of Concrete. I can tell you this, This is a excellent flat work crew, I suspect they do it all. The pumper operator 👍 the rakers were Fantastic 👏 the guys on screeds have great eyes 👀 The rakers get serious props because I didn't see more than 3/4" of mud behind the screed. The finishers look top notch as well. Respect boys keep up the good work. Loose that Turner Hivis vest.

Every human has a skill, MUCH LOVE TO these guys putting in work

Nothing but respect fellas

We do it here in LA basically the same way. 15k sf deck a 24 col on avg a core on a 5 day cycle. Pour at 80 to 100cy per hour poured out in 4 hours. Drop columns and pour those too. We stopped taking the core up ahead for the most part. So we catch that too. Done!done!lets go 50+ stories all day long. Only difference is we work in the sun. Good job!

I pour little job's like driveways and patios but you guy's are the pro's

Never seen people stop to cover foot prints. Usually just kick it with your feet while doing it. Great work.

Concrete is soooo useful & beautiful! 😍😍

thanks for your video.amazing workers.

amazing video ! inspire me a lot ! I saw the columns contain so many steel reins, but notice that the floor didn't have much steel reins in it. here i have a question: did i miss some procedures or the floor do have less steel rein? the floor seems like 4-5 inch thick.

Love concrete work. Mysely best concrete men .london no .1 concrete finisher

Aqui Brasil, construção de vocês muito linda perfeita ...

In Australia we say rough as guts

Saludos desde Vancouver Canadá 🇨🇦. Hey ahí no conocen la mágic ?

Nice music and good educational video.

I have a question. If someone can answer me, that would be appreciated. Do you have to put something over the pex water lines sticking out of the concrete Like a sheath of sorts?

Love the video brother! I'm wit Local 40 here in RI cement mason 2 year apprentice! Love the music my Christian brother! We need more men of God in this line of work! Praise God for you!!

I'd love to work like that. Atm im in a concrete factory and that shit is rough, standing there and chopping concrete for 8-10 hrs a day is not really anything for me, but the pay is good atleast :P

How did you get the boom pump confined in the opening? Why are you using that thing to screed? My screed has a spirit level on the handle. I like how the slabs getting done in sections I can see the forms. If its done in sections it will cure unevenly that's why the colour changes. I don't have a problem with the look of the column timber but I've had a column accident and that shit is leaning. I was doing a course. I suggested that they use a scaffold system on formwork columns.

Why column Formwork in place before concreting? Is it no space for storage?

The weather in Texas hardens cement real quick

Never thought I would watch this for 11 minutes, but I just did :-) Cut the music for the next one please... Good work though!

This looks so much fun😂

And that's how cooperation looks like! Not like in Poland ? Nice work gentelmans 💪💪👊👊

Good job guys.

Hope those columns are in the right spot.

Why there is no bar fixing on the slab and just pour the concrete on top?who can tell me

Is this a roof? There's sooo small rebar quantity

Can sum1 pls explain what is being done at 7.10 onwards

Good job and work

No sleeve or conduit on water lines?? Ok

Don't they have remote robot machine to smooth out the pour?

The concrete has reached its sitting time after 4hrs that is why they can walk on for power floating.

What is that cold mud an you work it an it get hard An everyone can play with that mud an paint 🎨 it too. Wow 😳 that looks fun work

So this music is playing for the guys to enjoy?

They allow pex in highrises? And yeah no extra conduit for it?

Crazy job

Proud to be #UNION440!

I started Rodbusting today, aha. Crazy shit

where the heck is the rebar in that slab? what hold together the concrete? :D cos overtime it will crack up and fall apart without a rebar mesh

i think this the best job in the world

592 philly here, looks good.

Werk werk werk very nice and and good job 💪👌💙

Im looking for the rebars. Is this a post-tensioning system or sth? Plz express these ambiguities in next vids.

Dont you guys have to worry about levels?

How does the rain affect construction in seattle?

Holy shit people still are working i Seattle!

nice job!

what part of the building is that location????

Why are there no plumbing drains or vents

How much does that elevator operator make?

This slab looks simple and slow pace and where is all the rebar ?

I live in Florida wish we had big unions lik this.... Hahaha I have been pouring concrete for 12hrs straight 3in slump all day n I find myself watching u guys pour concrete 2 unwined. LoL I guess the saying is true u gotta b a lil crazy 2 do this shit

So they have to keep polishing the surface until the building is sold? Dang.

I miss the high rise life

Fuck yeasss I used to work for SAK.. Doing the same for years downtown 💯💯

got in 1983, old school.

How deep was that pour?

Come south Florida let’s Baker boys get down with you’ll man you’ll did a good job man

nuff respect !

is it only me, or does anyone else feel that the reinforcement for the floor looks so insufficient

buenos videos construccion

Is the concrete poured over a wood deck first? And then the wood removed afterwards?

Bravo!

Why was there all the video? I came here for the music.

610 Laborers local in the House Marguerite Concrete we live for this shit Boston Strong

Should have put some mariachi music....nice vid!

These kats operate like a well-oiled machine!

Last time I checked, adding water to the surface makes the concrete weak and as a result, causes the cream to flake off over times.

i m also QA/ QC Engineer in Gulf for Construction Work that’s y i m Asking @
